Doyle Miller Has Left the Bandstand……

My very good friend and fellow trumpet player Doyle Miller has past away and I will miss him greatly.

Doyle Miller and I played together from the first show I played when moving to Branson and we played together until the last show I played in Branson. During that time we traded jobs and performed in my trumpet ensemble for many years. To better understand how I felt about performing with him, please read an earlier post I did about him and you will understand why I miss him.

Who Is My Favorite Trumpet Player?
