"To Lyle and Porky, Troy will be sadly missed. I remember Way back when we were kids playing guitar and playing horseshoes. His style was so much like Chet Adkins and back on both of what she loves so much music we heard and we try to sing that was so funny! I will remember the laughter and the fun we all had. My prayers go out to you and Family"
