The nickname ‘Head Man’, which Floyd was known by for some seventy years, was given to him by Jim Williams when Floyd was a boy of about nine or ten when he spent many of his free hours helping out doing odd jobs around Carter’s Grocery Store in West Fork.
Floyd was buried at Bugscuffle Cemetery under the direction of Luginbuel Funeral Home, and to honor his wishes, no services were held. The family deeply appreciates the excellent care he received from the wonderful team of doctors and nurses at The Walker Heart Institute and Washington Regional Hospice.
