Scott, Trina, Robert & Family,
We will miss Lloyd so much. He was a lovely man with a pure heart. We are so greatful for the times we had with him as he was always so dear to Mary and the grandkids, and nobody loved our dogs like he did! I know your hearts are heavy but he is in God’s hands and will not suffer. Be joyful for the times you had, the lessons he taught, the smiles and laughs shared. Our thoughts are with you, Love Teresa (Mary’s daughter), Granddaughters Lexi, Lina & JamieMarie.
To Earl
So,so sorry. I called him on his birthday last month, but no answer. I should have called you to check on him. If I’d known he was in Baldwin, I’d have visited him daily. Britton and I so enjoyed our lunches with him. He was such a sweetie, Earl. My sincere condolences.
