Musician Mark Doyle unexpectedly passed away Thursday night.

Doyle, who has played with countless bands including Little Richard’s, was found in his house by friends late Thursday after he didn’t respond to a text message. His best friend, Angela Wright Neilson, became concerned when he didn’t respond and sent her husband to check on him.

The Vicksburg Daily News will have more on this sad news, but for now, enjoy these pictures of Mark with the biggest names in Rock ‘n Roll.

Fond memories.

Endlessly humble and wickedly funny, if you met Mark and didn’t know who he was, you still wouldn’t know who he was other than a kind, witty, and fun person to be around.

Funeral arrangements are pending.
