Louisville, KY Clarence Lloyd Woosley, 87, a veteran of the Korean War and longtime spoiler of his grandchildren, passed away on December 15, 2016. Lloyd played many roles throughout his life, giving his all to each and every one: husband, father, brother, uncle, friend, Kentuckian, farmer, mess sergeant, volunteer fire fighter, printer, restaurant manager, pipe smoker, flea market maven, yard sale aficionado, moped enthusiast, Hank Williams fan, RV camper, computer tinkerer, dog lover, lawn care specialist and perhaps most importantly, biscuits and gravy connoisseur. He was born to Fred Clovis Woosley and Ada Tomes on June 5, 1929 in Caneyville, KY. Growing up on a farm inbred a work ethic that remained with him all his days. He served his country dutifully overseas as a sergeant in the United States Army and his community for twelve years as a member of the Lake Dreamland Volunteer Fire Department where he served as Captain. He wed Doll Rose Fey on July 22, 1950 in Louisville, KY amd together they raised two daughters. They were married 57 years until her passing in 2007. They lived happily in Louisville until retirement took them to Winter Haven, FL where they enjoyed life of good friends, golf carts and bingo. After fifteen years of summer in January, the bluegrass called them home and they returned to Kentucky to be closer to family, settling in Mount Washington. Lloyd spent his final year living in Wimberley, TX surrounded by grandchildren, great grandchildren and his beloved dog, Bailey, with whom countless hours were spent brainstorming for the million-dollar idea that always seemed to just elude them. He was preceded in death by: his parents; his sister, Betty; wife, Doll Rose Fey; and son-in-law Daniel Fowler. He is survived by his brothers: Ed (Clara) and Fred (Dolores) Woosley; his daughters, Susan Crusham (Michael) and Darlene Fowler; his grandchildren: Todd, Kyle Crusham, Kelly (Crusham) Yerks and Christy Fowler; and four great grandchildren: Paige, Kerrigan, Everly and Jude.
