It is with profound sadness that our family announce the passing of Troy at Ed's House Hospice on November 6. He was the much loved son of Garry & Lois, the loving brother of Garry Jr (Cheryl), Tracy (Stuart) and Susan, the adored fun uncle of Jonathan (Andrea), Christopher (Julie-anne), Jane, Ruth Ann, Cameron and Luke. Troy recently became a great uncle to little Nolan.
Troy lived his life fearlessly and lived every day to the fullest - he didn't waste a moment. He achieved a long held ambition when he co-published a book about the Hull family with his very best friend Kelly Leigh Martin.
To know Troy was to love him and he was loved by many. His much too early passing will leave a huge hole in the lives of so very many. He was incredibly passionate about his life, his family and his friends.
Cremation has taken place. There will be a future gathering to Celebrate Troy's Life at a time yet to be determined.
Memorial donations if desired may be made to Ed's House Hospice.
Garry Lois & family. Had no idea of Troy’s passing. So very sorry. Had a lot of fun times with Troy. Doug & Kathy
So sorry to learn of Troy's passing. I still remember the first time meeting him in 1989 I believe. He came to my home with Johnny and brought a bottle of drambue and that the was the start of the night. I had always enjoyed his company and crazy stories and escapades. We had planned to meet up on one of my trips to Niagara but alas that is not going to happen. My condolences.
I am so sorry to hear of Troy's passing. I met him about 10 years ago and kept meeting up with him through the years in different ways, He always had the biggest smile and was so vibrant. I always helped him with his book keeping and taxes so if there is anything you need help with please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
I remember finishing work, go to the marina, walk past Troy’s boat and everyday Troy would be a beaming light of smiles. He would invite me on to have a drink while he has his red wine. I met Troy while he was writing the book about the hull’s. My condolences to friends and family. His heart was one to be remembered
He was my friend and I will always remember him as a beautiful person
I am so sorry to read the passing of Troy. We became friends when we worked together at Rusco Windows and Doors. We instantly became close friends. Lots of love and laughter shared. Troy was lovely and one of a kind. He will be missed by the many who knew him. Deepest sympathy. Joanne Lauder.
Gary and Lois, I am so sorry to hear of Troy's passing, he was most defiantly a one of a kind. He will leave a big hole in your family,, so sorry.

My life will never be the same. Troy has been my best friend for 22 years. We were each others rocks, shoulders to lean on, we were a true life Will and Grace. Always could depend on each other. I love Troy more than words can say. Publishing a book with him was a memory I will cherish all the days of my life. Losing him so fast has just been heartwrenching. I will be forever grateful to Garry and Lois and Troys siblings for allowing me to spend Troys last weeks and moments with him. ?❤ Im so thankful that Troy knew I was there. RIP my dear sweet Troy. Until we meet again. I'll always love you.

My deepest condolences goes out to all of Troy's family and friends. I was fortunate to meet Troy through Kelly Martin at a hockey game fundraiser. Within that one day, I felt like I just met someone I have known for years. With my wife and daughter present that day, whom are avid horse lovers, we shifted from hockey to horses and everything else in life. I don't remember the score of the game, but I will always remember Troy, and I am blessed to have met him. He was a true inspiration for us.
I am so sorry for your loss. Prayer go out to you all.
Susan (and family) I’m so very sorry for the loss of your brother. I didn’t know him, but I do know how much I love my own brother, so I can only imagine how your heart is aching at this time. Wishing you much love and peace as you navigate the days ahead. Xo
