On Wednesday, November 20, 2019, Lloyd Shelton passed away surrounded by family.

Lloyd was born in McDowell County, WV to Frederick Lee and Bertha Easter (Dowdle) Shelton.

Lloyd is preceded in death by his wife, Dora Mae Shelton, daughter, Barbara Carol Shelton, and son, Lloyd Shelton Jr.

Lloyd is survived by “his girls”—his daughter Beverly Ann LaRochelle (Dan) and granddaughters Summer Ashley Shelton, Sara Meagan Shelton, and Rebecca Lynn LaRochelle—as well as a host of nieces, nephews, siblings, and loved ones.

Lloyd was a proud member of the United Mine Workers of America, spending four decades under

ground mining. 

Lloyd was dedicated to his family. He could often be found helping his brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, cousins, children, and grandchildren. He was grateful for his family, especially to Roy and Tina Payne for helping him remain in his home as long as possible.

A visitation will be held 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sunday, November 24, 2019, with a funeral immediately following at the Chapel of Fanning Funeral Home in Iaeger.
