Tyler grew up in the small town of Buckner, Missouri and graduated from Fort Osage High School. He created so many memories as a child riding his bike around town and made lifelong friends. As a teenager Tyler met a girl named Paris thru mutual friends. Little did he know, she was his soulmate and they would soon form an unbreakable bond. They were blessed to spend the past 8 years as a couple creating a beautiful life together. They enjoyed taking long drives and walks, camping and traveling. Colorado was one of Tyler’s favorite destinations. He was a talented woodworker, an avid hunter and enjoyed his career as a truck driver. Tyler was kind, sassy, loyal, outgoing and never met a stranger. He was a Pokeman and Yu-Gi-O guru and would often rope Paris into his collecting adventures.
