Troy, 26, was taken from us on 05/16/23 in a senseless act of gun violence. Losing him was completely unexpected, our family is shocked and deeply saddened.
Troy was born on June 23rd of 1996 to Troy Spruill and Leslie James in Williamsburg, Va. Troy was a loving father to a 7-year-old little girl, Aubrey. Aubrey loved and adored her father very much. They had a bond that even death will not sever.

Troy worked as a Retail Salesman at Joseph. A Banks. He loved what he did and loved to wear nice clothes as well as styled other people.
Anyone who knew Troy (munchie as we called him), knew that he was loving, passionate, ambitious, and had a great sense of humor. He loved to laugh and joke no matter what the situation. He had an immense passion for music and was always proud of any music he made. Troy's family and friends will miss him more than words can say. Aubrey will miss her father, but he will live on through her as he always felt she was his greatest accomplishment.

As our family mourns, we are asking for help with his final expenses. He did not have any life insurance or a living will. Due to his death being sudden, we were not prepared for the financial strain of Troy's memorial service. If you can find it in your heart to help our family, we would be forever grateful. We are praying for each other to heal in this despairing time. All contributions will be appreciated and will all go to taking care of his final expenses. We thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts and pray that you are blessed. Thank you for your donations, thoughts, and prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Ms. Tamara Latrice Fleming, 38 of Morganton, who departed this earthly life on Friday May 19, 2023 at Mission Hospital in Asheville, NC.


A memorial service celebrating the life of Ms. Tamara Latrice Fleming will be held Friday May 26, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. in the Corpening Memorial Chapel of McCain Funeral Home & Cremations, LLC; the family will receive friends thirty minutes prior to the service.
