I am going to miss my Uncle Floyd’s sense of humor. If you are sensitive you had better not let my uncle know it. He was the king of roasting people. I used to tell my friends to brace themselves because if there was anything physically different about them my uncle and cousins would surely make a comment. Keep making people laugh and sleep in peace Uncle I’m sure daddy is glad to see you.
Our heartfelt condolences to the family during this period of sadness. To God be the glory
Uncle Floyd was a Loveable gentle Giant who gave the BEST hugs!

Gone but never forgotten King. Rest in Power Uncle Floyd a.k.a Big Daddy💖💞💖
