Doit is a retired US Army officer.  He flew as an aviator in Viet Nam, and served as Chief Instructor at the US Army Maintenance Test Pilots School, Ft Eustis, VA.  After retirement from the US Army he flew helicopters off of tuna boats in the South Pacific until he was grounded due to loss of hearing.  He then worked as a Driver Trainer for J.B. Hunt Transport, training new drivers over-the-road to give them "road sense" prior to them being assigned their own truck.  In this capacity during the timeframe of 1986-1989 Doit made over 100 trips to the west coast.
            During his tenure as a driver for J.B. Hunt, he founded a Christian Ministry to and for the drivers on the road.   This Ministry was named the "J.B. Hunt Lighthouse Team".  On 17 June 1994 he was ordained to Christian Service, and remains a Minister of the Gospel, licensed in the State of West Virginia.
         Donna always a mother & home maker worked out of the home twice. One year as the Secretary at the Fredericks Jr. High School, Fredericks, OK, and again for approximately five years as a clerk in Michels Drug Store, West Union, WV. However her primary mission was and has always been that of a mother, housewife, friend, confident & companion to her family and friends. She has always performed superlatively all of these duties and now relishes the role of "Mam-Maw".
          The Web Master has received much advice relative the composition of this web site. Therefore, to try to accomodate everyone, he is going to attempt to convert it to a new format, so we might chronicle our travels (hopefully with photos), and you can respond. To respond just click on the underlined e-mail address at the top of the page. This way the responses will be private to us. Hope to have this new system up and running just as soon as the Web Master can absorb "Web Pages For Dummies!". 

          The Summer is almost gone and the feel of Autumn is in the air on Lick Run. We have had a very good summer, and the Lord continues to bless us beyond measure. After a 35 year hiatus we have returned to motorcycles. Doit had originally thought that we would ride and travel only, but the Lord seems to project us in another direction. We have been connected (divinely we believe) with the Christian Motorcyclist Association (CMA). While we like the christian fellowship it is the ministry of the CMA that is drawing us. If any of you have an interest in motorcycles and christian ministry, we would wholeheartedly encourage you to go to www.cmausa.org and consider the CMA.

          Had a wonderful visit with three of our grandchildren for almost two weeks, and it is a blessing for us to be able to watch them grow and develop. Their mother and father are doing a masterful job of parenting in our estimation. Our daughter Dana visited from out west, and that was especially joyful for us also.

          This fall we have a grandchildren sitting appointment for several days. Then we plan to travel to Arkansas for the CMA "Changing of the Colors" which is the annual event capping CMA's year. Of course there is the holiday season just ahead, and there is much to do in our church. We stay engaged on a daily basis and love the lifestyle the Lord has so graciously allowed us to live.
