Toni/family and the Matz family, my heart is broken for at this time please know I am here for you always and forever.  Love you all!  Love Jay and Paula. 

Some people are like shooting stars in life, beautiful and once seen and experienced, even for a very short time are never forgotten! Tyler you are a shooting star. Love Ted and Stacey

Tyler's light and energy leaps from every image. What an electric smile he had. I didn't have the pleasure to know him personally, my daughter did. I honor his life and memory with each word shared about him. 

Prayers and healing energy sent to Tyler's Family and Friends.

Wish I had known Tyler better than I did. He was a gorgeously beautiful baby. Every time I visited, always found him to be a sweet and loving little boy. Always impressed by how much he and his big brothers loved and appreciated each other. Once, when visiting and I admired some of Tyler's art work, he went over to a TV screen, sat down and perfectly drew a picture of a character he was looking at on piece of paper and wrote on the top of it "To Grandma D". It has been under a glass on the top of an end table in my living room ever since. One of my special treasures.

Tyler had such a beautiful soul. He will be missed so much and was loved by so many. I remember visiting my brother and Karen when Tyler was little boy and he was wearing his Spider Man costume wanting to save us all. You will always be in our hearts.

I never got the time to know you like I wanted. I know your mom, and I know how I feel as a mom. The pain you left behind will never go away. The loss of your voice, your laugh and your smile can never be replaced. If I could tell you anything, I would tell not to go, I would beg and plead with all that I am. I would willing give my life in your place. I would have been honored to take your place. You were so young and had a beautiful life before you. Know you were loved and you touched lives in ways you were never aware of. Be at peace, I love you.

I met Tyler on a trip to Flaming Gorge with some close friends when he was about 4 years old and he was glued to my side the entire weekend. His laugh and smile were contagious and I’ll never forget him serenading me with the lyrics to “Cheese Burger in Paradise” and referring to me as “his girlfriend”. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing and my thought are with his family at this time.

Tyler, my sweet nephew, provided joy to everyone he came into contact with; adults, children, family, and strangers.  His gentle approach to others was a unique aspect of his personality.  I am so thankful that many hours of my life were spent listening to him giggle with his brothers and his cousins. Memories of these moments make my heart warm! Tyler was an adorable infant and very happy to be a part of the “big dogs” hanging with his brothers. As Tyler grew to be a young adult, and boy did he grow, he was taller than his brothers and his cousins and always held his head high knowing he was the tallest of them all. He had the most gentle and sweet soul. I will miss his wonderful snuggly hugs, contagious laugh, and forever cherish them in my heart!  Love your Aunt Sissy

Tyler, gosh I wish we had more time together. You were always a so joyful, and a pure ray of happiness whenever we were together. Even with our age and location difference you shared so much love with your cousins and made everyone feel welcome. Tyler, I will think of you when we smile because yours was always the brightest in the room. I love and miss you.

For years, Tyler was either at my house, or my son Will, was at the Daugherty house. Most of the time Tyler easily convinced Will to go to his house where the close knit Daugherty brothers provided constant entertainment. Even at a young age Tyler was considerate and thoughtful and always made sure that my son Will was included in the group fun. When at my house, Tyler’s favourite place to be was sitting at my counter enjoying a grilled cheese sandwich! He would shyly ask me if lunch could be grilled cheese, again. 
Tyler’s infectious smile and quiet demeanour will be remembered in our hearts forever.

We first met the Daugherty family when they moved to Lexington MA. One of the first things that was so clear to us was what a close knit family they were. The brothers had an incredibly close bond with each other. This was on full display when we enjoyed a Christmas ski trip to Loon Mountain in NH. The boys love to kid with each other and there is a genuine affection between them. Tyler you will be forever missed and never forgotten.
May you Rest In Peace sweet boy ❤️

What amazing and heartbreaking pictures. So much happiness. I miss Tyler and I didn’t even know him. What a beautiful soul.

Tyler is a unique soul. Kind, sweet, caring and gregarious. I remember walking with him around the block (at Grandma & Papa's house) when he was 3 or 4 years old and him stopping to talk to neighbors in the yard. He didn't know them, was just saying 'hi' and being his open, friendly and outgoing self. I loved taking him trick-or-treating! He would fill his pumpkin with his two favorite stuffed animals, wanting to take them along. I asked him where was he going to put his candy. There was another pumpkin and he handed it to me and said, "You carry it." He paid attention to the all the decorations as we approached a house. It would take several minutes before making it to the door because he was commenting on what he was seeing. So adorable! When he got a little older I took him hiking. Tyler was always ready for an adventure. He loved being read to, especially when Papa told his 'true' bedtime stories. Even as a little boy, he would listen attentively when adults spoke to him. He was curious of the world about him. He could hold a tune even as a young child and really enjoyed singing. Tyler--Preshi boy--my sweet, kind big-hearted nephew. My life has been blessed because of the precious time I had with you. You will forever be in my heart as I will think of you every single day; my life walk having forever changed without your presence. Forever love, hugs, and kisses! Aunt Sammy

Tyler lit up a room, he was so kind. He loved to sing. He was an artist, he drew pictures for us and painted us a birdhouse. He would play cards with us every night we were with him. We watched movies together and had lots of sleepovers. He would eat crepes with tons of powdered sugar and he loved Colosimo's Sauage. Our time with him was very special and we will treasure every minute we had with him. It is a pleasure to have such a beautiful grandson in our family. Love you forever, Grandma and Papa
