Kathy I was so sorry to see that your husband had passed away. It was not that long ago we had just connected, and you were telling me all you were doing together. I pray that God will give you peace at this time and give your children and grandchildren the strength they need to move forward. God Bless!

I was saddened by the news of Lloyds passing. I am sure he has a front row seat in Heaven. I had the pleasure of working with Lloyd and Kathy on JC activities. Lloyd was always someone you knew you could count on to get things done. He has lived the line "that service to humanity is the best work of life"

Although I worked very little with Lloyd, he was a member of our "lunch club" at Farm Bureau. We all helped each other out during those mutually-beneficial discussions during those difficult times of transition at FB. He was a dedicated and competent professional, a clearly dedicated and loving father/husband and a good friend. Sadly, I am out of town, currently, and will not be able to convey these thoughts to you in person. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
