Floyd was a big part of our family. Our children, Erik, Ryan and Heather called him Grandpa Floyd. We spent every Christmas and Easter with Granpa Floyd until Bea passed. We are all deeply sadened by his loss. It is too bad that we were not notified of his passing. Jerry, his nephew, has been a resident of the Pavilions Nursing home for the last four years and was heartbroken when he heard the news. God comfort you too. Grandpa Floyd loved his family and talked about you often.
