Lloyd always had a friendly hello when I walked by on 182nd St. My condolences on your loss. Lloyds neighbors Jim and Kathy Schreyer.
So many wonderful memories of time spent with Uncle Lloyd and Aunt Blanche…from the 4th of July parade gatherings, the cabin “up North” (the only summer vacation we had!) to Mom driving a station wagon packed full with siblings and friends to their home on Big Marine Lake for swimming and fishing. Always gracious, always fun, Uncle Lloyd and Aunt Blanche hold a special place in my heart. Thoughts and prayers to all my cousins and their families, who I am lucky enough to be related to not once, but twice! Peace and Blessings…
To the Houle family, Even though I did know him. I know the family. I love that family very much. Many, many Prayers to you.
Bob and Betsy, so sorry to hear of your loss. Lloyd and Blanche always made us feel so welcome in their home and we have wonderful memories of times at the lake. Thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Bob and Betsy and family,
Prayers and blessings of peace during this time of mourning. May the wonderful memories give you comfort and reassurance that you were loved.
Lloyd was an icon on 182nd Street. His raspy voice and generous heart will be missed, by all – including Vader! Antie up! It’s time for “Lloyd’s game” at the table playing poker with my dad!
I will always remember your wonderful smile and kind heart. So wish I could have known you better. Love and prayers to all the family.
I am sorry to hear the passing of Lloyd. May you be comforted by God’s word in John 5:28, 29 and Acts 24:15 that there will be a resurrection to life of all our dear loved ones.
On behalf of the Forest Lake American Legion Post 225, we give thanks for Lloyd’s military service to our nation and to veterans as a Legion member. I enjoyed visiting him at the Arbors.
Best man I could have ever asked for as grandpa in-law. Will miss seeing you in the summers and listening to all your fantastic stories. Rest in peace lovingly reunited with Grandma and catch a big one!
