Those left to honor his memory include his daughter, Michele Stroyan; grandchildren, Aubrey Marshall and Jacob Stroyan; niece Peggi Roberts and many other family members.
He was preceded in death by his parents, wife, Judy and siblings, Judith, Patricia, Bob, Terry, Eleanor, Frank, Bill, Merrie Sue, Bonnie and an infant sister.
