Posted at the FL Club:
Does anyone recall Wayne L. Doty, CN agent & manager at MKO and PPF in the 1960s?
Need info on when he left FL and whereabouts.
Last record I have is the 1974 ALEA seniority list which shows him starting in 1957.
The SSDI shows a Wayne L. Doty dying in Oct 1993, age 62, in Wasco Oregon.
Any info appreciated.

I came to TUL in early 1970 from BVO and Wayne was there when I came.
I always wondered what happened to him. 
He was a swell person, a good worker and a good friend. 
Everybody liked him  
He was around Tulsa for a while after he left the company and one day he just disappeared. 
His wife was name Peggy.  
I'm sorry I cannot not give you dates - my memory of years is poor. 
I wish many times that I had kept a diary of my years with FL. 
I just remember the hi lites but oh what stories I could tell if I had kept a record. 
Hope this little bit on Wayne helps.

There are 14 Wayne Dotys in the SSDI
so I need a birthdate to pin down which is him.

W L DOTY
Emp# 03369
TUL station agent
DOB 9/23/27
DOH 4/1/57
Per the Dec 1970 Frontier employees roster.
He is shown on the Jan 1974 agent seniority list
but not on the Jul 1978 seniority list
so I will show him leaving in 1976.
I don't have any seniority lists between the dates above.

The Kansas City Times from Kansas City, Missouri · April 19, 1961
Parsons—Business at the Central Airlines office of the Tri-City airport west of here is gaining, 
but the first month’s business is below minimum standards, according to Wayne L. Doty, airline manager. 
A total of 103 persons boarded planes at Tri-City during the first month of service.
-https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/59024676/
Central started service to the Tri-Cities, PPF, on Mar 13, 1961
so it looks like Wayne opened the station.
I dn't have any Central newsletters from that time period to check.
