Dear Motzny Family,



I have so many memories of Trevor. Originally from Ed, who I worked with until the time I actually met Trevor.



How I would yell at him for calling, Ed, the old man.



About a month ago Trevor and I had a very lenghty conversation about angels. I guess now we all have a very special angel to watch over all of us.



Trevor you will be missed deeply by friends and family alike.

I consider myself priveledged to have been able to call Trevor my good friend.

He was always there to lend an ear, or even a shoulder, and he was always there for a smile or a laugh. Trevor will not be forgotten and the void he has left will never be filled. I will miss him very much.

I have had the pleasure of working with and becoming friends with Trevor over the past 6 years. He brought me under his wing in the bicycle industry - going beyond what I ever imagined. Over the last few days, I have spoken to multiple people in the industry/customers/friends who had nothing but concerning and caring words about Trevor. This was a great loss to his family, friends, industry and me. My heart aches for the loss that his family has had. He will be deeply missed.

Dear Ed and Family-

The world dropped from under my feet when I was told that Trevor had passed last weekend.

Words cannot be found to express how it affected me that day on my mail route. It reminds me how fragile life really is and that God never promised us a tomorrow. We need to live everyday to the fullest.

My prayer for you is that your hearts will be healed of the sadness and be replaced with only loving memories of Trevor. I know I'll miss seeing his smiling face and friendly ways.



Sincerely,

Terry

Trevor was not just a customer at my bar, not just a fellow pool league shooter, but was a good and dear friend to me. We had many laughs over many nights together. Not to mention some incredible backgammon games. I wlll sorely miss Trevor, and never forget him for as long as I live. My deepest sympathy goes out to all his family and friends. Most of whom I've had the pleasure of knowing. I know we have all lost a part of us.

Donna,



Did not know your son Trevor but knowing you, I know that he must have been a caring, giving, fun person just like his mommy is. God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
