August 5, 1936 — October 24, 2022
Lloyd Hundley Jones, of Lynchburg, Virginia, passed away on October 24. He will always be remembered for approaching life with enthusiasm and his family and friends with compassion.
Lloyd was born on August 5, 1936, in Lynchburg to the late Buster D. and Lottie Arthur Jones of Lynchburg.
