Loyd Joseph Troy, Killeen, TX— Loyd Joseph Troy passed away peacefully at his home on September 22, 2024, surrounded by family and friends. His passing has left a profound impact on those who knew him.
Loyd was a distinguished veteran, having served honorably in both the United States Marine Corps and the United States Army. His military career included significant engagements such as Operation Desert Storm and Operation Just Cause, culminating in his retirement as a Staff Sergeant in 1994. He was recognized for his service with numerous honors, including the Meritorious Service Medal and four Army Commendation Medals.
Beyond his military achievements, Loyd was a dedicated family man. He is survived by his beloved wife, Josephine, and their four children, along with six cherished grandchildren. Loyd’s love for family was evident in his enjoyment of fishing, gardening, and attending family events, especially those of his grandchildren.
A fundraiser organized by Stephen Lester, titled "Honoring the Memory of Loyd Troy," has been initiated to support his family during this difficult time. The goal is set at $5,500, and contributions are welcomed to assist with expenses.
Visitation services will be held at Crawford-Bowers Funeral Home in Killeen on October 2, 2024, followed by a special mass at Holy Family Catholic Church in Copperas Cove on October 3, 2024. Loyd will be laid to rest with Full Military Honors at Central Texas Veterans Cemetery later that day.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Loyd Joseph Troy’s family as they navigate this difficult period of loss.
