Sending prayers to the entire Loyd family LaTrevia, Peter, Junior you are in my prayers. Elder Loyd will be missed.
My heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your love one. Elder Bobby Lloyd was truly a Christian and a family man. My prayers are with you at this time.
LaTreva, Peter and Bobby Jr.,
It is difficult to say, “See you later” to people you love so dearly. Still Polly and Elder Loyd prepared you for life after their departure. The reason Elder lived this life is so He can live eternity with the Lord, as did Polly. Take comfort in Jesus. Remember that real life begins when we shed this mortal body. I love you all.
Rest In His Care.
Latreavia,Peter,and Junior my deepest condolences. Weare asking God to comfort and strengthen you during this difficult time. We were so sorry to hear about the passing of Elder Lloyd. He was such a kind man of God. We will continue to keep you all lifted up in prayer. We love you all.
