Not sure what to say?

I was curious too see who was currently running Rainbow Neon Sign Co. When I saw Guy"s name, it brought back fond memories of Lloyd and Onadel. You probably do not remember me. I am Linda (Gibbs) Losser. My Dad, Milt Gibbs ,was the electrician and sign hanger at Rainbow for many years. I grew up just a few blocks from you in Kearns on 4460 West. I actually used to babysit you, Connie, and Laura on occasion, when your Mom and Dad went to American Legion functions together with my Mom and...

To my wonderful Uncle Lloyd - I have not been able to do this until now, because I could not admit that you were gone. Life simply will not be the same without you in it. I will never forget the summer visits - swimming, laughing, sharing stories and jokes and making such wonderful memories. I will love you always and I look forward to the time when we meet again. To my dear Aunt Onie and cousins, I am so deeply sorry for your loss and my prayers are with you.

My Dearest Uncle Lloyd,
You will be deeply missed. I think back and remember all the summers that you would come to Boise and the excitement and anticipation waiting for those wonderful weeks. I will indeed miss your smiling face and all the great stories and gifts that you brought to our family. I love you and I will be excited to see you again.

Please accept our deepest sympathies. Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

My Dear Lloyd: From the first time you held me the day I was born until the last time you hugged me 2 years ago, you have always been my knight in shining armor. You always were such a wonderful big brother. I will miss our "Happy Birthday phone calls" to each other. I always admired you so, and your love, humor, wit, thoughtfulness, kindness and understanding will remain with us forever. Please know that we will miss you terribly but you will remain in our hearts forever.

Lloyd.......he was a character....always quick with a smile. He and his whole family were a big and very wonderful part of my childhood. Many blessings and lots love to all of you.

Lloyd, I always counted you as one of the finest gentlemen that I had the priviledge of knowing.

Lloyd took us to our first tailgate party! A few years later, we had the pleasure of cruising to the Caribbean with Lloyd and Onie in 1986. What wonderful memories with our brother. His quick wit, laughter, compassion, and generosity set a high standard for all of us to live up to. We will miss those good times. Our thoughts and prayers to all friends and family members.

We will never forget the time we spent with Lloyd and Onadel one summer, and watched their home movies of Lloyd giving his son a hair cut and them making us Moscow Mules. We never laughed so hard.
I remember a cowboy hat Lloyd got me for my birthday when I was just a youngun. I loved that hat. He showed me how to shape it in salt water also. He was always smiling. We Will miss him.
