He graduated in 1956 from Doniphan High School in Doniphan, Missouri.
Lloyd served in the Reserve of the Army National Guard for 8 months, then enlisted in the United States Air Force in 1956 until his discharge in 1960. During his enlistment, he completed his basic training at Lackland AFB and his technical training in weather at Chanute AFB.

Lloyd began his employment as a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in 1960. He retired in 1995 after more than 39 years of combined federal service.
