Loyd was one of 10 brothers and sisters. He served in both the Army and Navy. He was a veteran of the Korean War. He was a craftsman and contractor who built homes across the country.

He and his wife were champion square dancers and golfers. Loyd was also an excellent shot, winning trophies for FBI shooting competitions. He loved to travel, particularly in the west. He captained many family R.V. trips to the southwest and in the Rocky Mountains. Fall color and the dramatic, natural scenery of the west were some of his favorite things. He was preceded in death by his wife, Beverly Scalf. He is survived by his only daughter, Tonya Bienhoff and husband, John; granddaughter, Kelly King; and great-grandson, Abraham King. Funeral services will be 1 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 22, 2015 at Beard's Chapel with Reverend Gary Lunsford officiating.
