I went to high school with Troy you always gave me a ride to school everyday we used to hang out all the time we were even in a band together we both play guitar he even wrote the lyrics I always had a good time with Troy he was always a really good friend to me sad that we lost touch over the years after I moved I just recently found out through another high school friend that he just passed away I'm very sad to hear about this I wish I would have heard about it sooner I'm not sure exactly what might have happened to him I haven't heard how he passed away but regardless of that I will miss him always and I will remember him forever and all the great times that we have together throughout high School rest in peace my dear friend

Dear Ed and Zelma, Barbara and I are so sorry for your loss. As parents, we are not built to bury our children. This is the most difficult experience any parent can have. We pray for Troy and for you both.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Troy was my best friend. We had so many great times together talking and sharing our stories with each other. We had a lot in common, so there was always something we could discuss in-depth. Troy was so very passionate about his writing! The accomplishments he made throughout his life were unbelievable. I will never forget his sense of humor, his quick wit and his great laugh. He would write poetry and read it to me every time we were together, along with telling me some of the many interesting and wonderful stories he has written (or was in the process of writing) - I will cherish these memories. Troy impacted my life in such a positive way, I told him so many times how he had made me a better person. I will miss Troy so very much! I am so honestly thankful that he was in my life and I will strive to always be a better person because of it.
