Words could never describe the reverence we feel for the life of our sweet patriarch, Paul Lloyd. His family, friends and missionaries in all parts of the world will honor him forever. He was born September 25, 1916 in Salt Lake City to Ezra Timothy and Jennie Hubbard Lloyd. He was sealed to his eternal companion, Gwendolyn Poulson in the Salt Lake LDS Temple June 30, 1942. His life was marked by love and service to his God, his family and his country. At a young age he served a faithful LDS mission to Argentina and later he served five additional missions with his sweet wife. He served as president of the Caracas Venezuelan mission as well as president of the Missionary Training Centers in Santiago, Mexico City and London. Missionary work was the passion of his life. His love for the work led the way and, to date has influenced 24 of his children and grandchildren to serve missions, with many more to follow. He served in many church positions but, in his own words, his preferred titles were husband, father, grandfather, and Elder. He and his sweetheart are the parents of eight children; 43 grandchildren; 23 great-grandchildren; and children, Judy (Lowell) Anderson, Robert (Carol) Lloyd, Bruce (Joan) Lloyd, Jeannie (Steve) Goalen, Doug (Debbie) Lloyd, Ted (Julie) Lloyd, Laurel (Jeff) Lindley, Tami (Curtis) Cutler. A veteran of World War II, he served his country on active duty in Uruguay and California. Upon completion of his military service he returned to Utah and began a career in education that lasted more than 30 years. He touched lives of students at Springville, Provo, and Timpview High Schools. More recently, he taught seminary throughout Utah County. Services will be 11 a.m. Wed. Nov 13, Oak Hills LDS Fourth Ward Chapel, 925 E. North Temple, Provo. Friends may call at the church 90 minutes prior to the service, and at Sundberg Olpin Mortuary, 495 S. State St, Orem 6-8:00 p.m. Tues. Nov 12. Interment, East Lawn Memorial, Provo, UT. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions to the general LDS Church missionary fund.
