Your family was amazing growing up next to.
Because of them I learned to love the outdoors, and pass it on to my family.
I will miss going over to visit with Mr Naylor and hearing all the old stories
Much love and peace to his wonderful family
Dear Family, what a year of loss and memories. Dad, Brent, then Floyd, all passing this year. I will always remember Uncle Floyd for his jovial voice, and perpetual smile. He laughed and loved. I am so grateful I was able to visit with him in June and had a wonderful visit. It was great to reminisce about the adventures we had at Strawberry Reservoir, hunting, fishing and just being together. He was a light of love and service. I’m hopeful these brothers are enjoying their reunion. All our love to his wonderful family.
What a wonderful man! He was a joy and everything good. We are so sorry we are unable to attend his services. He means so much to us. We are praying for your peace and comfort.
For 27 years we lived in the same ward as Floyd and Dorothy. What tremendous people. Always willing to help out. Floyd had a significant impact on the young men in the neighborhood and taught them many important life skills. What a great example and great neighbor. We will always remember his kindness to us and our family. We pray you will be comforted with many great memories.
