So sorry to hear of your loss. In my thoughts and prayers

Dear Nola and Family I’m so sorry to hear about Lloyd. My memories are of those early years when your Mom would bring him back to our group home on Sunday night, he was a very expressive character we enjoyed having him back each week but he definitely wanted to stay home with his siblings. You were an amazing sister and advocate. Lloyd always remembered me no matter where we ran into each other and always greeted me calling me by name and giving me a big hug, it made me feel like I had done something right in my lifetime. Please know that I am thinking of all of you at this time of loss. I am certain he is in heaven visiting with all his loved ones.

– Our sincere condolences Pat and Mike Charron
