Sincere condolences to Walter and the beautiful family he and Maria gifted to the world. In return Maria was surrounded with the love, care and support of that wonderful family. You are an inspiration to many.

To each and every member of the Tyson Family:

Please know that Grace and I are so, so sorry for your loss. I understand that knowing that Mrs. Tyson is no longer suffering still does not take away the void left by losing a soul-mate, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.

Mrs. Tyson was always so sweet, loving and generous - and she will be sincerely missed by everyone who ever had the opportunity to meet her.

Grace & I have found some solace in knowing that she is joined with Rose & that they will continue to share their love for the family in whatever way is possible from paradise.
