Jeanelle (Baird) Lloyd

June 18, 1931 — August 15, 2015

Jeanelle (Jan) Baird Lloyd (84) passed away in her home in Springville, Utah, August 15, 2015 due to complications of a stroke.
Jan was born June 18, 1931 in Heber City, Utah to Vernor E. Baird and Mary Agnes (Walker) Baird Huffman.
She grew up in Heber City and learned to love the country life. She spent her summers at the sheep camp with her father and became a sharp shooter, and excellent horsewoman.
She had a scholarship to an art school in California, but ended up staying in Utah and finding the love of her life, Garn Lloyd. They were married and sealed March 2, 1951, in the Salt Lake Temple, and built a wonderful life together.
Jan continued to be passionate in the arts with her painting and floral design. Anything she dreamed up had a special ‘Jan’ quality. Mom and Dad built two houses using her designs.
Everyone Jan met became fast friends and Mother cherished those friendships. She loved a good adventure; travelling (especially the coast), boating, hiking, rock and arrowhead hunting. She had a great enthusiasm for life and found so much joy because of that. She was filled with sunshine and she frequently wore her favorite color, yellow.
Jan was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in all organizations, with energy and love. She was a great leader. She always said she was born with a testimony of the truthfulness of the gospel, and she lived it.
No one left Jan and Garn’s home empty. If you needed love, food, friendship, or whatever, you could find it there. Her pies were lovingly delivered to neighbours, widows and widowers, and the lonely. She would drop what she was doing to help those in need.
Mother’s life was filled to the brim with family and friends and we will all feel an empty spot in our lives and hearts with her gone, but we will have peace knowing “Families are Forever.”
Dad’s unwavering love and care for Mom was tender and touching, and set a great example for us all.
She is survived by her loving husband Garn, and five children; Wayne (Cathy) Lloyd - South Jordan, UT, Steven (Phyllis) Lloyd - Sacramento, CA, Sherrie (Kent) Allred - Lindon, UT (serving in South Africa Johannesburg Mission), David (Lola) Lloyd – Payson, UT, Daniel (Marci) Lloyd, Cedar Hills, UT.  Garn and Jan have 18 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren. She has one sister Audrey (Grant) Lindsay, whom she loves dearly. She also loves her many nieces and nephews.
A viewing will be held Wednesday August 19, 2015 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Wheeler Mortuary, 211 E. 200 S., Springville.  Funeral services will be held Thursday, August 20, 2015 at 11 a.m. in the Springville Kolob 10th Ward at 2557 S. Dalton Drive in Springville.  There will be a viewing held at the church from 9:30 to 10:45 prior to the services.  Interment will be in the Springville Evergreen Cemetery.
The family wishes to express gratitude to the many doctors, nurses, and hospice that helped with Jan’s care, and especially to Whitney Marshall.
