Trey was a wonderful soul-always smiling, genuinely happy, and a joy to be around. He was truthful and direct, yet deeply kind, with a heart of gold and a willingness to help anyone in need. He lived boldly and passionately, embracing every day and every opportunity.
An avid outdoorsman, Trey loved riding his side-by-side and motorcycles, duck hunting, wake surfing, and spending time at the lake with friends and family. Some of his most cherished moments were spent with close friends at the duck pond, where laughter, camaraderie, and a shared love for the outdoors created memories that will be treasured forever. He was passionate about wildlife conservation and played an active role in the development of several duck impoundments. His respect for the outdoors reflected his appreciation for life and his desire to leave the world better than he found it.
Above all else, Trey loved his family, especially his daughters. He was a devoted and hands-on father, their teacher, protector, and biggest cheerleader. He shared knowledge and skills with them that most kids their age would never have the chance to learn, and he took immense pride in every milestone and accomplishment. Nothing could replace the bond he had with Charleigh and Averi, and the love they shared with their daddy will forever be treasured.
A true entrepreneur, Trey was endlessly creative and driven. He was the owner of County Line Grading & Landscaping, worked at Cedar Ridge Farm, and was the cofounder of Bloody Bills Duck Calls. Whether in business or in his hobbies, Trey succeeded in everything he did through hard work, vision, and determination.
A funeral service will be held at 2:00 PM on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, at the Lazy E Events Center in
Archdale, North Carolina. The family will receive friends prior to the service from 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM. Trey will be laid to rest during a private family ceremony at Floral Garden Memorial Park Cemetery in

habitat Foundation or to Gobbles And Grunts.
Trey's legacy of love, laughter, integrity, and generosity will live on through his children, family, and all those whose lives he touched.
