Lloydelle Bellamy, age 85, of Elwood, Nebraska passed away on Wednesday, December 6, 2023, at Lexington Regional Hospital, Lexington, Nebraska. She was born on April 29th, 1938, at Farnam, Nebraska.

Lloydelle lived her life to the fullest. She grew up in a log house outside of Curtis, Nebraska. She married Joe Bellamy on September 10th, 1954, in Eustis Nebraska, but spent most of her life in Elwood where she and Joe built their custom, German-style home.

They worked hard to build up their aerial spraying business, family farm as well as many other ventures. Lloydelle was never idle for long, she could often be found supporting her family, the church, and community. Her car was a familiar sight on the roads, constantly ferrying people and items including kolaches, donuts, and pies, a testament to her generous spirit. In her home, her talents in baking, canning, sewing, and crocheting were lovingly employed to enrich the lives of others. Although she may have slowed slightly in more recent years, her friend Mary’s support enabled her to remain on the go.

Lloydelle is survived by her sons Randy and wife Susan Bellamy, Brian and wife Shelly Bellamy, Kevin and wife Cheri Bellamy, 9 grandkids, 22 great-grandkids.
