Troop loved to ride his Harley-Davidson, doing so up until a year ago. He was a member of the Sons of Satan, MC for 44 years and participated in memorial rides and benefit rides, including the annual Frosty Balls and Frozen Suzies, which directly benefits the Lebanon VA Medical Center.
He was a member of the Germania Band Club of Manheim, the Elstonville Sportsmen’s Assn, the Del-Ches Fishing Assn, and a lifetime member of the Lititz American Legion Post 56. He was an avid fisherman and hunter and loved to spend time with his grandchildren.
Troop is survived by his daughters: Christal L. Rosbach of Manheim and Theresa L. Rosbach of Elizabethtown; his 6 grandchildren: Aiyana, Gavin, Olivia, Sophia, Nika, and Kayla; his sisters: Esther Rubia of Manheim and Alberta Pensinger of Shippensburg; a niece Dianna Rubia and 2 nephews Barry Rubia and Mike Rosbach. He is also survived by his ex-wife, close friend, and mother of his children, Doris Kline, of Lititz.
