MY DEEP SYMPATHY TO THE WHOLE FAMILY BUT ESP. TO MY FRIEND ANTOINETTE. LLOYDE SOUNDS LIKE A SUPERBLY GIFTED MAN AND THIS WORLD SURE HAS LOST ONE OF THE BEST. THE PLYMOUTH CORDAGE CO. ISN'T ALL THAT FAR FROM ONE OF MY ANCESTORS' HOME ( BUILT IN THE 16OO'S ) WHO CAME OVER ON THE MAYFLOWER. THESE OLD FAMILIES BUILT THAT AREA THRU. THE CENTURIES, AND I KNOW THEY WERE HARDY STOCK. YOU MUST BE SO PROUD OF LLOYDE'S WORK AND LIFE. MAY HE REST IN PEACE. WITH LOVE, KAREN HAWKINS
