Support Troy Glover's Medical & Funeral Expenses

Dear friends, family, and compassionate individuals,

We gather here today with heavy hearts to honor the memory of our dear friend, Troy Glover. Troy's sudden passing on July 9th has left a void in our lives that can never be filled. As we reflect on his remarkable journey, we aim to support his family during this difficult time and ensure a brighter future for his 13-year-old daughter, Malia Grace.

Troy's Story: Last year, on February 7th, Troy suffered a stroke that left him physically disabled. Despite this life-altering event, Troy's spirit remained unbroken, and he continued to radiate kindness and help others selflessly. Unfortunately, his health struggles persisted, and on July 5th, he suffered a hypertensive brain bleed that led to cardiac arrest, ultimately claiming his life. Throughout his journey, Troy faced numerous medical expenses, and without any health insurance or a stable income for the past year and a half, the financial burden on his family has been overwhelming.

Here is my best attempt to honor my friend Troy:

Troy's Inspiring Journey: Born in Mississippi and raised in Mississippi and Ohio, Troy's love for football was evident from an early age.

In addition to his fashion sense, Troy was deeply passionate about fitness. He recognized the importance of taking care of his physical and mental well-being. His commitment to staying fit and active inspired those around him to lead healthier lifestyles.

Troy's Transition to Nashville: Seeking new opportunities and embracing his adventurous spirit, Troy relocated to Nashville, where he immersed himself in the vibrant community. He found fulfillment in various roles, including construction, working in bars, and the food and beverage industry in downtown Nashville. Additionally, he lent his strength and skills to warehouse work, demonstrating his resilience and adaptability.
