Lloyd Adams Bingham
April 8, 1933 – February 11, 2025

Lloyd Adams Bingham was born on April 8, 1933, to William Jefferson Bingham and Clara Emmarene Adams Bingham in Moore, Idaho. He was the ninth of ten children.

The Bingham family cherished their time together, often gathering for family reunions filled with camping, fishing, campfire singing, guitar playing, card games, and providing music for dancing and social events.

Lloyd graduated from Butte County High School in Arco, Idaho, in 1951. He met Jerry Fae Whitehead of Salmon, Idaho, at a Stake youth activity in Moore. They were married on November 20, 1952, in the Idaho Falls Temple.

The couple began their married life in a small trailer on the west side of Idaho Falls before moving to Moore, where Lloyd built a home on the foundation of the old church. Later, he constructed another home south of Moore, where he lived until Jerry’s passing in 2016. In 2018, Lloyd built a home in Firth, Idaho, where he resided until his death.

Lloyd dedicated over 40 years to the Naval Reactor Facilities, starting as a laborer and eventually managing Radiological Control. Alongside his career, he maintained a small farm, raising animals to provide for his family. After retiring, he started a custom cabinetry business, creating beautiful cabinets for many in the Big Lost River and Little Lost River valleys. He also helped several of his children build and furnish their homes.

Lloyd and Jerry were blessed with six children: DeAnne (Larry Bevan), Craig Lloyd (Patti Metcalf), Chris W. (Pam Climer), Lynette (who died as a baby), Lynda Jo (Rick Hooper), and Sharyn Fae (Rick Barchers).

Both were active members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, serving in numerous callings including bishop, full-time missionaries, and temple workers.

Lloyd was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Jerry Fae; siblings William Howard, Maurice Jesse, Reynold Lot, Wanda Irene, Loraine Rebecca, Eula Violet, Lillian Hortence, Patsy Anne; daughters DeAnne and Lynette; and grandson Eric Bevan.

He is survived by his brother Ray Dee; sons Craig Lloyd and Chris W.; daughters Lynda Jo and Sharyn Fae; 32 grandchildren; 76 great-grandchildren; and 14 great-great-grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at the Moore Idaho Stake Center (3100 North 3350 West). A viewing and family time will begin at 1:00 p.m. Burial will follow at Lost River Cemetery.
