To the family of "LP", in the book of Ecclesiastes 3:1 it reads, "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: The season has come to celebrate the homegoing of "Mr. Lloyd Riddick" as I refer to him, for my more mature brothers and sisters (William, Ruby, Flossie, Charles, Odessa, Jackie and Albert Smith), "LP". We extend our condolences and wish you God's blessings and comfort. The Smith Family of "Hattonsville"

We have to be greatful for the many friends that we have. True friends are those that God puts in your life not only for a season but for a reason. Lloyd P. Riddick was put in my life for reason. Lloyd was friend with many teachings. As we were ordained as deacon together, Lloyd taught me many things and stood by me in the toughest of times. Lloyd often said "if I tell you that a mosquito can pull a plow..you just hitch him up and take a ride." Lloyd, I will miss you but I know you are now riding with your Roslyn in heaven. RIDE ON KING JESUS, NO MAN CANNOT HINDER ME

To The Riddick Family:
Lloyd was an amazing person who I worked with for many years at Norfolk State University. I admired him most because he could truly light up a room just with his presence. I am praying for your family to get through this time with peace that comes from the knowledge that GOD loves you and will take care of you. We have truly lost a blessing from God.
