Lloyd Johnson

September 3, 1934 — July 1, 2021

Lloyd Marvin Johnson, 86, of Duluth, died Thursday, July 1, 2021 at home with his family by his side.  He was born September 3, 1934 in Duluth to Marvin J. and Gerda M. (Sundell) Johnson.  Lloyd attended Proctor High School.  He married Doris Y. Sams on March 16, 1957.  He was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather.

Lloyd was an entrepreneur of many business adventures throughout the years, but his passion was the family farm.  He thoroughly enjoyed traveling the world with his family and friends.  The words he lived by and instilled in us was “you have to look ahead, you can’t dwell on the past.”
