He graduated from Scott Collegiate in Regina. Lloyd worked for the Canadian Pacific Railway for 40 years. He met the love of his life Shirley Brady while stationed at Maryfield, Saskatchewan. They married June 30, 1958. Lloyd and Shirley moved around with the railway and finally settled in Fleming, Saskatchewan where Lloyd was proud to be a Counselor and Mayor. The family moved to Brandon in 1971 where Lloyd continued working for the railway until his retirement. Lloyd was a proud member and past president of Brandon Kiwanis.
