Floyd was the youngest of 5 and he was preceded in death by his parents, Otto and Alice (Linde) Huber. He obtained his Bachelor of Science degrees in Chemistry and Biology from Indiana University in 1961. He continued his education at the University of Illinois, where he obtained a Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Plant Pathology in 1965. Upon graduation, he joined the pharmaceutical firm of Eli Lilly and Company, where he spent 28 years as a Senior Research Scientist and retired in 1993. He was an author of many scientific papers and a member of scientific organizations. He married Mary L. Braun on June 5, 1976, and moved to Danville in 1977, where they maintained their permanent residence. After retirement, he enjoyed woodworking, reading and was a member of Phi Delta Kappa and Rotary Club of Danville. He became a founding member of the Unitarian Universalist Community Church in Danville in 1977. Floyd liked nothing better than hearing or telling a good(and sometimes bad) joke. He was preceded in death by his sister, Alice; brother, William G.; brother-in-law, William Christensen. He is survived by his wife of 32 years, Mary; daughters, Lysiane and Heidi; sons, Brett and Craig; twin brother, Frank; sister, Marion; sister-in-law, Joyce; grandchildren, great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.
