Dr. Stephen Douglas Floyd, 47, of Watkinsville, Georgia, died on September 20, 2005. He is survived by his wife, Joanne Asher Floyd, his son, Daniel Jackson Floyd, and his daughter, Emily Elise Floyd.
Dr. Floyd graduated from the University of Georgia in 1980 and from The Medical College of Georgia in Augusta in 1984. He established Oconee Pediatrics in 1988 and has worked as a pediatrician in Watkinsville ever since. Dr. Floyd has been actively involved as an elder at Christ Church Presbyterian for many years.
Dr. Floyd was such a man of integrity; a man who loved God and put Him first in everything; a husband and father who loved his family and thoroughly enjoyed them; a pediatrician who loved his patients and served them well; an outdoorsman who loved to fish and hunt and ride horses; a man who loved music and recently learned to play the dulcimer. He was so full of life and will be greatly missed by so many people.
