Obituary of Lloyd Robert Holmes
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Lloyd Holmes at his home on Saturday, April 24, 2021 at the age of 63 years. Lloyd was born on the family farm in Kipling, Sask. and lived most of his life in Regina. Those who met Lloyd as a younger man always remembered him. He was a rebel who loved fast cars, 70’s music, hockey, and the outdoors, especially the mountains in BC. He was always willing to give anyone a hand, which always, always held a cigarette. His way with animals and small children was truly a gift (probably because he let them get away with anything). His life was forever changed due to a work accident 15 years ago and he struggled with illness and pain from that day on. We are comforted and thankful that his pain is now gone and his troubled heart is now healed. Lloyd was predeceased by his parents, Robert and Bernice Holmes; and his childhood friend, Gerry. He is mourned by his daughter Kristen Holmes; son, Sean Holmes; beloved grandson, Damian; ex-spouse, Karen McDonald; sisters, Bev (Stan) Niebergall, Bonnie (Ron MacGillivray); as well as numerous nieces and nephews; and his treasured pet and constant companion, “Vader.” We wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Regina Police Service, EMT staff, and to Speers Funeral Chapel for their kind and caring efforts. There will be no formal service at this time. You are invited to pay forward kindness to someone in Lloyd’s memory, or a donation to the Regina Humane Society, Box 3143, Regina, SK S4P 3G7.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Lloyd
