Troy Timothy Carter (Villiard), 27, passed away on February 26th, 2020, in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was born December 27th, 1992 in Salt Lake City, to Shelly Rose Villiard. Troy will always be remembered for his generous heart and giving nature. Troy had a way of always putting others first and ensuring there needs are taken care of always. Troy was always a free spirit who often played by his own rules and lived life on his own terms which formed the traits everyone admired about him. Troy was most recently on his own personal spiritual journey and had some very big plans for what his future was going to look like as he forged a new path in life. He was preceded in death by his sister Ameri Rose Villiard whom he absolutely adored, loved and cherished and relished his role as "Big Brother". We know that Troy's wish for everyone would be to not wallow in the misery of his passing but to celebrate his life and ensure you always seek personal happiness.

In a time as challenging as this, the love and support felt and given is overwhelming and words of appreciation don't seem to be enough.
