Troy-
I cannot begin to explain how much you will be missed. I am so glad you moved to Kansas City, and we were all lucky enough to get to know you and have you in our lives. As a friend and co-worker, even as a manager at Waterway, I would not trade one second of our time togther. My memories with you are precious, and your family is in my thoughts during this difficult time.

To Troy's entire family,
Know that you all will be forever in my thoughts and prayers. I am searching for the words to express my sincere condolences but having just experienced this four and a half years ago I know there is nothing I can say to ease the pain. Try to make peace with it knowing that he is in a better place and the stresses of daily life are no longer a burden to him.

Take all the happy memories you had with him and relive them everyday!

God bless you all.
