Troyce was a co-owner of Bagley Farms in Merkel, with his father and brother, where he spent many long hours working, planting, or harvesting. Troyce met the love of his life, Lauren Schoonover, in Abilene, where they were later married in May of 2017.  In February of 2019 they were blessed with twin boys. Troyce was a hard worker, but in any spare time, he could be found with his wife, and twin boys working around their property together, or enjoying time at the lake house.
