Ferrelle Wayne “Pete” Doss, of Evington, Virginia, passed away on January 1, 2024, at the age of 99. Born on May 17, 1924, in Appomattox, VA.

 

Pete proudly served in the Navy during World War II aboard the USS Denver. Following his honorable discharge, he returned home and enjoyed a 65-year marriage with Lorene Miles Doss. He spent the majority of his career as a construction machine operator. Pete was an outdoor enthusiast, with a passion for gardening, yard work, fishing, and hunting. His faith in Jesus Christ played a central role in his life.
