Troy Marler

Troy Lance Marler of Bismarck, Missouri, was born on December 15, 1976 in Potosi, Missouri, a son of Clarence Lin Marler, and the late Geraldine Marie (Calahan) Marler. Troy passed away peacefully on Monday, August 14, 2023, having reached the age of 46.

Those who remain to cherish his memory include his father, Clarence Marler; siblings: Tina Calahan, Casandra Calahan-Gann, Rebecca Bencini (husband, Michael), Jerry Marler; and aunt, Mary Marler. Also surviving are special cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.

Troy was preceded in death by his mother, Geraldine "Gerry" Marler.

Troy was a huge wrestling fan—he lived and breathed it. It was his dream to become a professional wrestler. He was a big Walking Dead fan, loved animals, and loved people. It was always in his nature to be more concerned and caring about others than himself. He loved sports, and was considered a sports almanac—he knew everything about them.

Visitation will be Thursday, August 17, 2023, from 1pm until the time of his Funeral Service at 3pm, held at DeClue Funeral Home, 301 E High St, Potosi, MO 63664. Pastor Michael McGuire will officiate his service.
