Shirley A. Lloyd

Shirley A. Lloyd, 86, a lifelong resident of Keene, will be greatly missed by many with her passing on Sept. 26, 2025, at her home in Keene. Her parents, Forrest “Babe” and Bertha (Dubois) Cummings, welcomed their daughter into the world on Oct. 28, 1938, in Keene. She was a 1956 graduate of Keene High School. Shirley began her career in 1982 working with the Grange Mutual and later the Peerless Insurance Company in Keene, retiring in 2004. Her favorite times were those spent caring for children. She loved babysitting for many and had a special way with all those she cherished in this role. She set a good example for her own children, and later cared for her parents, a role reversed from her childhood. She was a generous and giving person, putting others first before herself. A devote parishioner of St. Margaret Mary Church in Keene, Shirley was a Eucharistic Minister during the weekly masses. Shirley was predeceased by a son, Steven Lloyd; a grandson, Will Lloyd; a brother, Carl Cummings; and a sister, Lorraine Pratt. She will be greatly missed by many, especially her husband of 62 years, Texas B. Lloyd of Keene; her two sons, Brian A. Lloyd and his wife, Tammy, of Rindge and Philip W. Lloyd of Keene; her grandchildren: Nicholas Lloyd and his partner, Angela Duval; Breana Vermette and her husband, Brennan; Spencer Lloyd, Cullen Lloyd and Carson Lloyd; her great-grandchildren, Travis Vermette, Aidan Lloyd, Braden Lloyd, Connor Lloyd, Isaiah Lloyd, Hailey Lloyd, Anita Lloyd and Ava Lloyd; and a daughter-in-law, Jodi Lloyd, of Troy. A graveside service and committal with family and friends was held on Oct. 2, 2025, in the Monadnock View Cemetery, Keene. Prayers were offered by the Very Rev. Alan Tremblay, Pastor of the Parish of the Holy Spirit in Keene. The Foley Funeral Home of Keene was entrusted with Mrs. Lloyd’s care.
