My Sweet Brother Tige. We celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, with you in our hearts and most definitely on our minds. It was the year anniversary of your passing. We all miss you so much. We celebrated you with our memories and stories of how full of life you were and how you truly lived each day so incredibly. I still keep expecting to hear your voice on the other end of the phone or see you walk through my door as you did so many times. I'm pretty sure that feeling will never go away as we were such a big part of one another. I couldn't possibly imagine the world with out you in it. I'll never be able to, I hold you dearly in my heart. I think of you often each day. Seraphine was here for dinner last night. I know you are so very proud of the young lady she is becoming and getting a good laugh at how hysterically crazy she drives Amber with her goofiness, just like her Daddy. :) Rhyder is getting so big, he is always looking for you to come home. It is hard for Krystal to see him miss you so. It is hard for all of us. We miss you Tige, you made such a huge impact on all of our lives. Reese is grooming dogs 'n cats now. He wants so very much to continue on with your work, and how talented you were. His biggest goal is to make his uncle proud. Reese adores you Tige. Ryan came out with me yesterday to the cemetery to visit with you. He, as with many of your dear friends misses you terribly.
I will always feel that you left us far too early, but I take great comfort in knowing that you are watching over us. I love you Tige.

Tige you were an amzazing dancer and definitely one of a kind. I am sad to hear of your passing. Hopefully there is a grip of volkswagons and good beats up there in heaven for you to enjoy!

Hello I just wanted to first offer my deepest condolences. My name is Emily and I meet Tige about four or 5 years ago on the board walk in Santa Monica. He was with his lady catcher :) mouse ( the blue pit) and there I was ohhhing and ahhhing over the dog when the dog takes a big dump :) and he doesn’t have a bag to pick it up with so asks me to run into a store and get one, from there he asked me if I wanted a soda and a friendship started. We spent many a nights at that dumpy little apartment on whitsitt talking about art or whatever while his roommate would be snoring so loud in the other room wed wonder why no one had thrown a rock at his window yet. Just like Tige did, I also have a passion for art. One night we were talking about his baby girl and how she was his absolute world and how he was missing her so very much that night then all the sudden I remembered I had this little white girl shoes in my car ( I was a nanny and bought them for the little girl I nannyed but they didn’t fit her :) ) and we came up with this idea for customize the shoes writing her name Seraphine in different colored sharpies, it’s the little moment like that, that I’ll always cherish we had that kind of friendship that we didn’t need to talk or see each other forever but were able to pick up right where we left off. He loved his family so much and any excuse to talk about you guys he did, especially Seraphine he was and still is so very proud of you. I remember when he was moving to the Hollywood place he was so excited you were going to have your very own room I remember him telling me how he couldn’t decide if he should get a baby monitor in your room just incase you were the least bit scared so he could come running in. His passing was such a shock to me. I kind of lost contact with him right before his son came into the picture, but the last few months or so ive felt this great urge to reach out to him and last night I finally tried to and that’s when I found out, and for not seeing him in so long it truly has hit me in a spot I didn’t relies was there, my heart hurts for his loved ones but I also know hes in a better place and from what I gather it was a sudden thing which in a weird was is a blessing because he was so full of life and I couldnt imagine him having to suffer through some long terrible diseases. He was such a gentle soul and would have done anything for anyone, many times offering up his couch to someone in need or give his last dollar away because he wanted to. I know I can say with confidence he lived his life his way, the way he wanted to and not to many people are strong enough to do that. If the saying would go people had 9 lives he definitely lived each one to the fullest. I know he now in heaven cutting some dogs hair smiling and beaming with pride on the legacy he left behind. Thank you Tige for all the smiles, I’m a better person for knowing you!

Even though your birthday has past we still celebrate the life you had and the life you left within your children....Seraphine is still having hard time and asks me daily why it had it be her Daddy. I can't say much but that I assume there was a reason why and that I am here for her. I tell her that you are watching her from up above. I know this is true. I know nothing could keep you from your lil pudding pop:)
Missing ya!!

Tige,I learned so much from you in the few encounters we had. I was always so impacted on your soul and your passion. You loved and accepted me into your heart and family with out question or hesitation. You heart and true nature is something I will never forget and I will strive to be like, because I was inspired by your passion and acceptance of people. It really does hurt me so much when I think of the fact that you died on my birthday. I try really hard to not think of that day as the day you died, but to celebrate your life. I only knew you for a short time and had only a few encounters with you, but your made such impact on me and my life as an artist, friend and family member that I have realized what a treasure you were to the world and how much you made a difference into the lives of everyone you knew.

Thank you Tige for your friendship and the gift of our daughter. Thank you for the memories, and crazy times, but most of all THANK YOU for just being you. Allot of people hide behind an image and this was never you. You had charisma, laughter, creativity and the biggest heart imaginable. All qualities you have shown our daughter. You will be forever missed. I have but one long request. Please watch over Seraphine and Rhyder spread your arms wide to carry them, and help them to find the laughter in their bellies, wisdom in their minds and strength in their hearts as they push forward thru life. God Bless all of the family with your warmth and carefree spirit.

To my dear nephew Tige, I miss you and love you very much. Since the day you arrived to my house in Corpus Christi, Texas you brought more happiness and laughter to all. The two years I got to be around you was great, not once did I ever see you mad you always had that great big smile no matter what. I'll never forget the first time you came up behind me and gave me a great big O hug, squeeze the heck out of me not to mention the scare you gave me never expecting that and you just laughed, and worned me there are lots more to come Aunt Virgie. I am so proud of you cause you showed me how much you loved us all especially your children. You will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Love you Aunt Virgie!

We ask why? Why did you have to leave those who loved you so much? Cause God has called you home and now you are the Angel who will spread your wings over your beautiful daughter and gorgeous son that need you to guide and protect them as they go thru life trying to make sense of why their daddy is not with them. You touched so many lifes and you will always be missed, but never forgotten. Your service in December in Corpus Christi, TX proved how much you were loved and how special you truly were. The stories shared by those who were strong enough to go up and speak only confirms that you made a difference in their lifes. The story of how you went out and showed that you were the best at break dancing that one night at a club. The one of how you were the first to offer your help no matter how tired you were. I can go on and on. I did not have the privelage to spent much time around you but I do know that you loved your son and daughter very much. Your were a wonderful father to Rhyder, my only grandson. My heart aches for him as he will not have you in his life. Thank you for working so hard to provide for him as you did. My sincere condolences go out to all his family especially all those in California who did not have him close by as he was living in Texas. I hope that Rhyder will grow up to be a kind, gentle and good hearted human being as you were Tige. REST IN PEACE!

Memories we will hold dear. The friendship, the laughter, the hugs, the art, the poems, they all will be terribly missed, but remembered. We love you Tige. Always have, always will. Words seem inadequate to express the sadness we feel, but we will see you again. Until then, we will thank God for the time we shared with you. Our sincere condolences go to your family.

We love and miss you little brother. You have brought so much laughter and love to our lives. Not a day goes by that we don't stop and think of you. You were a bright, shining star in our family. You were the most amazing brother / uncle anyone could ever ask for. May God keep hold you in his loving hands, until we meet again.
