Obituary For Mr. Troy Alston

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Troy Alston on January 22, 2025, at the age of 53. Troy was born in Newark New Jersey at Saint Michaels hospital on Wednesday, June 16, 1971 to Charmain Alston (Duncan) and Curtis Sinclair. He received his rebirth at the Church of Jesus Christ in Charlotte, NC in 2005 by water baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Troy attended public school in Charlotte and Belmont, NC and he had a long career in food services spending the last decade or more at HMS Host as a manager and recruiter.

Troy was the middle child in more ways than one with a natural instinct to be a peacemaker. He was always able to avoid confrontation and had an innate ability to bring very challenging personalities together whether he was telling a joke or offering support.

Troy loved sports and as a child played football and also played basketball at the park with his friends and with his beloved sons Desmond and Jalen.

Survived by: his Mother Charmain (Willie Duncan)

sons Desmond Alston and Jalen Alston (Angela Alston)

siblings Catesha Renay Alston (Keith Lattimore), Tommy Jermaine Wilson, Stacy Sinclair, Carolyn Robbins, and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, blood brothers, and friends.

Preceded in joining the Lord: grandmother Cora Alston, uncle Frank Alston, father Curtis Sinclair, sister Brenda Sinclair, aunt Gladys Sinclair.
