Lloyd Alvin Dill, 94, passed away on April 29, 2023. Lloyd was born on Oct. 5, 1928 in Garrison, Iowa, to Arthur and Bertha Dill. He married Roxa Ann Phelps and had three children. After Roxa's passing, he married Charlane Stevens. Lloyd taught high school and junior high geography for many years in Kalona, Marshalltown, Iowa City and Solon, Iowa. He coached many high school sports throughout his teaching career. He ended his coaching career as the Senior Recruiting Coordinator for Arizona Christian University. Lloyd coached five student athletes that became head coaches at nine NCAA Division I universities. After teaching, he helped pioneer the modern process of connecting student athletes with college football and basketball programs.
