We met in Shreveport in 1996, when Troyce had his heart surgery and my mom was in ICU. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the familiy during this time. My dad is from Springhill,LA, and I live in Atlanta, TX. We think about you'll often as we travel from one place to the other. May God be with you always and even closer during this time.

Joyce and Family,

Troyce was always a hero of mine. I have watched and listened many hours to Daddy and Troyce argue about every topic under the sun. Until ....it came time to get things done, then they would join hands and work for the same goals. They were true friends. I always marveled at Troyce's eagerness to get things going from sports to farming. Troyce was never shy about bragging on his girls and their basketball/achivements. I have not had the priviledge of visiting with Troyce over the past few years but I have lots of fond memories that will never die. Please accpet my sincere condolences. Sincerely, David Byrd

My dad valued his friendship with Troyce over many years. Troyce was a pallbearer at my dad's funeral in 1971.

May you experience the presence and peace of God in the midst of your profound loss.

God bless you,
