Extremely sad news indeed, Jeremy was a fantastic guy who adored the game of cricket and all those involved in it. He will be sadly missed by his former colleagues, the players, his dear wife and family.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jeremy at Scarborough one Sunday when the wet weather got the
Better of the days play between Yorks and Gloucestershire.
We had many more conversations at various grounds around the country and since that day at Scarborough. Jeremy always found time for a chat about anything and everything but most of all cricket when he saw me.
An incredibly lovely guy, RIP my friend, we will miss you.

Sad to read of the passing of Umpire Jeremy Lloyds at the relatively young age of 68. Good steady Umpire and former player. RIP Jeremy.

So very sad, a very good and imho a very underrated umpire. And someone I have heard from other sources to be extremely popular with the players.
RIP Jeremy

There is another thread in non footy forum too perhaps they can be merged?
Jeremy was a top class bloke, i have missed our regular chats since he left the umpires list.
My thoughts and condolences with his wife and family. RIP my dear friend.

Terribly sad news - my thoughts are with all those close to him. He was a fine umpire and cricket person. The amount of tributes I've seen from current & recent players speaks volumes for how respected he was in the game. RIP.
