Lloyd was truly a friend to all that knew him. His selflessness for putting the needs of others ahead of his own, and his genuine concern for the well being of others, not just their physical but spiritual as well, was and still is an inspiration to all of us. If we remember anything about Lloyd let it be that he Loved his family and "One person Can make a difference" This world will miss you my friend.

Only thing I can think of is a quote from an old George Jones song, "Who's gonna fill their shoes? Who's gonna stand that tall? "
Lloyd was a selfless man you cared so much about his fellow man. A true picture of Christ in a lost and dying world. He will be missed so much by me and mine.

Mr Lloyd was a humble man with a servant heart always working and giving to others. He loved his wife and family dearly as well as his church family. His eyes and face was always shining the light of Christ. He was the hands and feet of Jesus in this community. I will miss him but look forward to seeing him in heaven.
