Not sure what to say?

I´m not a friend of the family. I found a photo album at a at an estate sale. A gorgeous Album. It has a photo of Lloyd at 7 months.

I remember Lloyd taking us (the senior sculpture class) downstairs to the music dept. and finding us all instruments to play while he "tickled the ivories". Such fun! He will be missed! I was also a sculpture major in the class of 1974.

I remember wonderful days in his clsses during the 60's. He was a great teacher and wonderful artist. My heart goes out to his family as at my age- there are many losses. His memory will live in the hearts and creativity of many of his students

Lloyd was my sculpture teacher at B.U. (I graduated in '74) and also a friend. I am saddened to hear of his deathhe has frequently been in my thoughts over the years since I last saw him. Barbara, Nina, and LisaI extend my deep condolences. Lloyd was a wonderful, inspiring, and encouraging teacher, a talented sculptor, a fun person to be with, and a darned good pianist! He was full of enthusiasm and life. I always enjoyed visiting with Lloyd and Barbara and their kids at their home in Newton,...

Lloyd was a great sculptor, a wonderful teacher, a talented musician, and a gracious host with his wonderful wife, Barbara. To be in his presence was an experience that was always memorable and filled with joy. How he will be missed.....Heartfelt condolences to Barbara and his daughters and fondest wishes from,

Some lasting friendships were made in your sculpture class at Boston University in the 80s, not to mention the one I had with you Thank you

Mr. Lillie - i mean Lloyd - how you charmed and entertained us all! You are a favorite childhood presence. I am so sorry you have been sick. Rest in peace, Lots of Love, MariaE

The epitome of a man with real joie de vivre. Such a big heart, and incredible talent. Love you, Uncle Lloyd.

Lloyd was my Sculpting Professor my senior year at BU (many years ago, 1987-88). He was always so full of energy and enthusiasm to impart his knowledge and share his talent with all who were interested in trying. I wish his family and friends comfort and peace in your hearts. My condolences to all.
