Notes:

Rev. Eby was of PA. Dutch ancestry. His father was of the Mennonite faith, although later his parents joined the Evangelical Church. His own conversion was in 1908 with the Salvation Army at age 17 at a street meeting.

In 1913 (at 22) he married Lizzie Thornton, born in London, but as a child had moved to Canada. They moved to Toronto, and started 3 churches. In 1918 Lizzie died in childbirth. The child died too.

Eula Sherk, an outgoing young woman from the Sherkston UB church, was doing mission work in Toronto. A relationship developed, and Eula and Lloyd were married April 5, 1920.

The next year they headed off to Huntington College to prepare for the mission field. During their 18 months in Huntington, he pastored the Etna Avenue U.B. church. He received his D.D. from H.C. in 1950. He was ordained in 1926 by Bishop Hoskins.

In 1923, they traveled to Sierra Leone. Lloyd became principle of the 50-student Danville School for Boys at Gbangbaia. They served just one term.

The next 17 years were spent in the Detroit area, pastoring the Warrendale UB church and starting five more churches. Lloyd became somewhat of an authority on urban ministry. Core groups from Warrendale would begin an outreach in a community, meeting in a school or strip mall or anything else available. Lloyd coordinated the groups and met regularly with the leaders.

In 1944, with World War II in progress, Lloyd was asked to return to Sierra Leone, this time as field superintendent, the person in charge of the entire field. From the city to the African bush. Again, the Ebys served just one term.

In 1947, Lloyd became superintendent of the Ontario and Detroit conferences. In 1949, he was elected bishop and spent the next eight years serving the West District.

Then it was back to Africa for one more term, again as field superintendent. He was now 67 years old, but told people, "The call of my church is the call of my God."

Lloyd and Eula retired in 1962 in Fort Wayne, IN. where they attended the Third Street U.B. church (now called Anchor) until his death in 1969. It had been an amazing life, full of diversity. But it was far from over.

He served the United Brethren churches in Toronto, Ontario, and Detroit, MI. and in Ohio. He served as conference superintendent and as Bishop (1949 - 1957). He had a vision and a call to start churches in large cities, mainly Detroit (17 years) and Toronto (8 years). He also served the Etna Avenue Church for 1 1/2 years.

But probably the most important part of his life was spent on the mission field in Sierra Leone, West Africa. He and his wife were there for about 10 years. He challenged his staff to meet with him at 5 a.m. for prayer, when the muslin drums sounded a call to prayer.

Later in his life he corresponded with about 400 missionaries in over 60 countries and prayed for them each day...often for hours. His humility regarding his service, his selflessness, his dignity, his white hair, and his German accent, gave him a patriarchal air befitting a Bishop Emeritus. Lloyd and Eula enjoyed 49 years together\endash years of diverse ministry which included three missionary terms in Sierra Leone, planting six churches in the Detroit area, and eight years in the bishopric.

They retired in Fort Wayne, Ind. Lloyd passed away in 1969, Eula in 1988. Information supplied by Mary Lou Funk, in a church Sunday School paper for the U.B. Church.

'A fine, upstanding gentleman in all things'
Former Waterloo North MPP and founder of funeral home, Edward Good dies at 83.

Edward R. Good, the founder of a Waterloo funeral home and a former MPP, died Thursday. He was 83. Good was born and grew up in Kitchener. He attained the rank of second Lieutenant with the Royal Canadian Artillery during the second World War, began the Edward R. Good Funeral Home in 1946 and served as the Liberal MPP for Waterloo North from 1967 to 1977. "I thought the world of Ed Good," said former Ontario Liberal leader Robert Nixon. "He was a very effective spokesman on all provincial issues, and was very well respected by the people in all parties," said Nixon. "He was a pretty solid citizen, and I found him to be an outstanding man to work with And he was always a lot of fun - a very enjoyable man to be with." Good won three elections with relative ease, and was the Liberal critic on municipal affairs for most of his years in the opposition benches. Long-time friend, Jim Breithaupt, a former Kitchener Centre MPP, said Good made a strong, lasting impression on just about everyone he met. "Ed made himself an expert on municipal law. He started fresh and learned on the job, and he did an exceptionally fine job," said Breithaupt. "I was very impressed with his strength of conviction, and the impression he made on people. He was a fine, upstanding gentleman in all things, and a very effective MPP for Waterloo North." Good purchased and renovated the building at 171 King St. S in Waterloo and turned it into a funeral home - a business now run by his son, Paul Good and long-time business partner Jim Erb. "Whenever anybody asks about Ed, the thing that comes to mind first and foremost was his integrity," said Erb. "He was a gentleman through and through, in every aspect of his life, and in the way he greeted people, responded to people and respected people." Until about two years ago, Good retained an active interest in the business, and kept an office at the funeral home, he said. Through the years, Good was also president of the Waterloo Lions Club, president of the Central Ontario Funeral Directors Association, and a member of Branch 530 of the Royal Canadian Legion in Waterloo. Good was predeceased by his wife, Rhea, in 1997. He's survived by three sons, Paul, of Waterloo, David of Victoria, B.C. and John of Toronto, as well as five grandchildren.
