  2. CandleImageI will always remember Tyler’s smile. I have a precious photo of Kelsey and Tyler that I took one day after they played tennis when they were just kiddos.

    I can just see my Dad, Papa putting his
    arm around Tyler’s shoulders and welcoming him to heaven. ❤️

  4. CandleImageWe loved watching Tyler grow up with our boys! He always knew everything, or so he thought. One of my favorite memories is him telling my boys he had a playboy magazine at home. When he showed it to them it was a Victoria Secret catalog. Rest In Peace my sweet Tyler. Until we meet again.
