Lloyd was always there for our chapter right from our opening of the chapter. I asked that if you are free on Friday to please come and show your respects and support of one of our long time members. For those who know Lloyd it is easy for me to say that he is happy being back with his wife and is no longer suffering.<div><br></div><div>Lloyd, you may be gone, but you’ll never be forgotten. You truly made a difference in the chapter and in my life.</div><div><br></div><div>Your friend,<br><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><br><div dir="ltr"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-- <br>Miranda b.
