In Honor of Troy “TJ” Maurice Davis, Jr.
We are extremely sad to announce the unexpected passing of Troy Maurice Davis Jr., “TJ”.
TJ was the beloved son of our friend and coworker, Shasmay Davenport. TJ was a sixteen year old student in his sophomore year of high school. He was excited to learn how to drive a car and he had been exploring options and opportunities to pursue a college education. He also loved sports and he played football and ran track.
TJ was a loving son and brother. He was very close with his mother Shasmay and his older sister Morgan Bond. They frequently went on trips together and they loved to watch movies and shows on Netflix. TJ also loved his two pets- Yeezy, a mixed breed rescue dog, and Panda his guinea pig.
TJ was a wonderful young man who was a kind, caring, and giving person. He volunteered at Highmark Health Options numerous times and he was always happy to lend a hand to help others. It was always a pleasure to be in TJ’s company. He had a beautiful smile and gentle personality that could light up a room and brighten the day. TJ will be greatly missed by his dear family, friends, school peers, and all who knew him.
This GoFundMe campaign is to support Shasmay and TJ’s family with establishing a scholarship fund in memorial and honor of TJ’s life. It’s hoped that this scholarship will be used to empower young people to pursue their career dreams just as TJ had aspired for himself.
In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to this fundraiser. No contribution is too small because all contributions are greatly appreciated!
Please offer prayers and positive thoughts to TJ and his family during this time of grief and loss. We pray that TJ rests in eternal peace and guides us forward as our guardian angel.
