He enjoyed watching LSU football, LSU baseball, and working with his cattle. He was a long-time member of the American Quarter Horse Association and National Cutting Horse Association and was a 25-year Quarter Horse Breeder.
Floyd will be remembered as a man who took care of his family. He worked extremely hard to make us comfortable and happy. He had mechanical skills and could repair most anything. He loved his horses, tractor, and cattle. He was a true cowboy. Anytime we had a problem he was always available to “fix it” and he did!
