He was born in Cabarrus County on October 25, 1948 to the late Andre and Ruby Walker Troutman.
Tommy was a Petty Officer in US Navy, having served two tours in Vietnam, aboard the USS Kitty Hawk, and aboard USS Enterprise the day of the explosion. He later worked as a senior field service technician, earning technician of the year, for Bank Tech.
He loved hunting, fishing, and spending time with his sons and grandchildren. He loved his family and friends, being at the beach, and he loved to cut up and have a good time. The memories created and the love shared will never be forgotten.
He was preceded in death by his sister, Martha “Mop” Moose. Left to cherish his memories are his loving wife, Sheila Troutman; sons, Brad Troutman (Christie) and Bryson Troutman (Paulette); grandchildren, Cameron Cole, Taylor Rae, and Kaleigh Rae Troutman and Matthew Stephen Griffin; a host of nieces and nephews; and his babies Maddie and Mazie.
