My deepest sympathy goes out to your family. I worked with Tyree at Lake Book for about 10 years. He was one of the sweetest and most helpful people that I could have worked with. What a kind human being he was and I will never forget his helpful, kind spirit. May you rest in peace Tyree. I know you are in heaven.
