Troy Register

Troy A. Register was born on September 4, 1956, in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, to Wanda Lee (Roberson) Harrell. He passed from this life on July 23, 2021, at the age of 64. Troy married the love of his life, Cindy Ann (Cannon) Register, on October 30, 1981, in Gainesville, Texas. Lindsay, Oklahoma, was the only home Troy knew during his lifetime. It was in Lindsay that his dad, Bud Harrell, taught him a strong work ethic that resonated with him in everything he did. After graduating from Lindsay High School in 1975, he attended Spartan School of Aeronautics and Technology, where he obtained his private pilot’s license. But it was when he was introduced to the oilfield by his good friend Cecil Jones, that Troy started what would become a lifelong career. He started out as a green hand and worked his way up the rungs to tool pusher and superintendent, beginning at TRG (Grace) Nabors and ending at Cactus Drilling. Troy always had to dress for success and had a need for speed, whether that was driving, flying, riding motorcycles, or later speeding through the hospital in his electric wheelchair. He liked to hunt and fish, but the activity he enjoyed most was playing baseball with his kids and grandkids. Left to cherish Troy’s memory is his wife, Cindy Register; father, Lonnie "Bud" Harrell; daughter, Charity and husband Troy Eplin; sons, Pete and wife Tanillia Register and Zach and wife Courtney Register; brother, Ronnie Harrell; sisters, Debbie Register and Karren Kuykendall; brother-in-law, Toby Cannon; grandchildren, Jace and Taylor Eplin, Riley Eplin, Brenna Eplin, Paizley Howard, Adyson Register, Kyndal Register, and Harper Register; great grandchildren, Paris Eplin, Brantley Eplin, and Hazel Eplin; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews. Troy is preceded in death by his mother, Wanda Lee Harrell; grandparents, Euell and Lucille Roberson and Clarence and Lessie Register; sister, Sharren Harrell; father-in-law and mother-in-law, J.C. and Juanita Cannon; brothers in-law, Tommy Kuykendall and Cecil Cannon; and sister-in-law Wilma Stephenson. A funeral service to honor the life of Troy is set to begin at 10:00 A.M. on Saturday, July 31, 2021, at the Erin Springs Baptist church located in Erin Springs, Oklahoma. He will be laid to rest following the service at the Green Hill Cemetery in Lindsay, Oklahoma.
