Alvin Simeon Trotman

February 17, 1941 - October 12, 2015

Alvin S. Trotman aged 74 passed away on October 12th, 2015 in the presence of his wife and a good friend at St. Thomas West Hospital Nashville TN. Alvin was born on February 17th 1941 to Anderson Cipriani and Melvina Trotman.  Alvin carried his winning smile of love and cheer thru everything he faced and conquered while here with us. I always thought that God had a sense of humor to give Alvin the art of giving light to this world thru his work when he gave so much light and love thru his smile. I met Alvin February 12, 1981 and we forged a great relationship from the get go. For five years he asked me to marry him and finally in 1986 we were married and what a wonderful journey.  I wish I had married him the first year.  Most of all I got to know the most AWESOME man that ever lived – my confidant, supporter, lover, husband and my very best friend. Alvin never met a stranger. He just loved people, never hurt anyone, gave what he can when he could, and would never say a bad thing about anyone.  He was loved by everyone. Alvin loved to bowl and fish. I know he was happiest when he was bowling, fishing, or helping someone out.  He even won the best sportsman award two years in a row from one of our leagues. Alvin leaves to mourn his passing his wife Juliana, daughter Sharon, two grandsons Dave and Ricardo, two brothers Leon and Michael, five sisters Shirley, Veronica, Annette, Lynette and Cecilia, and several nieces and nephews.  Please join us in celebration of Alvin’s life on October 24th 2015 at Cornerstone Church, 726 W. Old Hickory Blvd., Madison, TN 37115. Visitation begins at 1:00 PM and ends at 3:00 PM. Service begins immediately following visitation.

    That picture must have been taken of Alvin in Heaven. It is a beautiful way to remember him. Alvin was a man who brought a light so great to the world that even after he has gone, the light remains.

    To Dad,
    From your daughter Sharon; I am sorry that I cannot make it to your funeral but you are in my prayers daily. I could never say goodbye to you. You are with us in spirit. We could not see everything on the same level but we understood each other. We are both stubborn alike. I love you Dad. I know you are with the angels in heaven. May god rest your soul in peace.
    To everyone who knew Dad
    Do not weep too much. I am sure he would have liked everyone to be laughing as he was always doing. Remember we are left to carry on his legacy of love and joy in our souls.
    God bless you all,
    Love Sharon
