Floyd was the 1st person we met at Weavers Needle RV Park. He helped us park our 5th wheel & we all laughed that he had just saved our marriage. We met Diane the next day and became forever friends. Floyd had the most wonderfully warped sense of humor & gave the best hugs. We love you Diane. Praying for comfort in the wonderful memories you and Floyd made together.
RIP Floyd. You will be so missed by sooooo many people. Your kindness, friendship and funship where second to none. Be at peace.
What a wonderful photo, captured Floyd’s personality, so sorry Diane and family, hoping fond memories will bring you all peace
I’m so sorry to hear about Floyd ‘s passing. My one year at Weaver’s needle was one. I will never forget. Floyd and Diane always drove about 10 o’clock over to the dog park to make sure I got home safely with my little dog. he was a very kind and loved man.
Hope we can be in Apache Junction. For the service
Floyd you were the best brother and I will miss you until I get there. So many wonderful memories and some very special times with you over the years. Really enjoyed yours and Diane’s visit every December to celebrate your anniversary. You were a great brother to Randy and now you guys are together. What a celebration up there with the family. We will miss you nobody can fill your shoes. Love you forever.
Floyd & Diane were one of the first people I met when I arrived at Weavers Needle.. He made me feel protected & secure with his watchful eye & sense of humour. He was so kind & thoughtful & always had a story to make me a chuckle. He will be greatly missed by his many friends in Az & his family. RIP my friend.
Floyd was the best he had so many stories to tell and many laughs we had with him and Diane! He had the best personality everyone enjoyed him! We all will treasure the memories of him! May he rest in peace, no longer in pain and suffering,
Sorry for your loss. See you July 12th.
Love and miss that man! Going to try and make it in July
Floyd was the first person we met @ Weaver’s Needle. He helped park our rig and told us all about the park. Floyd and Diane were our instant friends and yes, the stories and jokes he came up with would put a smile on anyone’s face. So sad to loose such a great friend. I’m sure he’s piling up many more good jokes for when we all meet again. Rest in Peace, Floyd!
Rose and I spent a Christmas at Weavers Needle. Enjoyed the time we spent with Di and Floyd. Our deepest condolences 💐.
He was a great man. I loved golfing with him at The Links. His story telling was very humorous.
I will truly miss him.
Floyd & Diane you were such a huge help to us while we were in Weavers Needle! Diane condolences and thinking of you at this sad time!
Floyd left a larger than life void not only at Weaver’s Needle park but in the world in general. Godspeed on the next adventure in Heaven my friend!💚! Sending prayers of comfort to dear Diane!
There will be a big hole in our park. We won’t hear his lafter at his stories at ‘happy hour’!
Rest in peace my friend!
Floyd, Was really aged person. He gave his life to helping others in the field and in dispatch. I spent many days and nights as one of the three “Spokane County fire service Area Coordinators”. I spent time in dispatch at 3:00 am and at 3:00pm. All of the folks that I worked with were first/top grade as was, Floyd. I am happy to talk with anyone from the family.
I am so sorry at his loss, all I can say is God Bless Floyd, and all that he loved!
