Floyd dedicated many years of his life working in the textile industry throughout Gaston and Lincoln counties.

An enthusiast of classic cars and tractors, Floyd had an adventurous spirit that shone through in everything he did. He had a remarkable way of connecting with people and was known for never meeting a stranger. Floyd was always ready to lend a hand to those in need, and he truly was the glue that held his family together.

Floyd is survived by his siblings Melvine Parton, Michael Huffstetler, and Betty Husky. He leaves behind a legacy of love through his children, Teresa Hall, Melinda Avery and Wanda Bryant, as well as five grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren who will remember him fondly.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Viola Dellinger Huffstetler and Flay Huffstetler, and his dear siblings, Alta May Hardin, Earnest Huffstetler, Brenda Sorrow, Martha Young, and Dennis Huffstetler.
