I miss his smile, his charismatic and entertaining way of asking for something, his sweet "I love my mama" kisses in front of all of his friends, his jaunty walk, his cocky attitude, his love of life, his precious hugs, and his voice which resonated straight into my heart. Losing a son is like losing a precious and integral part of your self. It hurts as is you have lost a limb. Not only is there the "heart ache" only someone who has lost a loved one would understand, but there is the emptiness that you cannot fill no matter how hard you try. I dwell on beautiful memories that make me laugh and I cry with the sorrow of missing him so much. He was strong in his faith, he smiled at me when I told him I loved him, he took his last breath, which took away my breath. It's hard to breathe now. I miss him so much. I know he is in heaven, but that is too far for me. I understand that this is all in God's timing, His amazing plan, but I still ache inside with the feelings of emptiness. My bible is open in front of me, I search for a verse to give me strength. Psalm 119: 76 "May your unfailing love be my comfort......" Ecc 3:4 "A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance"

| He knew me before I was born. He has the perfect plan for me. I follow him without hesitation and I make myself available for his work through me. I don't always understand this path that he leads me down but I trust Him unequivocally. I am blessed to know Him and I because of Him, I am saved, for which I am prayerfully thankful. One day, we will meet face to face and I will wash His feet with my Hair. He knows my name, and when He calls me, I will be known as His child, which is the most precious name of all.

This is my son, Tyler Ray, born Feb 1, 1992 and sent to heaven on June 21, 2008. He was an amazing young man who will be missed by his family, friends and community. He was a popular young man who was involved in a diverse group of activities; he played on the Guthrie Bluejays Varsity Football Team (state champs last year), he was in Youth and Government, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Choir, Drama, and Church Youth Group.
During his funeral and his memorials, over 100 people raised their hands and accepted Christ into their hearts and lives, including family members, friends, teachers and coaches. He was an amazing boy on earth and is changing lives from heaven. I know he is smiling down on us! My family and our community will be in need of prayer for a while as we mourn his unexpected passing. Please keep us in your prayers as we grieve.
I hope your day is truly blessed!

| I loved Ty from the moment I first saw him and my heart has ached since he has left us for heaven on Saturday, June 21st. I am blessed to have had him in my life for 16 years and I prayed for a son like him before he was ever born. He was an answered prayer and I am so proud of him! I cannot express the feelings of emptiness that fills my heart and I cannot imagine life without him, so please keep me and my family in your prayers. Ty always made us laugh and was such an example of how we should live our lives to the fullest. He didn't always follow all the rules and he didn't always do what he was supposed to, but he always cared for his friends and family and would do anything for anyone at anytime. He was giving, loyal, generous and he loved God with all his heart. We had no idea that he had an enlarged heart, but we always knew his heart was big. He will live on in our memories and we must honor him by always trying to be the best we can be. It has been a comfort to me to be surrounded by not only my friends and family, but by his friends as well. They have always been welcome in our home and will always be welcome in our home. Tyler, we love you and miss you, but we are glad you are in heaven where you deserve to be!
