Rachel, I can't possibly begin to understand how you are feeling or what you must be going through at this time. But I want you to know I am thinking of you, am always here for you, and will be a supportive friend forever. I´m so for your family´s loss.

Dad,
I´ll remember you for all the times we played catch in the yard and the times I fell asleep on the couch watching Reds games with you past my bedtime. The trips we took to Toys R Us on my birthday to pick out my present together. The purple Easter bunny you bought to replace the one I left in Heathrow Airport when I was five and cried over the whole flight home.
I´ll mourn you for all the missed opportunities to make memories, share stories and laugh together. To celebrate my achievements and for you to share fatherly advice.
Life isn´t always fair, and it doesn´t always work out the way we want it to. But I hope you know how much you were and always will be loved.
And I hope I made you proud.

Lloyd was a valued member of the Wolff family for many years, and took part in many of our adventures. The bravest thing that he and Janet did was to bring the girls, aged five and seven, to visit us in England. They were able to do some sight-seeing (sometimes the girls stayed with us as they were bored with castles) and to share Easter with us. There were also trips to Canada and breakfast for 20 with the rest of the family. He was a loyal supporter of both girls who were in some excellent marching bands, which involved driving all over the Dayton area. Lloyd was a hard worker and he gave his best to any job that he did. I am sorry that distance meant that we did not see him over the past few years, and we mourn his loss to both the Trader and Wolff families

My condolences go out to Lloyd´s family and to all those who were close to him. I´ll always remember Lloyd for his easy-going personality and great sense of humor, and look back fondly on the memories of working together at Stotts-Friedman many years ago. My heart goes out to Heather and Rachel during this difficult time.
