So sorry to hear of Don's passing. I have many memories of him and Ron from school.  I was class of 63.  Always thought so well of both brothers and remember going to all the basketball games and cheering them on.  Both great guys!

My condolences to the Troxler Family on their loss. I will miss the conversations we had when you happened to be in town. If there was ever a person to emmulate their life after it would be you.

I find i am stumbling for words that properly express Don's impact on my future work.  I can not recall ever thinking of Don in the singular.  It was always Don & Ron or "the twins".  If you were not sure whether you were talking to Don or Ron, "Trox" would always work until you knew.  Now, regretably, I can be certain.  I will miss the challange. Don, thank you for walking this earth with us.  May you walk off it in peace.  Doug

It was a long, long time ago, but I remember as a child going to church in Ivoryton, CT with the Troxler family. My family lived in Knollwood Beach at the time.  My maiden name is Barbour.  Susan (Brooklyn, CT)

Elaine, I just learned of the passing of your brother, you and your family have my deepest sympathy.  God bless you all.

To the Troxler Family.......so sorry to hear about the loss of Donald.  Everyone who went to school in Old Saybrook knew of the "Troxler" twins and the Troxler family.  Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.  Wishing you God's comfort and love at this time.  Sincerest wishes and sympathy............Jennifer and James Brown, Branford, CT

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.
My Prays are with all of the family.

To the Troxler family,

Our thoughts and prayers go out to you in this very difficult time.
I attended school from kindergarten through graduation with Don and Ron. Barry went through with Joe.  We will always remember what a wonderful person Don was.
Fondly,
Barry and Judy(Olbrys|) Peterson

We are here to celebrate your life and to remember your wisdom and dedication to family.
I am flooded with memories of our childhood, growing up in Old Saybrook.  I remember the times at an early age that you and Ronald worked on Uncle Gibbs' “Pasadena Ranch” caring for the horses.    That was the beginning of the fine work ethics that you carried on into your adult life.
I recall the time that you moved to Michigan to work in the automotive industry.  It was a great time for me having my brother near.  
You were the benchmark for us in sports, playing baseball, soccer, basketball.  You always encouraged us to keep trying, saying “you will get better”.  That challenged us to be the very best.  We always had fun playing sports as a family.
You will be missed but never forgotten.  Love always!!

My deepest sympathy to the Troxler family,  My thoughts and prayers are with you.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Dear Troxler Family,
