To Tylers family I am so sorry for your loss,I’ve been following Tyler on facebook for a couple of months. I can’t even begin to imagine what you are going through. Tyler suffered alot at the end & it was hard to read the updates. You guys have been through so much & you were always by his side. I pray that you find peace knowing that Tyler is no longer in a bed attached to all kinds of tubes & machines. I will continue to pray for your family & I hope Dawson is doing ok. I will think of Tyler anytime I see the cars movie. May he rest in peace & may you both have peace. God blessed Tyler with great parents & god blessed you with 3 beautiful sons.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you. Tyler you fought a brave fight, we can all learn from your courage and strength. You will be missed by everyone who knew you and by all who followed your courageous battle. Be well little Tyler and wrap your angel wings around your family for strength and comfort.

I followedTyler on Caring Bridge as well as Facebook and was so sad when he passed.
