Osbert, who was fondly called 'Cookman' had a passion for cooking and
cultivating crops. He was a great lover of music, life, and people in general.
He took great joy in spending time with family and friends and taking care
of people in need. He was a giver by nature and his generosity knew no
bounds and transcended his time here on earth. Consistent with his life, at
his death his benevolence was on full display and was demonstrated
through the donation of his organs to save another life. This was a sober and
dignified decision he made long before the Lord called him home.
His cheerful attitude and bright smile always preceded him and he will
forever be missed by his family Despite passing away from this world, his
memory will live on through the many lives he touched during his tenure
here on earth. We will always remember the kind soul and the beacon of
light that was Osbert 'Cookman' Lloyd.
