I just found out about Lloyd he was a good friend to me and my family while I worked in west plains on the hwy 63 road job in 1994 him and Hellen let me stay with them at their house. I met Lloyd in the seventies when I worked in west plains for caterpillar,
Vernon Guilliams worked with me and I became aquainted with him and his brother Bill then and Lloyd and Hellen, we spent a lot of time with them while we lived there, lots of memories! Reicently Lloyd has been on my mind and the phone number I had was no longer a good one, I am sorry I did not try harder to contact him. please convey our condolences to everyone I don’t know if anyone will remember us since we all were separated by circumstances and time, but from all of us to all of you God bless you all !
