Thread: Vale Troy Garner

  1. #1

    Unhappy Vale Troy Garner

    Regular contributors to this website will be stunned and dismayed to learn that Troy G sadly and suddenly passed away today. Troy was a learned, spirited, no holds barred lover of this site, a mad fan of the Swans and an institution in community radio and community sports reporting in Sydney. His passing will leave many of us the poorer as his great sense of humour and friendly banter will be greatly missed. RIP Troy, a short but full life.

    That is awful news
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    I am in shock, Troy was a regular contributor to RWO, giving great insight into the Sydney AFL scene.

    RIP

    Terrible news. I only have the capacity to comment on what I knew of him from here and his contributions will be sadly missed. Thanks for letting us know c-fox.

    That's not nice. That's not nice at all. Troy had some good humour. Atleast he witnessed a Swans Premiership.

    RIP all ze way!

    Troy was only 38. His family have been informed and his brother will be in Sydney tomorrow. It is likely that he will be returned to Queensland, the state he loved, especially during Rugby League State of Origin time where his passion to hate the blues was all too evident. A true sports lover and Queenslander.

    Would you let us know of arrangements so that RWO may either send flowers (if appropriate) or notes of condolence to Troys family.
