Troy Dean Prater (September 28, 1958 - March 14, 1996) was a professional American football player who played defensive end for seven seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills. He is survived by his wife Barbara Prater who passed shortly after his death from cancer on July 26th, 1996, and his two daughter's Regan and Jessica Prater. His passing came as a shock to the entire family, to the sudden and distressing way he was found while relocating his wife and daughter's to upstate New York. He was en route from his former home in Denver, Pa., to Hamburg, a Buffalo suburb, where he had accepted a management job with Wal-Mart of Western New York. Authorities said Prater slipped in the bath tub, suffered a severe blow to the head and was knocked unconscious. His body apparently plugged the drain, causing the tub to fill with water. He most likely suffered from epilepsy, had a seizure and was knocked unconscious. His daughter has epilepsy .
