I consider Tyrone family. We fought like brother & sister. Lord knows we laughed until we peed our pants and tears ran down our face. We loved one another unconditionally. He is and always will be unforgettable. So I dedicate the song,Unforgettable by Nat & Natalie Cole. Please listen to it one time with Tyrone specifically in mind and you´ll completely understand our relationship with one another. I will miss him terribly. I will love him always. Until we meet again. Save me a seat. Love, Brandy

I never met this Young 'so giving like Jesus' Human 'being'... But, words of those who knew his Earthly soul...speak Volumes... The world was certainly a better place that he lived... Sending Prayers of Peace and Love to all who were blessed by his being here... Even me...reading of his so generous Life! Hallelujah! To God be the Glory! (I don't live in hometown Houston anymore. But Tyrone Williams' story...touched me, to speak.) Amen

In 2005 l moved back to Texas and found myself homeless. I didn't know what I would do and had no family or friends to stay with. Tyrone not only welcomed me into his home, he cooked for me, gave me clothes, and even though he was very social and had lots of friends, he would clear out his home so that I could get some sleep and go to work. He supported me through my toughest of days, and I in turn supported him through his toughest. He was the best human I had known since my mother. He was family. I'll miss you forever "Sista"

I met Tyrone in Boston at my nephew Josh's house where we stayed for 4 or 5 days. After that we spent so many Christmas's together and my birthdays, dancing and having so much fun. He loved my children and they loved him. We spent time talking about my life and his and he always told me I need to write a book, even when I hadn't seen him or talked to him in awhile when I did, he would ask me if I wrote it yet. If I ever do it would be dedicated to him for all of his encouragement. I love him and he will be missed a lot.
