So sorry to have heard this news mid summer 2023. Floyd and I first met at 13WAVZ, he was a weekday DJ, I was 17 yr old "Ron The Booty Man" as other station DJs allowed me to give away prizes (booty) on the street as a friend of the station. Floyd was one of my favorite DJs with his incredible voice, witty, off the cuff humor live on air, WAVZ, WKCI, WDRC, WWYZ. Truly a distinguished, notable, illustrious...and hilarious Radio DJ. None other than "Mr. Fun, Friendly Floyd". Condolences to the...

Back in the earliest days of Radio Broadcasting, when the music came from 45s and 33s and the control board was crafted from stone, I had the great fortune of handing off the Broadcast day to Friendly Floyd each weekday morning on WHEB AM-FM in Portsmouth, NH. It was a genuine thrill to banter with him off the air, and then to listen to his fabulous morning show as I went home to have breakfast.
My career took me to Washington, DC eventually, but I always followed Floyd's path...

With a quirky sense of humor and a sarcastic take on life, Floyd never failed to make me laugh. I've known Floyd since his first stint at WDRC. Great guy and just a lot of fun to work with. He ALWAYS asked about my daughter, and my son got to work with him - in fact, Floyd bought my son a Hartford Yard Goats hat. I'll miss our chats while I was checking the WJMJ control system and EAS system. Rest in peace, my friend. Heaven is a better place because of you.
