Troy also served as a Volunteer Firefighter at the Dunn Loring Fire Station, Fairfax, Virginia, in the 1990s, where he received multiple awards for Volunteer Firefighter of the Year. Firefighting was another profession he loved and was so proud to have served.

Troy enjoyed a long, successful 26 year career at Navy Federal. He was a calm, steady presence throughout his tenure, both as a leader and an individual contributor. Troy was often recognized with department and enterprise level awards based on his steadfast dedication to, and personification of, Navy Federal's guiding principles, system knowledge, and outstanding customer service. He inspired a high standard of contribution to those around him based on his tremendous work ethic and strong sense of self. Troy was a servant leader; he invested in people and strived to position those around him for success in a variety of roles throughout his career. He was a charitable, talented leader who found time to support his community in many ways including several years as a volunteer firefighter. More than anything else, Troy was guided by his passion for serving our business partners and members. Any decision, any effort, and all tasks were always focused on support of our members.

He will be forever missed by his Navy Federal Family.
