Geneva Williams Lloyd went to be with the Lord at the age of 92 on March 1, 2023.
Born on April 24, 1930, in Jacksonville, Florida to Frank Robert Williams and Effie Osteen Williams. She and Noel Nolan Lloyd were married in Jacksonville, FL. They moved to Brunswick, Ga in 1962 and worked for Seapak until 1965 when it was hit by Hurricane Dora. The family moved to Helena, Ga in 1972 where she worked as a contractor house painter with her husband and brother-in-law for several years. Since Geneva loved antiques and had a hobby of attending flea markets and yard sales, she opened and ran a flea market/antique shop in Helena, Ga for many years. Geneva was also a preacher for several years at the Congregational Holiness Church that was located across from the baseball field in Helena, Ga. Due to health issues, she moved to Springdale, Arkansas to live with her daughter.
