You were always an amazing friend Rest in peace. Cheryl Doublin DeJulius
Troy was a man of God. He was a good friend and a wonderful person. This world was blessed with his presence. Prayers for Jan and his family.
I was so sorry to have recently heard about Troy’s passing.. He will always be remembered as a talented vocalist and Choir Director but more importantly, a devout Christian and an exceptional father, husband and friend. I will always remember the duet “He’s so Wonderful.” Wish I had the tape . Our prayers are with you.The light of God surrounds you.
The love of God protects you.
The presence of God watches over you.
Wherever you are, .God is,
And all is well.
May God grant you peace and precious memories. God Bless you.
I am sorry for your loss. Troy was a great friend to my dad, Truett Newsom, and was such a comfort to our family when Dad passed away suddenly a few years back. I’m sure they are in heaven worshipping and swapping river trip stories together.
Tracey, I am so sorry to hear about your beloved Daddy! Please accept my deepest sympathies and know you and yours will be in my prayers as y’all continue to live this ride we call life without your Dad.
Heart felt prayers for the whole family. Troy was a unique man, full of love and compassion for his fellow humans and touched many of us, he was always there to lend an ear and gentle guide me. He will be missed.
We would like the Stevenson family to know we are thinking of them through this time and know that Mr. Stevenson’s contributions to this world and his Dallas and West Texas communities will not be forgotten. -Brett and Holly Bagwell
Our hearts go out to you and your family. Troy was an amazing person with a gift and a passion for music. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
What God KnowsIsaiah 46:10~Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, “My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.”God employed merism to describe Himself. Christ called Himself “the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” and then explained the figure of speech: “Who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty” Christ is eternal and His knowledge is complete.
There is nothing God didn’t know about your life; my dear friend; Troy; You may have known the past and present, but God alone knew your future. You walked securely — in what you knew, also in what you told Jerrell and I ( you were an overcomer in what you believed) On your eternal birthday ( Dec. 2nd ) nothing was a surprise to the master; about your his beloved servant.

WE are so very thankful we can play your voice singing, and saying ( Roll the Tape; would you?) what a Blessing !
Dearest Troy; your sweet Jan’s loss is heaven’s gain; we will always miss you & we will never forget you ! See you when we cross over the Jordan into Beulah Land. Wait for us ~
Jan and Family, Our prayers continue for all of you as you go through the sorrow of Troy’s passing. I know you rejoice because he is in the presence of our Lord and no longer suffering, but your hearts are still broken because you are separated from the man you loved dearly. May God cover you with his love and comfort in the days ahead. My family loves all of you. Troy blessed us in so many ways and will always have a special place in our hearts. God bless each of you.
