I did not know Tyler but I have Ryan this year at Bunker Hill. Ryan is one of the sweetest students I have every had and the other teachers told me that Tyler was the same when he was here. Always smiling. My heart goes out to the family - Ryan, we are all thinking of you here at Bunker Hill and sending our deep felt condolences to your and your parents for your loss. You will always have an Angel watching over you now. All your classmates were saddened to hear the news and are thinking of you also. Mrs. G
