“I was deeply saddened today to learn of the death of my friend Walter Lloyd.  He was a tremendous advocate for agriculture, education and rural communities, and his leadership will be sorely missed. 

            “Representative Lloyd worked tirelessly for the people of Colleton and Beaufort counties, and whenever I visited the area I knew I could count on seeing him.  He was active in his community and accessible to his constituents, and his absence will be felt. 

            “Emily and I send our heartfelt condolences to his wife Yvonne, and his two children, Tonya and Paulita.”
