Floyd Rex

Britt

Floyd Rex Britt, age 80, passed away on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at Durham Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.

Born on March 17, 1946, he was the son of the late Bill and Magdalene Westbrook Britt. In addition to his parents, Floyd was preceded in death by seven siblings.

Floyd was a skilled mechanic who could fix just about anything and was always willing to lend a helping hand when someone needed him. He was a simple man who lived life on his own terms and truly marched to the beat of his own drum. He loved to tell a good story, often leaving those around him with a smile or a laugh. Some of his happiest moments were spent sitting on the porch, enjoying the company of the people he loved. It was in those quiet times with family and friends that he was most at home.

Floyd is survived by his brothers, Billy "Junior" Britt of Micro, NC, and Bobby Britt and his wife, Jennifer, of Micro, NC; and his sisters, Linda Smith of Smithfield, NC, Bettie Howell of Micro, NC, and Jewel Hines of Brogden, NC.

A graveside service will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at Bradshaw Cemetery in Newton Grove.
