Troy's final days
In May, 2014, Troy learned that he had cancer of the kidney with lesions on his liver. In an effort to encourage Troy to build up his strength, his Dad and Tina visited him for a week and month respectively. He was on chemotherapy for a short time when his body became weak and the chemo was discontinued. His dad was able to say one final goodbye the end of August. Then his Mom and sister, Tara visited in September. Sadly, Troy passed one day after his mom and sister returned to the United States. We will long miss his wonderful smile and generous spirit.
