Resident Spotlight

This month we would like to introduce Patrick “PJ” Doyle. He grew up in Bandera, Texas. PJ has lead an interesting life. He started riding calves at 3 years old and decided that he was going to be a bullrider. He started competitive bullriding at 15 years old and one everything from trophy buckles to saddles. PJ endured the physical impact of this sport and has had numerous severe injuries.

PJ left bullriding and starting running because his wife wanted a running partner. Eventually he was running competitively. Below in the photo you can see all his ribbons.

PJ and his wife have a son and a daughter.

If PJ had advice for you he would tell you that life is short and you never know what is going to happen.

We are so glad PJ came to be a part of the CelesteCare family.

We are so glad Betsy came to be a part of the CelesteCare family.
