Floyd T. Mcbride

Mr. McBride is predeceased by his wife of 75 years, Elaine McBride; parents, Renfro and Lily McBride; son, Tommy McBride; brother, Leo McBride and sister, Estelle Wilson. Floyd is survived by two daughters, Linda McBride Osborn (Ken Osborn), and Coleen McBride Curd (Richard Curd). Floyd is also survived by his sister, Barbara Moon of Rainbow City. Floyd and Elaine shared 8 grandchildren together: Beth Renda, Golden Osborn, Ry Osborn, Brian McBride, Melaine McBride Legg, Melissa McBride Rosengarten, Corey Tittle and Courtney Tittle; 16 great-grandchildren, 1 great-great-grandchild, and several nieces and nephews.

Born to Renfro and Lily McBride in Camp Hugh, Alabama on June 23, 1925, Floyd was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. After meeting Elaine in St. Augustine, Florida, Elaine and Floyd married and eventually moved to Birmingham, Alabama where they raised their three children, Tommy, Linda and Coleen. Floyd was deeply loved by family and friends. He was an avid fisherman both freshwater and saltwater. He loved to watch his grandkids play softball and baseball. Floyd and Elaine loved to catch episodes of the Price is Right and never missed a broadcast of an Atlanta Braves’ game. Floyd proudly served his country as a member of The United States Marines Corps. He was a WWII veteran and a Purple Heart recipient. Our granddaddy will be dearly missed by us all.

Services for Mr. McBride will be held on Thursday, October 13, 2022. Visitation will be held at Ridout’s Trussville Chapel at 1 pm, followed by the service at 2 pm. The burial will be held at Jefferson Memorial Gardens.
