Troy...We'll catch up again someday Troy. Your time here was cut way too short but I know you're making people laugh where ever you are. I'll miss hearing you say "hey g, come in here (office)" because I knew a good youtube video was about to be shared. Its good to know we have the same sense of humor. You made work fun and I cant thank you enough for that. You have no idea, or maybe you do know, how much your missed. You're a special person and I'm glad we got to spend so many good times here at work. As you would always say...See you next Tuesday...g

I grew up with Troy as family friends. Went on a lot of vacations with him, his sister and family. They were like a ext. family to the mattsons which are my family. Troy was always happy and positive. That's what I remember of him and he was a great listener. His celebration of life today was very sad. He left the world way to early, but like someone said the lord has the final say. I hope he's up there happy and ran into my grandma Keith who was very close to him. He will be greatly missed. God bless you Troy.

Troy's path crossed mine in Circulation Customer Service so many years ago. Throughout the years that followed, Troy always had a warm hello and a smile. His smile showed on his entire face. An amazing human being. This world needs more Troys.

My deepest condolences to the West and Redondo families. Troy was a great person to work with and a good friend. He worked hard, provided support to all, and built solid friendships at The Bee. He would laugh with you, laugh at you; share good times, endure difficult times; accept challenges head-on and celebrate successes.
Troy, you left our world way too soon. You'll be sorely missed but always remembered. Be at peace, friend.

We will miss Troy. It seems like yesterday you invited me to your 21st birthday...some 23 years ago. This friendship lasted a long time. Your sense of humor and personality always made me laugh. No one will ever be able to call my name as authentic as you and have a signature sound .."Randyyyy".....so Troy "Bee" good. Rest in Peace

I met and worked with Troy 25 years ago when he joined the Bee. His outgoing personality and infectious smile was already well honed. He must have been born with a grin. A tad short but darn cool. Rest in peace Troy.

My thoughts and prayers are with all who knew and loved Troy. It has been my pleasure to work with Troy, who always had time to support anyone who needed his guidance, including me. An invaluable member of the Sacramento Bee staff, but more importantly a kind and wonderful human being. You will truly be missed Troy.

My condolences. Troy always welcomed me and my family to the West Holiday meals in Roseville. I first met Troy in Tokyo, always a thoughtful and polite young man. Troy had a quick wit, was very well read and just a very nice individual.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was just looking at facebook a few days ago and someone posted a picture of a bunch of people from Oakmont and I saw Troy and thought of him. I went to jr high with him and I will always remember how kind and sympathetic he was when my dad was suddenly killed during my jr high year. He signed a nice card and I had a bunch of classes with him. He was always a great guy, always smiling. Someone that you wanted to be around and like I said ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON HIS FACE. His death is such a loss he was my age. I am so sorry he is a great great smart guy.
