Memorial contributions to the Sault Area Hospital Foundation, Heart & Stroke Foundation or the charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated by the family. Lloyd was a retiree of Algoma Steel after many years of dedicated service and was an avid Soo Greyhound fan. He was an Evangelist and a faithful servant of our Lord Jesus Christ and in later years was an elder at the church. He spearheaded and worked tirelessly to ensure the completion of the church addition to provide wheelchair access for those who needed it. Thank you to Dr. Staples and the nursing staff of 300C.
