In Loving Memory of Troy
It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we share the unexpected passing of our beloved friend and long-time community member, Troy. His loss has left a space that cannot be filled, and the echoes of his presence will be felt throughout our hearts and across the state.
Troy has been with us for many years, becoming not only a cherished part of our community but a symbol of strength, kindness, and joy. Over the years, staff and participants from all corners of the state have had the honor and privilege of knowing him — each one touched by his warmth, his humor, and the quiet courage with which he moved through the world.
He brought people together. He made us laugh. He reminded us, simply by being himself, of what it means to live with purpose and compassion. His legacy lives on in the relationships he built, the lives he touched, and the love he freely gave.
We invite you to join us in honoring Troy’s memory by sharing your stories, photos, and memories below. In our grief, let us also celebrate the incredible life he lived and the immeasurable impact he made.
Our hearts go out to Troy’s family, friends, caregivers, and to all across the state who are mourning this profound loss.
Rest in power, dear Troy. You will always be part of us.
We know this news may be difficult to hear. Troy had meaningful relationships with many of the people we serve, and we understand that his absence may bring confusion, sadness, or distress for some. Grief looks different for everyone, and some individuals may have a particularly hard time processing this sudden change.
We want to assure you that we are here to support you and your loved ones through this time. Our staff are prepared to offer emotional support, talk through any questions, and provide space for people to express their feelings in a safe and compassionate environment. We encourage families and caregivers to let us know if additional support is needed at home or in other settings.
This is a profound loss for our entire community, and we will continue to move through it together — with patience, kindness, and care.
