Trey had just signed up with John Casablancas in Chicago, Illinois just prior to his promotion with CVS. Trey found a certain satisfaction, as well, with his work at CVS Pharmacy in Warrior, Alabama, and even more so upon transferring to a CVS very near Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, where he was hitting all his marks, and achieving his goals of job promotion. He was recently promoted to Shift Supervisor at the Chicago store. His boss bragged on his work ethic. Trey had recommitted his life to Jesus a few months prior to moving to ‘The Windy City.’Trey was the guy who would lend a hand, a shoulder, and an ear. He was the guy who always had a smart-alec, or funny quip.As a child, through his adulthood, he was quick to give a hug, or draw close. As a child, he was our little snuggle bunny. As the young man that he became, he was a warm heart with open arms. As his parents and siblings have always said, since he was a baby, “He’s the best of all of us.” Truly, he really was the best of all of us. He loved his family and friends and will be sorely missed until we all meet again. Services will be held at New Horizon Funeral Home. Visitation Sunday, October 11, 2020 from 6-8pm. Funeral Service, Monday, October 12, 2020 beginning at 2pm with burial following at Phillips Chapel Cemetery. Online condolences can be made at www.newhorizonmemorial.com .
