Troy was such a special person with such a big heart! I was always so happy to see him and I feel blessed for having known him. I loved spending time with Troy. His sense of humor and ability to be silly was contagious. I miss him very much and the sudden tragic loss of this beautiful soul still impacts my life. I have beautiful memories of our times together and there is a massive emptiness when our family finds time to come together. I'll forever cherish the memories I have of my dear, dear nephew. Time rushes by so quickly, but after all these years, it seems it was only yesterday when Troy was laughing with us. I know that I'm a better person for having known Troy Lamb. I thank God everyday for sharing him with us although it was for such a short while. Until we meet again Troy Lamb, you're forever in my heart.Tim Sledd (1996)
I knew Troy from pre-school on. While our paths diverged in high school, he was always a friend; someone who would help me whenever I needed it. I have weeped only a handful of times in my life, the first time my wife ever saw me cry was the moment I learned of Troy's death.
