The family of Troy Carr is saddened to share the news that he has passed away, leaving a trail of accomplishments far beyond his years.  He grew up in Bridgewater, Vermont where he lived with his parents, Steve and Bonnie, and his older brother Aaron.  Following in the footsteps of their parents, he and Aaron attended Woodstock Union High School.  Troy became an accomplished snowboarder early on in Killington.  Following graduation from high school, he went to a Professional Golf school in California. From there, he travelled to Port Charlotte, Florida where he lived with his paternal grandparents, Pauline and Donald Carr.  He began teaching at Riverwood Golf Club in Port Charlotte.  While in Florida, he was hired by Mercury Boat Engines to test the mettle and endurance of Mercury's engines on the water. Troy then got certified as a Massage Therapist, giving him a complete understanding of the physiology of the human body.   In the meantime, he and his brother Aaron purchased adjoining acreage high atop one of Chittenden's mountains.  Before they lost their dad, they cleared the land and worked on completing Aaron and Amy's house and planned to build Troy and his previous wife Tatiana Dobush's home.  As it turned out, Troy ended up clearing his own land and overseeing the construction of his home.  After that, he and Tatiana purchased a home in Florida and they split their time between Vermont and Florida, along with their son Tucker Stephen Carr, who was born June 28, 2011.  Later on in his life, Troy moved back to his Vermont home full time.  The final occupation for Troy was the formation of his own company (he was "the Milfoil Man") to remove invasive milfoil from Lake Bomoseen, Fern Lake, and Lake Dunmore.  In order for him to accomplish the task, he had to become a certified scuba diver – which he did.  The company was eventually sold to a larger outfit, Lake Dunmore Fern Lake Association with Troy staying on as advisor of the Vermont operation.  Once Troy was living full-time in Vermont again, he met Stephanie Senecal who became his girlfriend, a close confidante, and someone who showed him kindness and understanding.  She also introduced her two children to Troy, and in time, Troy introduced Tucker to them.  He shared his love of snowmobiling, riding bikes, boating, and fishing with Tucker.  Troy had a lifelong love of animals that he shared with his son.  Tucker is now the caretaker of his dad's cats Miss Kitty and Cascious, who have joined Tucker and his mom's pets in Florida.

Troy is predeceased by his father, Stephen Paul Carr, his grandmother, Mary Birmingham, and his grandfather Donald Carr.  He is survived by his grandmother, Pauline Carr, mother Bonnie Carr, his significant other, Stephanie Senecal, his brother and sister-in-law, Aaron and Amy Carr, and his beloved son, Tucker and his mother.  He is also survived by his grandfather, aunts, uncles, and cousins.  Troy left innumerable friends from all walks of his life and will be remembered as a stand-up guy who usually accomplished all he set out to do.  He leaves a large void in his wake.

A graveside service for Troy will be held in the Mt Pleasant Cemetery in Bridgewater on June 8, 2024 beginning at 1:00pm.
