I am so sorry to hear that Floyd passed away. It was my great privilege to work with Floyd and Gail during their time in Shreveport after Katrina. My thoughts and prayers are with the family as they grieve the passing of this wonderful man.

Floyd was an exemplary man in every facet of his life: husband, father, friend, professional, in the church and in the community.. He had a smile and a kind word for every one. He will live on in the lives of all he touched.

Love and prayers,

Aurora and Tom

Gail and Family,
Just a short while ago Jenni called and told me about Floyd's passing. Ann, a former neighbor, notified her. I am sorry to receive this news and yet am so glad that we were reunited last year in two obvious divine appointments at the hair salon and at N.O. Hamburger & Seafood. It was fun being next door neighbors in Lakeview for a few years when our children were young. There are fond memories. Please know that my thoughts of condolence are with you now and in coming months. Blessings to all of you at this sad time.

Dear Gail, Ken, and Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Floyd's death. He was a dear man. I felt like I was a
part of you family for twenty years--and still miss you! Tucson is a great place
to live, but it's not New Orleans. Know for sure that my thoughts are with you at this very sad time.
Many hugs, Glenda Johnson

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. The passing of a loved one is heartbreaking. What helps me to cope is the loving support I receive from those who care about me. 1 Peter chapter 5 verse 7 say to "throw all your anxiety on him [God] because he cares for you." Although it will take time to heal this thought continues to comfort me when anxieties and sadness overwhelm me. I hope you find consolation from this as well.

July 30, 2017

My friend I know that God is with you. You have been a true Christian all your life.
I was one of your first customers with Liberty Mutual and you were very trust worthy. May God's love be with you always.
