Miriam Lloyd was born on May 19, 1947, in Grand Bassa County, Liberia, where she was raised and began her lifelong walk of faith. A woman of grace, strength, and unwavering devotion, she lived a life that exemplified service, love, and humility.

She was a faithful and devoted member of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Clearwater, Florida where she joyfully served in multiple ministries. Her heart for worship and service led her to dedicate many years to the Usher Board, Church Choir, Our CITA(Christ Is The Answer) Ministry, and the Nursing Home Ministry, where she offered comfort and companionship to the elderly.

Miriam transitioned peacefully on Sunday, July 20, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by…

Siblings: Betty Marpue Lloyd, Nathan Shoe Lloyd, Arthur Lloyd, Lucelia Sayah Barchue, Helen Lloyd-Massaquoi(who predeceased her), & Joseph T. Lloyd.
