Troy Nelson Liddell
1965 - 2013
Condolences
Lon, Joan, Todd, Marty and chidren,
It was heartbreaking news to hear of what had happened to your family, the loss of Troy and Kelly are unquestionably hard to fathom! I can only hope that my condolences to and for you folks can assuage your pain and suffering in losing two very special people! In the days ahead we can lean on not only each other but also on the Lord, He and only He can and will be by our side to get through this unbearably difficult time in our lives! Although we may ask Him why He allowed this to happen to us, we have to remember His ways are not ours, that He has a plan and purpose for everyone and everything, we just have to place unquestionably our complete and total trust and unwavering faith in His Son Jesus to get us through each and every day He graciously gives to all of us. The many memories that I had with Troy in high school along with Todd in marching, pep and concert band are fond ones to say along with the tenor section for choir we were a part of are great memories that I cherish with many other friends / classmates - schoolmates! A song comes to mind that may be of help to us all-
you may or may not have heard of the Christian band - Building 429 - but they came out with this song ( earlier this year) and I believe it best fits the situation for us all in the coming days and weeks ahead, it's titled " We won't be shaken". It's very appropriate for us all- rest assured, believe in the Lord Jesus and He will have our back no matter what life can and will throw at us. We won't be shaken- our boat won't sink and the storm will pass - if Jesus is in our boat. Godspeed be with Troy and Kelly!
Any time Troy would see me he would say, "Hey Macumber" with that little smirk he had.
Heartbreaking news.
A lot of good memories coming over to the house while growing up. A lot of good pickup games in the yard with Troy, Todd and others.
My thoughts are with everyone touched by Troy.
Marty, Shawn and AJ, Lonnie and Joan, and Todd,
So many great memories. Growing up together with your family. A ton of memories growing up. Lonnie and Joan you probably felt like I was at your place more than my own. The Ford LTD wagon. Happy Guy. The time he spend down here. The golf and NCAA basketball trips. I let too much time pass without keeping in touch. I need not say it, but he will be truely missed.
Lonnie,Joan,Todd,Marty & children,
No words spoken at this time can ease the loss,pain, or lonliness you are experiencing at this time or for the months to come. The Holy Spirit will always be with you, lean on your faith and friends to keep going forward on this path we call life. I never had the chance to meet Marty or Kelly, but knowing the "boys" from my high school years, they had to be extra special women to share their lives.
I am a past good friend to both Todd and Troy. Part of the "band geek" squad from WLHS. Good memories... Troy... God got one heck of a drummer for his pearly gates and you will be able to play ball 24/7!!! Todd and Marty, you have guardian angels in heaven who truly love you and will be waiting to join you again when God chooses it to be time.
God bless us each and everyone, now and always.
Dear Marty, Margaret, Curt and families,
Troy was a friend in high school. We played football together, performed in the choir, and ran around together outside of school. He had a likable way about him. It was partly him wry sense of humor, his penchant for telling big stories and just being a good guy.
Unfortunately in life you lose touch with good people and Troy was one of the good ones. I haven't seen him in years and I miss him like it was yesterday.
My warmest regards and prayers for his family at this time.
Hope these will bring some comfort to all concerned.
Hopefully these will bring comfort to all concerned
Marty, boys and the rest of the Bowman and Liddell families,

Joan & Todd, We are sending our love and support to you and your families. I just read the obit today and it brought tears to my eyes. I had heard about the accident and just can't believe it! I don't know if you'll remember us, but we were the Nebergall kids that lived with our dad, and Lonnie Nebergall is my brother. He was in boyscouts with you all and we all just thought the world of your family and the support you gave. We hope Todd is o.k. or as o.k. as can be! We didn't know his wife but certainly remember Troy and Todd growing up. What nice guys they always were. We send our luv and prayers for you all! Remember all the good family times and the great memories. Thinking of you,
Lanett Nebergall Meyers Siefers & family
Marty,
I got to meet Troy @ Wayne and Kristy' s but didn't get to spend much time with him. It is very obvious Troy was a man of high character. Words won't bring Troy or Kelly back but for those really hard times the words of family and friends can provide comfort. Praying for all of you now and in the days ahead.
Dear Marty,
You are such a wonderful person with so much love to share, we are so saddened to hear about the loss of Troy and Kelly.
We are praying for you, your kids, and your entire family at this difficult time. If we can do anything for you please let us know.
I have know Troy for a long time. I used to watch him play football in High School and reconnected with him when I started at P&G. Troy and I worked closely together on some projects through the years. He was always helpful and willing to help get answers when i needed them. He was truely loved and admired here at the plant. I have attached a picture of our Dog Buddy that we got from you family 13 years ago. He left us earlier this summer but I will always be thankful of the memories. Your family hold a special place in my heart for your gift of such a wonderful dog. God bless you in your time of need.
Lonnie, Joan and the whole Liddell family:
Marty & family,
Troy and I went around selling advertising for the Comet seat cushions after football practice. This had to be back in 1981 when I was a freshman. This was a very hard year for me in high school and Troy was a good friend to me.
Marty & family,
Troy was our class President in 1983 at West Liberty High School. I had the pleasure of growing up with Troy since elementary school, and have wonderful memories of him as a classmate. He always made me laugh and had a kind word for everyone. He will be dearly missed. My family sends our deepest condolences to you and asks that the Lord continue to be with you and give you strength as He holds Troy close to him.
We are very saddened by the loss of your family member. We are so sorry for your loss. May God wrap Himself around you and help you through your grief.
