Mrs. Wenzel- Lloyd was my good friend. Always cheerful, he was willing to share his advise and friendship. I had the privilege of working with him at Pratt & Whitney in the Spanish Program. He will be missed. Fred Castro

To the Wenzel family, words cannot express the depth of loss we felt upon hearing of Lloyd’s passing. I grew up hearing all about Lloyd from my father who was a squadron mate of his. I finally had the pleasure of meeting him at a 474th FG reunion several years ago. We instantly struck up a great friendship where he treated me like a son. His faith and humbling encouragement inspired me to become the official historian of the 474th FG Association, a rare honor for a family member. Lloyd...

It was with great sadness that I read of Lloyd's passing in today's paper. It's been more than 6 1/2 years since my retirement as a pediatrician, so it's been even longer since my last contact with this amazing man and his family. I think it necessary and proper to record what a dedicated grandfather Lloyd was (and I want to mention Carol as an equally devoted grandmother). They were modest yet tremendously supportive. I'm sure he is greatly missed by all the grandchildren, whom I had the...

It was an honor and a privilege to have known Lloyd. I met Lloyd as a family member of the 474th Fighter Group Association and I immediately liked him. He always made time to talk to me about my Uncle who flew with him in WWII. He was a true American hero, a patriot, yet humble and kindly in his manner. I am sad to hear that Lloyd has passed, but find strength in knowing he will now join with those pilots and crew who flew away before and touched the hand of God.

To Lloyd's family. It was an honor and a real experience to have met Lloyd; he really had a zest for life. My deepest sympathy in the loss and my hope that while he will be missed my all he will never be forgotten by one. He was a natural and a true American hero.

Dear Wenzel Family: I did not know Lloyd when he was in our squadron over seas, but during our reunions I got to know him well. He always wanted to be sure that I was going to be at the next reunion as he wanted to sit down and talk. We had many good conversations together over the years. He was a great man and I respected him very much. I will miss those sessions that wwe had together. May God richly Bless you as a family and give you peace in your hearts in the dys and months...
