I am so shocked at this news. Nigel was a great neighbor and father. I miss having him live across the street from us and seeing him playing and loving his children. My thoughts and prayers go our to Marti, Robert and his children. I pray they will always know how much he loved them. RIP our friend.

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Trigger. We are old football teammates from our days in high school, always considered him a good guy and am heartbroken to hear of his passing.

I will never understand this tragedy. My heart will never be the same. Trigger has been the best friend any girl could ever ask for and I will miss him every day if my life. His laugh was infectious and his love was loyal. I will pray for his family left behind, his mother and the children who he loved more than life itself. I am so very sorry for your loss. He surely took a piece of my heart with him.

Sending prayers and condolences to all that have known my good buddy Trigs. He impacted my life in many ways. He was always quick witted and never held back his opinions. He always threw the biggest lures and cooked the best camp burgers! He was a good man and father. I always admired him and cherish my time spent with him.
