Hey Tyler. Life is still rough. My ex and I are not getting back together. That's okay. I just want her to be happy. If she is happy... and alive... then I'm happy. Still don't know my purpose. I'm 24 now, I made it and I'm still here. Been really getting deep into Buddhism, it is really interesting stuff. I bought a camera too. We live in a beautiful world, brother. I'm a complete wreck still, but I just need to keep going. Some days, I think I'll join you... other days, you know, I try to find a reason to keep going. I'm broken right now, and trying to heal and all that. A bit nervous about this summer, my ex and I work at the same job. We also signed a dang lease for next year... not really sure what the game plan is for that. Just gotta take it one day at a time, you know? Ha, there is this cute girl next to me in economics class... but I'm not gonna try again, haha. Anyways. Yeah. Oh, and I ended up dropping a class... never done that before! Truthfully... I don't know if I will be here next year, y'know, I'm really in a dark place. A constant daily struggle. But hey, like I said above... the world is a beautiful place and there is a lot to live for! Repose en paix mon ami et je t'aime bien toujours.

Hey Tyler. Life update. Life's been rough lately. My girlfriend of five years left me. Trying to stay alive and afloat. Miss you dude. She left me to focus on her mental health. I've been blaming myself every single day for the past month. We talked yesterday. She said we're never getting back together. She feels like a burden to me, I feel so bad. She loves me still, at least that's what she says. I love her too. Really struggling to find a purpose. She was my purpose. It is hard, brother. Still think about you a lot. Miss you a lot man. Ha, remember when we'd mess around on the forums? Good times. Being 14... seems so long ago... a decade really... I will be 24 in March. See you soon, old friend.

Hey Tyler! A little early this year, but I am worried I will get caught up with midterms and forget to post. Still miss you bro. A lot has changed in the world over the past nine years. A lot has changed in my life too. I'm not a dumb teenager anymore. Sometimes I'm a bit jealous actually, as you will always be in that dumb teenager phase but I am well past it. Gonna be 24 in March, crazy how time flies. You were like a brother to me, no one has quite replaced that feeling. Been with my girlfriend for about five years now - would've loved if you were around to meet her. I don't really talk to anyone from our gaming group from the forums... a lot of them having families now, Ty. I'm almost done with university. Studying Geography/Environmental Sustainability right now. Thanks again for introducing me to the French language by the way. Bit of a long post, just been feeling really lonely. Not much makes me sad, you know this buddy, but your passing hits me hard every year. Almost a decade. My dog, you know, the puppy I showed you pictures of, she passed away a few months ago from cancer - really tore me up, pal. My little dog, the pomeranian, she is still kicking though! She is like 14 years old! Crazy! She is missing all of her teeth though, she is literally an old grandma. Anyways. Thanks for the memories. It always breaks my heart seeing you were last online on 2014 November 02, and you passed the day after. Don't know what else to say.

Miss you bro! I wish you were still around, there are so many games that we could be playing together right now. If you were still alive today, I am sure we would have been playing some games together last night. Thanks again for all the good times we had on the forums, it was always really funny.

Time is genuinely flying by, old friend. Seven years. Wish you were still around, pal. I'm always going to remember you, as you were one of the first people I became actual friends with on the internet. Je t'aime bien et repose en paix.

I haven't forgotten about you, old friend. Thanks for the memories and for being a good friend. I am sorry that you are not here, but just know that you are missed. We'd certainly be playing games together to this day if you were here. Continue to rest in peace, my friend. Love you, my dude.

You would've been 19 today. God bless you. You were a great friend. I'm sorry that this happened to you, comrade. :( I am so sorry. You would've had such a great life, you were so smart and kind. When there was corrupt, you would speak out; you defended the rights of those who didn't speak up for themselves. I am sorry that you are dead, my dearest comrade. May you rest in peace. <3

Been two years. Rest in peace, dear friend :(

Hello. Could someone please inform me and Tyler's other friends how exactly Tyler died? Please. Thank you..

Its was so long before I knew what had happened and only now am i realizing how much fun you were to talk to, and how much of an impact you had on my life. I'm sorry it took me so long to find what to say and even now i still cant believe that your gone. I still turn my xbox on sometimes expecting to see you on. Thank You Tyler for everything. and i'm sorry

Tyler was one of my best online friends. He was wonderful to have around. He was so smart, nice and caring. He loved sharing his opinion and his opinion always made sense. He helped me see things in different ways, ways I could never imagine. People respected him, he knew what was up and what was right. I miss you, bro. I heard about his death in Dec-Jan and I was so depressed for about 2 weeks. I couldn't stop thinking of his death. He was last seen online on November 2nd, 2014. I miss him. Why did such a nice and smart person have to die? It is honestly not fair. You were always there for me, you helped others in a positive way. Rest in peace, Tyler :(

Tyler and I... we were good friends. Online buddies. Then he dropped off the radar for a bit.... and then I heard this. Goodbye my friend. You will be missed. Rest in peace.

Although we never met, we were still great friends. I will never forget you. Rest In Peace.

Our deepest sympathy to you all at this time of your loss.

I am employed by Linn Mar as a school bus rider/assistant on bus 31. Tyler was one of our passengers and was well-behaved and very quiet, qualities not many of our students possess. I will miss him very much and pray that you will get through this trying time. I'm sorry and you have my deepest sympathy!

I was unfortunate to not know Tyler that well, but I remember him from several of my classes last year. He was always very kind and very smart, him and his family will be in my prayers.

Tyler was my student in 8th grade and I remember his soft manners, love of pets and his sharp sense of humor. I am so saddened by his death and hope his family finds some peace in this tragedy. Y

My thoughts and prayers to Paul & Lori, losing a child is something no parent should have to go through, may peace come to your heart for you and your family.... Neighbor on George Dr

My deepest sympathy to Tyler's family on the loss of this great young man. I had the pleasure of knowing Tyler for the past several years. He always took the time to talk to me and we always found something to laugh about. He was well-mannered and engaging with a sense of humor I could relate to! He will be sorely missed by myself and my son. Aurevoir mon ami.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. As I read through the obituary, it is exactly how I remembered Tyler as an elementary student. Please know that I have you all in my thoughts and prayers. Lisa Gordon

I didn't really know you, but it's sad that you passed so unexpectedly. It's always sad when someone passes unexpectedly, especially someone that you've walked down the halls with. Rest in peace. You and your family are in my thoughts.

Allison and family, I am thinking of you! You are in my thoughts and prayers! Mrs. Farber