My heart goes out to the Liddell family. I wish to extend my condolances regarding the loss of your loved ones. You're in my thoughts & prayers, Diane Fritts
Dear Marty, Margaret, Shawn and AJ and all of the Liddell family, we wish to extend our deepest sympathy to all of you at this sad time. We hope to connect with you later as we are unable to be at the service. Our thoughts and prayers will be with all of you there and in the days ahead.. Bernie and Cherie
My condolences to the entire Liddell family. It's been years since I've seen Troy or Todd, but we spent much time together in our youth, both as part of Boy Scout Troop 141, and as part of the Covenant Singers (not to mention school, etc.). Troy was always mixing things up like a little brother should, and I could usually count on him for a wry comment or a cheap laugh. He was a great Scout, and a fantastic drummer! I have to admit that his picture just doesn't look right to me, as he only looked normal to me when he was wearing a cap. For what it's worth, I've begun to tell my kids the stories (only some, as there are a few that should remain untold!) about my adventures with Todd and Troy, and we've been going over the high school yearbook pictures as well. Rest assured that Troy's memory will remain alive with the Baier clan.
Blessings to all, and you will remain in our prayers.
So very sorry for your loss! I didn't know troy that much , he was in a grade under me . I was a classmate of his brother Todd . this just breaks my heart to hear the loss of both family members ! my thoughts and prayers go out to both families . may God wrap his loving arms around you all and help ease your pain . lean on each other to help you get through this terrible tragedy . take care all and may God be with you all !
Marty and Family,
Marty, Shawn, and AJ-
Dear Marty, Margaret, Curt, Amy and boys ~ I just wanted to express my deepest sympathies to you. You have all been in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be. I am so very, very sorry for your loss. Melissa and Ben
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Always good memories abound. God Bless you all. jenny roberts
Thoughts and Prayers sre with you.
I have known Troy my whole life. We grew up together. I lived right down the road from the Liddell's and spent almost every day there.
We don't really know your family, but are Wayne's parents, and want to assure you we are holding your family up in prayer. Ken & Phyllis Heffner
I had the awesome privilege of working with Troy at the Iowa City plant for 10 years. He was one of the friendliest people I met at that plant, and I will always cherish the memories of working with him. I have and will always consider Troy to be my friend.
Marty, AJ and Shawn,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know Troy will be looking down from Heaven on you and he will live in your hearts forever. I know that you have a wonderful family to help you through this. My thoughts are full of sorrow for you and I pray you will find the strength to get through this.
Christa White
Our family at Buena Vista University has each of you in our thoughts and prayers as you grieve and heal following the passing of Troy as well as your aunt. His inspiring message to the parents of incoming students this past summer at the BV campus offered a rich glimpse of his character and spirit. We could all tell he was so proud of his family and loved each of you. We pray the outreach of hands and hearts to you is a glimpse of God's unconditional love that will not let you go. Christ's peace to you.
Marty and family-So sorry to hear of this tragedy, I know the neighbors kept saying the house on the corner across from your old home place, but did not know your last name. Hope time heals along with your memories. Prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
Marty, Shawn, and AJ,
My family and I are so terribly sorry for your loss for your husband and father, I am praying for all of you as you suffer this great loss. Shawn, Caleb asked me to tell you he is sorry for your loss, He cant imangine what you must be going thru, he is thinking of you.
I pray you are surrounded by many friends and family for as long as you need them.
Our deepest sympathy,
The Reihmann family,
Eric, Marsha, Caleb, Adam, and Miranda
Marty, Shawn, & AJ-
Please know how very saddened I am for your loss. I send my deepest condolences for you and for your family. I can't imagine how painful it is for you but don't forget that your family and friends will always be there to console you. Having lost someone is a difficult moment of life. May God provide you the strength you need to cope with this difficult situation.
I worked with Troy for many years and he was an awesome person to work with. He was just an all around great person, sure am going to miss him.
My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. May Troy rest in peace.
Performing with Troy in the Livewire days will always be some of my fondest memories.
He was a good friend who will be truly missed.vqnp
My thoughts and prayers are with the Liddell family.
To Marty, AJ, and Sean:
I am so very deeply sorry for your loss. Troy was a great man and I was lucky enough to get to know him thru umpiring the boys' games for numerous years in Amana and Tiffin. He was a true pleasure to work for and simply be around. His smile was infectious and his sense of humor made it hard to be angry with him(on the diamond at least). He will be missed and your family will be in our families' thoughts and prayers. May you find an ounce of comfort in all of the lives he touched throughout the years.
Marty, Shawn & AJ -
Troy, you were taken too soon my friend. Marty, Todd, and families, you have my prayers, and I am at your service. Here's to one of the best drummers I ever shared a stage with...
Dear Marty and family as well as Margaret Bowman and Curtis Bowman and family. There are no words that could possibly comfort. I just wish there was a magic pill that could bring your loved one back to you. They say God takes only the very Best, but why can't we have our loved ones longer. I know the Bowman family had already lost their father/husband/grandfather - Jim Bowman a few years back. That in itself - was a huge heartache for the Bowman family. I love you guys. Take care of each other now and in the years to come....... Dianna (Brant) Brack, Tony and Kristin Brack.
Liddell Family,
I worked with Troy on a number of projects. He was an outstanding professional and yet a real down to earth guy. He was top shelf in every way. He will be sorely missed.
Went to school with Troy. Met him in Thespians, and even though I was the new guy, he didn't pick on me or treat me bad. Always had a smile and a great sense of humor. My heart goes out to the entire family. Prayers and positive vibes are sent your way!
I was in the band LiveWire with Troy for several years, and would see him from time to time after that in the Iowa City area. He was a good friend and I have a lot of great memories from that time. Troy was the only drummer I knew that broke the head on the bass drum! Also fun memories of practicing in the trailer by his parents' house in West Liberty.
Have good memories of Troy and his family here in West Liberty with the church and the Boy Scouts. You all are missed here. You are in my thoughts through this difficult time and I will keep you in my prayers.
