Dear Iris and Family,
I haven't seen any of you since my mother passed away (Dorothy Barlow Perry), but I want you to know how much she loved "cousin Lloyd" and how much I appreciated knowing him. Like many times in our lives, I mean't to get in touch with him to discuss Moon family genealogy, but I waited too long. Our prayers are with you.

Dear Iris,
We extend our love and sympathies to you at this time. We owe a great debt of gratitude to you and Lloyd for your continued friendship to Mom and Dad. You will never know how many times your names came up in discussions with them accompanied with smiles and expressions of love. I hope that there will come a time and a way to extend our gratitude and love for the service and friendship you both extended to our family. My earliest memories of the Moon family in the 13th Ward was of a family that was a genuine example of love of the gospel and their fellow men, a love and skill for beautiful music and an absolute acceptance of others. Again, our love and prayers go out for you at this time. Our testimony of the truth and reality of Heavenly Father's great plan of happiness is humbly extended to you with the love and hope that it is a comfort to you. Love La Myra, Carol and Dave Dowding in Loveland Colorado.

Dear Iris,
Mother let us know that Lloyd had passed away and that she and Paul had attended the funeral. May we express our love and sympathy to you at this difficult time. I have many happy childhood memories which include your family. We lived pretty close for quite awhile and I remember the wonderful roadshows that you and Lloyd did when we were teenagers. Even later, we were all in the Sertoma/La Sertoma clubs together. We had some wonderful times. May the Lord bless you at this time. The gospel brings such peace with the knowledge of a hereafter with our loved ones.
With love, Elder and Sister Ron Bangerter, New Jersey/Morristown Mission

Please know that I am thinking of you and the loss of your eternal companion.

Your faith will help to heal the loss and your precious memories will be yours forever to sustain you and your family.

Dear Iris and family, and Glen too, I am up in the wee hours this morning and checked the Deseret News Obituaries. So sad to hear of Lloyd's passing. You know how much I loved him and always considered him one of my favorite cousins. He was always so good to me from the time I was very small, and I know he loved me too. Words could never describe how much he meant to me. He has continued to keep in touch with me through all the years, and just this year, I received a Christmas card from him. Please know that I am thinking of all of you and praying for you, I know you have a lot of happy memories to sustain you, but know how hard it will be to adjust to this great loss. We are never ready at any age to lose our lifetime companion and best friend and brother. Please know that if possible I will be to the funeral, but I don't drive that far anymore, so don't know if I can make it. I love you Iris and Glen and you will be in my prayers. Love, Lillian Barlow Anhder.
