LLOYD PROCHNOW Obituary

LLOYD PROCHNOW Lloyd Prochnow, age 77, passed away on Wednesday, March 28, 2018 at his home in Pahrump under hospice care. Lloyd was born, raised in southern Idaho to loving parents, and worked in Idaho until he left to enlist in the U.S. Navy. He served four years and four months at Great Lakes Naval Training Center, Great Lakes, Ill. and was honorably discharged. After marriage, he and his wife lived in Idaho for 28 years and several years in Missouri and Pahrump. Lloyd was loved by all and honesty came to him naturally. He was a true patriot, who loved his country, friends and relatives. He retired from Nestle Company (Carnation) as an area manager for over 25 years and upon retirement, they travelled full-time in an RV for several years. Lloyd loved his doggie friends who passed: "Becky," "Ginger," and "Lizzie." He also loved square dancing, working in his yard and garden, being part of the Rock Hounds, playing cards, and visiting friends and family. Lloyd was also a life member of Idaho Farm and Ranch Museum (IFARM) in Jerome, Idaho. Lloyd is survived by his wife of 52 years, Barbara Prochnow; son, Byron (Ecco) Prochnow; brother, Alvin (Irene) Prochnow; in-laws, whom he considered siblings: Marion Dahl, Robert Dahl, and David Dahl; several nieces and nephews; and many friends. Lloyd loved attending the Heritage Bible Church, 3061 Heritage Drive, Pahrump, NV 89061, where a Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 7, 2018.

Barbara, so sorry to see the notice in the Twin Falls paper about Lloyd . So glad to read that you were able to travel and have some fun. The minute I saw it, I remembered your big smile and great laugh and the nite we trick or treated the beet dump. I lost my husband almost 5 years ago and can tell you that memories will get you through it all.
