Loyd W. Hatley

Loyd W. Hatley, age 89, of Wickliffe, Kentucky, passed away at his home on Friday, February 9, 2024.
 
Loyd was born in Berkley, Kentucky, on May 23, 1934, to the late Thomas Edgar and Willie Inez Johnson Hatley. Loyd was a carpenter and a member of the Local 812 union. He was an avid fisherman and loved to drive his golf cart to the riverfront in Wickliffe. Loyd enjoyed listening to country music and watching old Western movies. Later in Loyd’s life, he developed a very close relationship with his neighbors, The Shaw Family. This relationship grew to the point that they felt more like family than neighbors, and their children, Kylie, Keira, and Kami, affectionately knew him as “Grandpa Loyd.”
 
He is survived by a sister, Barbara Perry of Sanger, Texas; a brother, Jewel Thomas Hatley of Tampa, Florida; and several nieces and nephews.
 
Loyd was preceded in death by his wife, Christine Hall Hatley; two sisters, Yvonne Hatley, and Alice Turner; his parents; and two step-sons, Wilber Hall Lampkin and Roger Dale Lampkin.
