He worked in the uranium mines in New Mexico and copper mines in Arizona for several years before moving to Cardington, Ohio. From there he moved to Ringling, Oklahoma in 1996.

Floyd loved hunting, fishing, woodworking, and spending time with family. He lived a long, full life and will be dearly missed by many. He was of the Christian faith.

Preceding him in death were his parents, wife Rosemary, son Anothony, sister Dorothy, brother Russell and Lois, the mother of his children.

Survivors include his children, Floyd (Jennifer) Bortz, Jr., Yvonne (Brian) Eastep, Greta Skeens, Jonathan (Aloha) Bortz and Curtis Bortz; Stepchildren Ramona Johnson and Daniel Wolf; Siblings Chester, Mae, Virginia, Butch, Anna, Linda, and David; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.
