Doye “Buck” Turley, 90, of Stephenville, passed away on August 3, 2022. Services were held on August 5 and he was laid to rest at the West End Cemetery in Stephenville, Tx. Doye was born September 16, 1931 in Erath County to A. G. Turley and Bertha “Merrill” Turley. He said that on the same night that he was born, a colt was also born and for this reason, his grandmother gave him the nickname ‘Buckshot’. From that time on, he was known as “Buck”.

He was a member of a band, The Sunset Playboys, around 1955. He played the steel guitar and said that after a year or so, they decided they had to quit and get real jobs.

Elvis had arrived ahead of the vehicle loaded with the band’s instruments and when it came almost time for him to go on stage, Elvis was without a guitar.
