My prayers are with you Ashley, Cindy and family. I will remember Tyler for his uniqueness, kind and respectful soul, sense of humor, intelligence and his fierce love for his grandma. We had many talks about politics, religion, history and many trips chilling at the Book Barn. There is comfort knowing he is at peace and with those he loved. Take care of yourselves.

My condolences to Ashley,Cindy and family. I never met anyone with a bigger heart than Tyler. He spoke with my husband often of the plans that he and Jordan had made for the future, and was so supportive when my husband passed. I will miss seeing him shuffling around the kitchen or him and Jordan outside with the dogs. The 3 of us would often go for walks at the local park in the evenings. He would always pop his head in my room when I was watching TV to see if I wanted coffee or tea or whatever he was having. Tyler was a kind gentle loving soul and a big piece of our family. We will love and miss him always.
May he rest in peace.
Love to all Kerry Robinson
