The untimely passing of Lloyd A. Dugan, 71, July 12, 1997, was
deeply felt by family and many friends. Masonic funeral services
were held in Borger, Texas. Graveside services were held under the
auspices of Isom Masonic Lodge 1242 of which Lloyd was a member. He
was also a member of Borger Eastern Star Chapter 811 and Borger
American Legion 671. He was a gas measuring engineer.
Lloyd married Thelma Litchford June 4, 1981. They made their
home in Fritch, Texas, but during winter months they resided in
Mission, Texas.

probably his major interest was the restoration of John Deere
tractors. While enjoying the mild winter climate in Mission, Lloyd
was a member of an antique tractor club and spent much time
restoring John Deeres.
A member of the Golden Spread Antique Machinery Association (in
his home area), Lloyd was hard at work at least two weeks before
the annual show each September.

Yvonne Nichols of Borger, Texas, and Kiona Payne of Odessa, Texas;
