Tyler's attitude was contagious on the golf course. I was the assistant coach on the Cactus team and in a sport where so many people get frustrated, angry, and difficult to play with, I always looked forward to hitting a few with him. I can't think of many times where the smile ever left him. I was very sorry to hear of his passing and I send sincere condolences to the family.

I loved Tyler. I was able to do quite a few things with him. The most memorable was our day together in Vegas. Being asked by a Chinese cab driver if we wanted a free ride to a strip club... Being chased down by the black guy because I walked off with his CD. We had a lot of good times, and I always will miss him. He was an amazing kid... My heart goes out to all that were affected by his loss. He will always be remembered. No doubt about it...

Oh Ty,,, I am going to miss you dearly... All the fun we had goofing off at the trucks. My ongoing efforts to jump out and scare you. Although, I knew you always saw me. Work won't be the same without you. Who the heck am I supposed to watch Python Hunters with??? I know you'll be watching too. I won't say goodbye but I will see you later kiddo.
