John George Troy was born in Sioux City, Iowa on September 8, 1925. He attended East High School from 1940-1943, whereupon he served in the U.S. Navy from 1943-1946. After his service in the Navy, Troy worked for Cudahy Packing Company until 1950, whereupon he transferred to the firm Willis Regier, Architect where he worked until 1954. In 1954, Troy worked for the firm Cecil A. Martin & Associates for one year until he started his own firm, John G. Troy, until 1956. It was then that Troy accepted a partner into his firm, and it became Troy & Stalder. In his personal life, Troy married in 1948, and had one child. His foreign travel primarily included Mexico and Canada.[2][3][4] The AIA was notified of Troy’s decease in October of 2001.[1]
