I only met you the one time, Tyler, when I was visiting your mother. What I remember is that you were mowing the lawn, and Melissa was so proud to introduce me to her son, and I especially remember how obvious the love was between the two of you. I feel sure you won't be separated forever, and just as sure that you are with your grandma, my old friend, Lynn...

I am yet unable to fill out parts of this memorial Tyler. It hurts too much yet. Please know you are my every thought. Every heartbeat. Every year. I miss you in an inconsolable way. I need you my boy. I love you just doesn't seem like enough

It was a pleasure to know you and be part of your life.

I love you my boy. I miss you with every molecule in my being.

I lay a flower on the wind and hope it gets to you. I can't handle being apart. You took most of me with you. Be free Be Rad and Be Metal.
