Troy Dean Tingey

Troy was born in Salt Lake City on February 18 1969. He passed away on October 14 2004 following surgery.
    Rolland and Leona adopted Troy and brought him home to complete their family. He graduated from East High School. His most recent job included work at the Garden Restaurant.
    Troy and I met each Monday night at The Trapp for Karaoke, where he always greeted me with his usual, “Hello, Darling.” Always a smile, no matter how bad the day. He loved singing and was good – Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, the classics.
    His personality and glow were his trademarks. He liked everyone – never a bad word. He always called me “Marvelous Marty.” I never knew why, that was just Troy. My final precious moment with Troy was on October 19. I said what I wanted. I love you darling, marvelous Troy.
    —Marty Pendry
