Obituary For Lloyd Bennett Dickerson
On Friday, September 26, 2025, Lloyd Dickerson, 70, of Greensboro, NC, transitioned peacefully from this earthly life at Moses Cone Hospital, Greensboro, NC. He was born in Henry County, VA on June 24, 1955, to the late Lloyd Herman Dickerson and Macie Lee Rumley Dickerson.
In addition to his parents, Lloyd was preceded in death by his dear wife, Ann Crutchfield, and two brothers, Carl “Dean” Dickerson and Anthony “Cleve” Dickerson.
Lloyd was a graduate of Laurel Park High School class of 1973. After graduating from high school, Lloyd enrolled at James Madison University where he received a master’s degree in Business Administration. He built a career as a licensed Real Estate Agent, faithfully serving clients in North Carolina for over 30 years. Beyond his professional life, Lloyd was deeply committed to community and fellowship. He was a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., a Mason, and a non-denominational ordained minister.
Lloyd was a man of quiet strength, generosity, and unshakable honor. His wisdom guided those around him, and his hugs carried a comfort that words could never match. Devoted to his family and grounded in unconditional love, resilience, and faith, he passed on a legacy of integrity, compassion and courage that will continue to shape the lives of those he loved most.
He is survived by Lynda Epps, his beloved “Sunshine” and fiancée; his daughter, Ashley Larkin (Shabazz) of Nashville, TN; and his two grandchildren, Royal Larkin and Legend Larkin, both of Nashville, TN. He is also remembered by his sisters, Cheryl M. Dickerson of Collinsville, VA and Teresa L. Carter (Chris) of Danville, VA; his brothers, Stafford “Lenny” Dickerson of Grand Prairie, TX, Felix W. Dickerson of Fayetteville, NC and Wesley L. Dickerson (Mary) of Raleigh, NC.

Mr. Dickerson, I know that you will be missed and be mourned by family and friends but, Now you can spread your heavenly wings and soar above the Pain and Enjoy the Peace and the Home that God has prepared for you.
My connection to Lloyd has been through his beautiful daughter, Ashley. I had the pleasure of meeting him at her wedding, and his presence was so tender and kind, just like hers. I'm told Ashley carries so much of his essence, which tells me Lloyd was a truly wonderful person because Ashley is one of the most stand-up, genuine humans I know. Now Ashley and her boys, Lloyd's beloved grandsons, will carry his legacy forward. Lloyd, you will always be remembered. ❤️
My sincere condolences during this time of loss.
Dear Ashley and family, we extend our most heart felt condolences. May the beautiful memories you gave of him comfort you in the days ahead! Fondly Carmen and Mark
I Miss You BROTHER, I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday and days before that, too. I think of you in silence. I often speak your name. All I have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake with which I'll never part. God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.
So sorry for the family's loss!! With deepest sympathy Fannie Smith and family
