We are heart broken at the loss of our beloved brother, Robert Patrick “Bobby” Troy. Bobby passed
away peacefully on April 2, 2025 in his sleep from an apparent heart issue.
Bobby was born October 5, 1960 in Ithaca, NY to William and Shirley Troy. Bobby was the sixth of eight
siblings. Bobby lived his entire life in Ithaca. He attended Ithaca Schools.
Bobby participated in many sports leagues, including softball and bowling. He was a very active member
of the Moose Club, serving as a past president. He was also a member of the Eagles Club. For years
Bobby participated in the Ithaca Fire Department Volunteer Company and held the position of secretary
and treasurer.
Bobby worked at Morse Chain, the Ithaca City School District, Cayuga Medical Center and Cornell
University. He had only retired from Cornell over a year ago.
Bobby was very out going and enjoyed talking with everyone. He loved our family Sunday dinners and
so many other celebrations!
Bobby took special care of our mom in her final years. He will be missed dearly by family and friends.
His smile was quick and he was a very loving brother.
Bobby is survived by his siblings: Anne Barnes (Dave), Mary Bordoni (Tom), Charlene Troy (Chuck), James
Troy (Kelly), Teresa Troy and Lucy Ferrara (Frank) and several nieces, nephews, grand nieces and grand
nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents and his older brother, Bill.
Arrangements to memorialize Bobby will be with his family at a later date. Arrangements are entrusted
to Bangs Funeral Home, Ithaca, NY.
