Lloyd was born October 19, 1925, in Red Rock Oklahoma. During WWII he enlisted into Army Air Corps and was being trained as a tail gunner when the war ended. After leaving the Air Corps he attended Cisco Junior College where he met the love of his life, Betty Dean (Lennon) McGrew. They married in 1954 and were married 54 years.
Lloyd and Betty attended the University of Texas College of Pharmacy. Shortly after graduation, they moved back to Cisco where they took over the family business at Dean Drug until it's closing in 1999. Even after his retirement Lloyd continued to practice pharmacy until his death.
Lloyd served on the Board of Regents at Cisco College for 37 years. He served First United Methodist Church in many positions for over 50 years. He was also heavily involved with the Boy Scouts for over 50 years as well. He was the absolute perfect husband, father, and grandfather. He loved his girls with his whole heart and always continued to remind them of that. His million dollar smile and "hook em" horns gestures are just a few of the many things about Lloyd that will be remembered.
Lloyd was preceded in death by his wife, Betty in 2008.
Surviving family are his two daughters, Mary Elizabeth Cunningham and husband John Cunningham of Duncanville and D.D. Lowe and husband Ed Lowe of Burleson. His brother Don McGrew and wife Wanda, of Ponca City Oklahoma. Grandchildren, Jadon D. Lowe, Jennifer Leigh Granberry and Cathrine Jean McMahan. Great grandchildren, Briggita, Anson, Ryeton, Piper, and Georgia.
