“In memory of Troy, I remember him as a supportive dad, in whatever Emma was doing, specifically in regards to softball. It was great to see him cheer on Emma at the games. I'm thankful my daughter got to experience a trip to the lake with him and Emma. My heartfelt condolences go out to Emma in the loss of her dad. Emma, remember the good and know that we love you! Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss.”

Grace Cunningham wrote a sympathy message

“Mike and My deepest sympathy goes out to Troy's loved ones. Troy was always jovial and fun to be around. He always had a quip or an incident he would share with us and make us laugh. Troy would tell us about Emma's latest escapades wether it be sports or boys. She is definitely the apple of his eye! We will miss seeing Troy trek down to the boat with his gear and goofy hat and a smile from ear-to-ear because he was going fishing!! Troy, see you later............ Grace & Mike Cunningham”

Paula Meegan wrote a sympathy message

“Troy wasn't only a colleague, but moreover someone I considered a good friend. He was always kind, warm, compassionate, and so incredibly funny. During the last year he was one of few to check on me with a quick call or funny text or email - all of which I was so grateful for. My heartfelt condolences to his family, who he always spoke so lovingly. And his daughter, Emma, whom he absolutely adored and was so incredibly proud of. I will miss my friend.”
