I had the pleasure of getting to know Lloyd through work for many years. He was as fine a man as I've ever known. He loved to poke fun and be light hearted, but he could be all business when it was called for. We loved to talk about the old days of growing up in the country. I learned a lot from him and can say that some of his words of wisdom come to mind very, very often. He will be missed.

Mrs. Janice & Family: We know there is a void due to Mr. 'Bud' going to be with Jesus. However, there is "peace that passes understanding" knowing that our 'Brother-in-Christ' is no longer suffering & we will see him again in Heaven. We know that you are comforted by prayers & words of encouragement from family, friends & brothers & sisters in Christ. It has been our joy to get to know you & Mr. Bud as church family through Micro First Baptist Church. In Christian Love,
