Obituary
LYONS, Samuel “Lloyd”
1932 – 2020
It is with heavy hearts that the family announces the passing of Lloyd on December 15, 2020 at the age of 88. Lloyd was born in Killarney, Manitoba on August 16, 1932 to Samuel & Rena (Barber) Lyons.
Anyone who knew Lloyd knew him for his love of the outdoors and gardening, he spent much of his life in both. He had a patient gentle spirit, with a witty sense of humor, a kind heart and a love for family and friends. He spent his quiet time with a western theme of John Wayne, Wilf Carter, Zane Grey & Louis L’Amour.
Lloyd and Margaret had spent the last 25 years together sharing families, friends, laughs and many happy times.
Lloyd is survived by his three children; Sharon, Elwyn (Allison), Mike (Diana), 7 Grandchildren & 4 great grandchildren as well as Margret’s five children; Darwin, Collin (Monique), Cherylee (Ross), Tammy (Dean), Tracey; 12 grandchildren & 17 great grandchildren, extended family and friends.
Lloyd was preceded by lifelong best friend Margaret McCutcheon (2019), his sister Verne, and brothers; Andy, Russ, Ralph, Raymond, Kenny and Jack. His first wife Hilda Henderson (2000).
He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Our family would like to express their deep appreciation to the Management and Caregivers at Point West for the care they provided to Lloyd.
Due to Covid 19 restrictions the Celebration of Life for Lloyd will be held in Killarney, Manitoba, where he will be interred, in the Spring of 2021.
If friends so desire memorial tributes in Lloyd’s honour may be made directly to the Canadian Diabetes diabetes.ca/donate.
If tears could build a stairway
and memories a lane,
I’d walk right up to Heaven
and bring you home again.
