Jared Lloyd will be missed. A father of two young boys, a loving son, and a hero to Rockland County, Lloyd was a man deeply invested in his community. He was laid to rest this afternoon after hundreds of first responders packed the Palisades Credit Union Park to honor their fallen comrade.
Lloyd, 35 years old, had served his community as a member of the Spring Valley Volunteer Fire Department for 16 years before he and his brother firefighters were called to the Evergreen Court Home For Adults in the early hours of Tuesday morning March 23. Lloyd and his company heroically evacuated 112 elderly and disabled residents from one of the worst fire’s the village had ever seen.
