We are sorry for the loss of your father. My folks were blessed to have Lloyd and Marilyn as friends. Every time I talked to my folks, I would hear how much fun they had with them, and always enjoyed seeing them at the Legion. They brought each other much happiness, and I believe they are together again. May you find comfort in your memories as long as you feel their loss.

So sorry to hear of your Father’s passing. You are in our thoughts and prayers!
Your Dad was a very special person to so many people. When we were little kids, we had so much fun together with your family snowmobiling and camping and just visiting. I remember playing hide and seek in the upstairs of your house and outside in your yard. And we played a lot of legos. Your Mom loved to hang out with us girls when all of you boys went hunting. We did her hair and looked at her jewelry. She let us put some make up on her, too. There was always lots of laughter and good food at your house. Your Dad always had a good story to tell about catching a fish or hunting.
I will not be able to come to the visitation or funeral because we will be in Detroit Lakes with Craig’s parents and our son, Matt has a visit at NDSU scheduled and we can’t cancel it. Our thoughts will be with you.
Take care.
Debbie, Craig, Matt and Eric
Lloyd will be missed by many people, he was a kind, generous person. I loved the flowers he would bring to the St. Augusta Legion. I will miss him greatly. My deepest sympathy to his family.
