Lloyd Bledsoe Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Lloyd later moved to Ohio, where he met the love of his life, Audrey Fay (née Mills). Together they built a beautiful life and raised their family.
He worked as a pipefitter for Van Dorn and retired after 25 years of dedicated service. Lloyd was a talented craftsman who enjoyed woodworking and even built the family home himself. He and Audrey also ran a small business creating custom cat furniture. A true car enthusiast, Lloyd loved buying, selling, and detailing vehicles. Above all, he was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather who found great joy in his family and in caring for his beloved Great Pyrenees dogs.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his son, Lloyd Adam Bledsoe; brother, Roy Allen Bledsoe; and sister, Donna Jean Angel.
Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife of 50 years, Audrey; daughters Melinda Joyce and Jill Besida; grandchildren Mikhaila, Abigail, and Joshua Lloyd Besida; and siblings Cinderella Cartwright, O'Dell Bledsoe, and Joseph Bledsoe.
Family will receive friends on Friday, October 31, 2025, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., with a Funeral Service immediately following at 12:00 p.m. at Waite Funeral Home, 765 N. Court St., Medina, OH 44256.

Lloyd will be remembered for his hardworking spirit, love of family, and the warmth he brought to everyone who knew him.
