Hello-
I'm so so very sorry to hear about Tyler. I used to babysit for you and Tyler back when he was about 1.5 years old through 7 Hills. I was just telling someone about him and decided..what the heck? And googled his name and .......found this....
Please accept my respects to your family and know how truly sorry (and sad) I am to hear that Tyler earned his angel wings early. (Though God does call the ones he loves best early)

(((((The Family of David Tyler White))))),
I am so VERY SORRY to read of your wonderful, handsome young son David’s terrible illness and his sad death. Please accept my deepest condolences and sympathies. I understand what it means to have a beautiful child die. I am so sad to learn that there are more parents suffering the ultimate loss, the death of a son or daughter.
My wife and I are from Connecticut. Our beautiful 11 year old daughter, Danielle Marie died of a massive traumatic head injury suffered in a horrific automobile accident in February 2006 in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. Danielle was pronounced dead at the scene. There is no guide, instructions or plan for us to follow after the death of our child, each day is a difficult challenge both emotionally and physically. It is a struggle to make any sense of the life we now have to live.
Please know that you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Again I am so very sorry.
Take Care & God Bless,
John-Daddy of Angel

Dear David & Kim
I want to express my sincere sympathy on the loss of your son Tyler. Although he was here but a short time, he touched many lives, and am sure will be missed by many. Tyler was an angel, and is now standing tall looking down upon us.
I'm sorry that I couldn't be with you in your time of need, but my thoughts and heart were with you.
God bless you.

Paula, Phil, David & Family:
Although we never met Tyler, we always heard how much of an inspiration and loving child he was from his granparents, Paula & Phil.
They always had a big smile on their faces when they talked about him.
We're so sorry God had to take him so young, but as you know, there is a reason for everything he does even though we'll never understand his reason.
Be strong and remember the happy times you had with him.

Dear Michelle,
Don't think of him as gone away-
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many faucets-
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost-
and he was loved so much.
** Just a poem for you I hope it helps.
You are in my heart and prayers.

Sometimes when we least expect it a bell rings and an Angle gets his wings and flys away. May the sun shine, birds sing, and bells chime every time you think of your beautiful son. His simle lives on in all our hearts forever.

Michelle, Dave & Sam, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Children are gifts … given to us temporarily to care for. They may not be with us as long as we expect … or they may outlive us. Whatever happens, it’s important to remember that they aren’t ours, they are themselves.

Michelle and David,
I don't know what to say. We lost our little man. I still can't believe it. He was such a ray of sunshine each time he came into the classroom. He has taught me so much about life. He taught me how to not forget about the little pleasures in life because they are truly part of the big picture. Thank you so much for sharing him with my mother and I. He really became part of the family through the years and I don't know what I will do without my little buddy. Again I want to give you my deepest sympathy, and know that if you need ANYTHING give me a call and I'll be there.

He'll forever be a part of our "Farm Hill Family Day".
