Lloyd was truly an amazing friend and his family lived down the street in Algiers. I was introduced to LLoyd by Vince Tortorich back in 66/67 and our group of friends were inseperable. I loved him like a brother and found out today of his passing. Now, he is gone and I will never get to tell him how much he meant to me and how much his passing has brought back such wonderful memories and sadness with his death. Janet, you were a lucky woman to have such a devoted and loving man. The last time we spoke he told me of how happy and blessed he was to have found you. My prayers to you and your family, I know he will be missed, I will miss him everyday.

Your husband, Lloyd, was one of the kindest gentlemen I have ever been privileged to know. I worked in the OMCK building for many years and Lloyd was always there. I always knew if something needed to be done, Lloyd was the one to call. You and your family are in my prayers that you will be comforted in your loss. My heart is heavy with deepest sympathy for you and yours.
