On behalf of the Board and members of the National Security Forum that Ty created, we extend our deepest condolences to Suellen and the family. It has been an honor to continue Ty's vision to bring meaningful discussions on the myriad of national security affairs to the citizens of Nevada. Ty was a great American and kind friend. Rest in peace, good sir.

Ty has been a positive influence for many people. He has been a family friend since college to the present. They parked the school bus in our back yard . Ty will be missed by his friends and family. He was very wise in so many decisions.
Condolences and Gods blessings for his family.

I served with Ty at the Social Sciences Department at West Point and then on the Reagan NSC staff. We were also neighbors in the McLean Hamlet neighborhood in Northern Virginia. He is among the smartest and wisest people I ever met. I am proud to have had him as a friend, mentor, and occasional boss.
