1931 - 2005 
 
Lloyd Robert Grant 

Lloyd Robert Grant died on November 9, 2005 and he was born on September 15, 
1931 in Canoga Park, CA. At the age of 18, he moved to Taft to attend junior 
college where he played baseball and met his life long love, Mildred Ahmann 
whom he married in 1951. Lloyd went to work for Standard Oil Company in 1951 
and he served in the U.S. Army from 1952 1954. When he returned home he 
continued working for Standard Oil. Lloyd pursued his education by returning 
to Taft Junior College under the G.I. bill and earned his Associate of Arts 
degree. Lloyd advanced to area foreman for Standard Oil prior to his 
retirement after 26 years of service. He continued his 40 year oilfield career 
by working for independent companies. His final employment was with Bob Morton 
Construction, ending in 1990 because of heart problems. Lloyd loved 
construction and carpentry, building garages, patios and handcrafting 
beautiful items for his home. He enjoyed hunting in his earlier years and 
became an avid and expert deep sea fisherman, winning several tournaments. He 
gardened and canned fruits and vegetables and raised animals, which he loved, 
especially his poodles. Lloyd is survived by Mildred, his wife of 54 years; 
his son and daughter-in-law, Robert and Mona Grant of Bakersfield; his 
daughter and son-in-law, Kathryn and H.J. Desy of San Diego; his daughter and 
son-in-law, Diana and Jesse Esparza of Bakersfield; his grandchildren, 
Jeffrey, Crystal (May), David Grant, Rob and Sarah Desy, Natalie and Anthony 
Esparza. In accordance with Lloyds wishes, private graveside services will be 
held. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the American Cancer Society 
or a charity of your choice. The arrangements are under the direction of the 
Erickson & Brown Funeral Home.
