Mary M. Lloyd, age 68, of Silver Creek, Nebraska passed away peacefully Tuesday, October 19, 2021 at her home surrounded by the people she loved unconditionally and who loved her more than she ever realized.

Mass of Christian Burial will be 4:00 p.m. Friday, October 22, 2021 at St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Silver Creek. Visitation will be Thursday, from 4:00 -7:00 p.m. at St. Lawrence Catholic Church with a 7:00 p.m. vigil service to follow.  Interment will occur at St. Francis Cemetery Humphrey, Nebraska at a later date.

Mary was born September 24, 1953 in Columbus, Nebraska to Felix and Faye (Wemhoff) Krings. She grew up on the family farm near Tarnov, Nebraska with her five sisters and six brothers.  She graduated from St. Francis High School in 1971.

She was united in marriage to William Fischer in 1972 and to this union were born her beloved children, Justin, Jedd, and Shelley.

She was a stay-at-home-mother for many years before she began working at Humphrey Public School in the cafeteria where she enjoyed getting to know the students and reminding them daily to "smile".

She was united in marriage to Kenneth Lloyd on May 20, 2004.

Mary loved to stay involved in her children's many activities and was so proud as she watched them follow their dreams and accomplish their goals.  She loved dancing, traveling, and most importantly spending time with family, siblings, in-laws, grandchildren, and never missed a family reunion or holiday gathering.

Mary taught CCD classes to children for many years, was a member of the St. Lawrence Catholic Church, and was very devoted to her faith throughout her life.  Praying the rosary was of utmost importance to her and she prayed it countless times for the people she loved.

The family would like to express a special thanks to Connie Vanek; Jim, Bev, and Walt Bialas; the AseraCare hospice group, and Dr. Luke Lemke.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration ( https://www.theaftd.org/support-aftds-mission/ ) or St. Lawrence Catholic Church speaker system.
