Troy Dixon 1981-2008
I'm sad to announce that Troy Dixon, who played "T-Bag" in my favorite show Pure Pwnage, has passed away on Saturday December 6th 2008 in a vehicle accident. This tragedy and has left me in total shock and heart broken.
The sad news was posted by Jarett Kale on the forums yesterday in this thread : http://forums.purepwnage.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=84495&view=findpost&p=1599693
"Although Troy has been doing stand-up comedy for very few years, he is quickly becoming a popular name in the clubs. He has performed well known venues such as Yuk Yuks, The Laugh Resort, Absolute Comedy, The Alt-Dot Comedy Lounge and many others. He has also showcased for Just For Laughs at the All-Black Comedy show. He has performed at various College campuses and private functions. Troy describes his style to somewhat of an "Eddie Murphy and Jim Carrey in a blender, minus the racial identity!" Aside from being an actor, and model, Troy is also a talented musician, and has been involved around it most of his life spreading the Trumpet, Piano, Drums. He is also a music producer, and hopes to crash the music world in the near future. Troy, a Humber College COMEDY program alumni, continues to perform at comic venues around North America."

You will be missed Troy. I thought you were a great addition to the Pure Pwnage show, and I enjoyed every minute of you. It's unfortunate that I never got to meet you at the premieres, and I would have loved to give you a big hug. May you Rest In Peace, and God Bless <3>
