I'm sorry to hear of Dr. Loyd's passing. He treated my dad for a number of years, and my dad thought a lot of him,said he was a great man. I know Dr. Loyd touched many lives while here on Earth. I know he's in a better place now, and I pray you and your family find strength and comfort in that. May God's grace and mercy surround you during this difficult time. Praying for you and your family!

This man wasn't just my doctor who saved me from a very close brush with death he was my friend, my shooting buddy. We would talk about my progress for 3 minutes then firearms, politics and my books for 15. He was a caring, no nonsense incredibly brilliant physician without peer. I will dearly miss him. Admittedly I loved him like my smarter brother. May the good Lord keep you in his arms.

Dr. Loyd cared for both my husband and I over a number of years through our struggles with cancer. Over time we felt he was part of our family and he told us of his family and how proud he was as a father. His expertise in cancer treatment saved many including us. His kindness will never be forgotten and we are thankful to have known him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

We are both shocked and saddened learning of Dr Loyd passing. He has done more than anyone else to care for Susan and give her the confidence to continue the medications and treatments he has given her. We have had a special relationship over the last 8 years and he will truly leave a void in our lives. God Bless his family.

I was saddened to hear of Dr. Loyd's passing. He was a very sweet, kind and compassionate man who always had time to listen even though he had worked incredibly long hours. He was a wonderful Doctor who went out of his way to help. I have known him for 8 years and will miss his gentle spirit. We always talked about the U.K., and his family when I came in for a visit. I wish to extend my condolences to his loving family at such a very sad time. Dr. Loyd will be truly missed ........he was a man who made a difference.

The entire Loyd family: You have my deepest condolences. I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Loyd. He will be missed so very much. He was such a nice soul. He would always acknowledge us (transcriptionists) and I really enjoyed his sense of humor. He would talk to us as if we were sitting right in front of him. I really got just a very small piece of the man he was. We will have a huge void here, but you will has the greatest void in your life or missing him. To know that he was a man that loved the Bible, makes him even more special. I will continue to pray for you all. Please hold his memories and love close to your hearts and deep in your minds until you see him again, healthy and smiling as usual. (John 5:28,29)

Richard Loyd is one of the finest individuals with whom I've ever associated. He had high expectations of himself and of others BUT those expectations were beautifully supported with Christian concern and love. His faith was supported by sterling works, and his works were infused with steadfast faith. May God bless each of us to be a little more like Richard Loyd.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this difficult time. Bishop Loyd was such a great man and will be missed by many. We still think of him with fond memories and love even though it has been years since we have seen him. He was such a thoughtful man and as our home teacher he never missed one of our children's birthday. Our lives are better for having known him.

Rich was a very good friend and a great man who loved the Lord. When Rich and I would meet he would share some of his goals that were tied to his church service. And with each conversation, whether face to face, email, or phone call, he would always include concerns that he wasn't doing enough. He spoke often of his wife and children. He loved each of them dearly. He worked tirelessly to be the best he could for his family and for his Heavenly Father. I will miss him greatly.

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. Loyd was a great doctor and person. I remember when I first met him and just his bedside manner and personality put my mind at ease. He was always straight forward person. I just saw him last month and he told me, "get up I only treat sick people I'll see you in six months". He will be greatly missed in Greensboro where he treated so many. I know he is with our Lord and Savior. With Deepest Sympathy, Paige Hubbard

The medical profession has suffered a great loss. In reading the other condolences posted I realized that I was not the only one that Dr. Loyd made to feel special. It was his gift to us as his patients knowing that we were facing a uncertain future yet instilling in us hope through his compassionate care.

Condolence From Crystal Bradberry

I can only say my heart is broken. This man helped save my life. Brilliant doesn't even begin to describe him and I will be forever grateful for the blessing of knowing him. When I had my very last appointment, he hugged me and teared up and said "You're going to be just fine". He had told me in previous appointments that it was "refreshing" as he looked at me in admiration of "his" accomplishment (I was his patient for 2 years). RIP Dr. Loyd, and thank you for your smiles and dedication to making the world a healthier place. There will never be another Oncologist like you.

My heart is heavy tonight after getting a phone call that Dr. Loyd had passed away. Dr.Loyd will be so missed by his family, co-workers, and patients. I was always told by Dr. Loyd that I was one of his special patients. Can't tell you how many times he said that to me. I remember the first time I met him at my first appointment. He sat down for at least an hour and talked about me and the blood disorder I have. He listened to what I had to say and then told me what we were up against. I could go on and tell more, but this page is not log enough for what I have to say. He was my doctor for about 8 years. I am going to miss him so much. He was my inspiration. He was the most caring doctor I have or had. The family will be in my prayers.

I am so blessed to of not only known Dr. Loyd & worked with him but also to of had him as my daughter's doctor too. I got to be apart of his world in both sides as coworker & patient. The kindness, thoughtfulness, caring, listening, & compassionate person he was made me proud to be there working with him but most of all having him be my daughter's doctor! My heart truly goes out to each of you and I will continue to pray for you all that the Lord wraps his arms around you each to help get you through this not only today but tomorrow, this week, the up coming weeks & months. May God give you strength for guidance & understanding in the days ahead. With much love, Annette Brookins Go Rest High on that Mountain Dr. Loyd your work here is now done.....

We are just so sad hearing this news. We are praying for all of you, esp Kathy, Aundra and Alex. I can only imagine what a void in so many lives his passing will be. I was the lab tech in the Gwinnett office for all of the 8 years Dr Loyd was there, and worked occasionally in the Athens clinc with him as welll until I moved in 2014. . He was very kind to us as staff, and interested in our families. I always considered him no t only our Dr but our friend. Dr Loyd always wanted to help people, period. He also had a definite devotion to his family and his faith. He walked the walk... I am glad he is at peace and we will meet again. Our lives are better for knowing him!

We are heartbroken at the loss of Dr. Loyd. He helped save Sam's life by treating his cancer. He was always so kind and easy going.

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Dr. Loyd when he was an extern in Tucker. Years later when I moved to Athens he helped me to get Compassionate Care Hospice off the ground. What a fine,gentle spirit he was. He was lioved by his patients and the community at large. May God comfort you. My prayers and thoughts are with you.
