Harold Wayne Lloyd, 81, of Mooresville passed away peacefully at his home with family by his side on Saturday, July 18, 2026. Harold was born on October 29, 1944, in Evansville, Indiana, to the late William Lloyd and Annetta (Groh) Lloyd. Harold was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend whose presence will forever be cherished by all who knew him.
Harold graduated from Decatur Central High School. He married the love of his life, Jane M. Harman, on January 30, 1966. Their nearly 59 years of love and partnership were a testament to their deep bond, which endured even when Jane passed away on January 5, 2025.
Harold was employed by Marathon Oil where he worked as a transport driver until his retirement in 1975. In addition to his work, Harold was a lifelong sports enthusiast, proudly recognized as a member of the Decatur Football Hall of Fame. For over fifty years, he contributed his time and enthusiasm to the sport as part of the “chain gang,” showcasing his unwavering support for local athletics.
A man of many passions, Harold was an avid collector of classic hot-rod cars, owning a stunning ’54 Suburban Station Wagon, a ’30 Chevy, and a ’49 Chevy Pick Up, all of which he maintained with meticulous care. His love for these beautiful machines brought him much joy, and he often shared tales of their adventures. Known affectionately as the “Mayor of Gravity Hill,” he left a rememberable mark on his community and brought a smile to many faces.
