💔 In Loving Memory of Trey 💔

It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of our beloved Trey. Trey wasn’t just an incredible coworker—he was family. His goofy humor, his one-of-a-kind personality, and his tireless work ethic touched everyone who knew him.

Trey had a way of making every day brighter, and his presence will be deeply missed. We are grateful for the joy he brought into our lives and the memories we’ll always carry with us.

In honor of Trey, donations can be made to help his family with memorial costs. Let’s come together to celebrate the life of someone who truly made a difference.

❤️ Rest in peace, Trey. You’ll always be remembered and forever missed.
