Lloy was born November 27, 1933 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Buell S. and Ida Briggs Bennett. She grew up on a ranch in Manila, Utah until the 5th grade when her family moved to Vernal. Lloy continued her education in Vernal and graduated from Uintah High School in 1952. She attended B.Y.U. in Provo for a short time before returning to Vernal. In March of 1953, Lloy met and dated Barney Sessions. They were married in the Salt Lake Temple on September 16, 1953.

They lost their second son, Drell, shortly after his birth. Lloy was a devoted member of the LDS Church and served in many church positions. She and Barney also served a two year Stake Mission.
