September 23, 1930 - December 22, 2020
James Wendell Loyd passed away peacefully at home on December 22, 2020, after an adventurous 90 years of life. He was born September 23, 1930, in Vilonia, AR, to James C. Loyd and Delia Stell Loyd, and he was a Korean War veteran.
He was a spirited man and full of grit, who loved his hunting dogs, but he always had a cat too, to keep him company. His favorite things were Redman, his recliner, Cardinal baseball, and the horse races. He grew up a farmer, but he also had a long career as a Loan Officer and Bank Manager at the Federal Land Bank and Morrilton Savings & Loan. He was quite the storyteller and may have accidentally taught his grandchildren how to cuss from his witty one-liners. His lessons, tales, and wisecracks will be missed.
He was preceded in death by his mother and father; siblings, Veotta Nolen (Booth), JD Loyd, and Leon Loyd (Vera); and daughter, Barbara Adams. He is survived by his wife, Eura Mae Loyd; sibling, Calvin Loyd (Thelma); children, Bobby Loyd (Marian), Brenda Sanson (Steve), & Barry Loyd; grandchildren, Lindsay Robinson (Michael), Laura Leigh Pugh (Cody), Landon Loyd (Katelyn), Jessica Baker (Sean), Beau Sanson, Jon Loyd (Christa), Kate Loyd, & Jacob Loyd; eleven wonderful great-grandchildren; and one cat, Ernie Boots.
