Support the Family of Troy Grogan

The Rick's Fencing and Decking family suffered a huge loss in June. Troy Grogan was a Crew Production Manager at Hillsboro in his 7th year with the company. His contributions were widespread, not only helping with tricky builds or customers, but mentoring many of the great builders that make up that store. Even more than that though, he was a good friend to all who worked with him and that store will not be the same without his positive attitude and infectious smile.

We are setting this fund up on behalf of Troy's family and it is only to be shared with employees within the company to help support the two children, 14 and 16, that he left behind. Stephanie Grogan, Troy's wife, would not like this shared publicly so please respect the families wishes and keep this within the company.

Quotes from the employees and managers that worked with him:

"When I was on crew, Troy would be reviewing jobs in the morning, and the ones that were going to be the biggest pain he would always say 'It's a piece of cake'. That's when we knew it was going to be a tough one, but that was Troy, always positive.

He had the biggest heart and was taken way too soon."

- Dillon, Crew & Sales

"Troy was possibly one of the most even keeled guy’s I’ve ever met. He would get back to the store after checking on a crew, and his response was always the same “It’s good, going great”. No matter the situation he was never rattled. He believed in his guys, and knew they could handle it. His temperament and willingness to do for others touched a lot of people here. Troy was a mentor to many young builders, and will be missed deeply personally and professionally."

- Joe, Hillsboro Store Manager

"Whenever I had a tricky job or customer, I knew I could call Troy whether it was morning, evening, or a weekend. He'd always take me call and we'd chat about life for a bit before we got down to business, then he'd bail me out with his help.

We were lucky to have a guy like Troy."

- Nick, GM

"When Troy would get back from the job site, we would ask how the crews were doing, and it would always be 'they are doing great'. Nothing about this or that being wrong. Just they are doing great."

- Steve, CPM

"Troy was like family to me. He was always there for me when I needed him at work and outside of work. One of the kindest people I've had the pleasure of knowing."

- Eric, Friend & Crew, Hillsboro
