Lloyd grew up in a very loving and musically inclined family and enjoyed getting together and singing in harmony. Lloyd loved to hunt, and camp up in Huntington and Fairview canyons. Lloyd and his twin brother Floyd enlisted in the Navy for the duration of WWII, making it five sons in all serving at the same time in the military. He was very proud to serve his country.
