I GREW UP WITH LLOYD IN MATTAWAN.BETWEEN HIM, MIKE QUICK AND MYSELF,( THE FIRST 16 YEARS) WE HAD SOME PETTRY EXCIDING TIMES.
I KNEW LLOYD AND HIS ENTIR FAMILY AT THAT TIME. AFTER I JOINED THE ARMY IN 65 WE LOST CONTACT AND I DIDN'T SEE HIM FOR ABOUT 25 YEARS.THEN AT OUR 25th CLASS REUNION (IN MATTAWAN) I BUMPED INTO HIM. AFTER THE REUNION WAS OVER WE WENT TO HIS PLACE FOR A FEW MORE HOURS. LLOYD WAS ALWAYS THE KIND OF PERSON WHO GOT ALONG WITH EVERYONE HE MET.
MY CONDELENCES TO HIS FAMILY

I used to work with Lloyd at the Black Ram in the late 70s, and I was the real-estate agent who sold the house in town to Mr. Duboise.
I at all times had fun when around Lloyd. He never seemed to quit smiling and always had a funny story to tell. The world has lost an important piece, and a hell of a man. My condolences.
