Mrs. Floyd died Sunday, February 3, 2013 at her home. She was born September 13, 1926 at Lula, Oklahoma to Robert Nathan and Deborah Ollie Dennis Gilstrap.

She was also a self-employed cake decorator. Mrs. Floyd was a 59 year member of the Oklahoma Home and Community Education (OHCE) Extension Homemakers and a longtime member of the Oklahoma Farm Bureau Women's Committee (OFBWC).

She was well known in these organizations throughout the state for her tireless contribution and her relentless determination to make a difference. Mrs. Floyd was of the Methodist faith.
