Morrison family, 
 
I wanted to let you know you are in my thoughts often, and especially so during this time of year. I can never thank you enough for the kindness and hospitality you showed me during your own time of grief. I hope the years have treated you kindly, and that there are many more happy memories that fill your head these days. Tyler is never, and will never be forgotten, nor will your graciousness be. 

Much love,
Alyssa Homan

I was just thinking about you today. Forever missing you and your kind spirit.

Thank you Tyler for trudging the road of happy destiny with me.  You made me a better man.  You will be sorely missed, however I take solace in knowing that while those here on Earth weep, your new friends in Heaven are rejoicing as they receive you.  Until we meet again my friend.

Tyler - We spent many days and nights hanging out and I miss the good times you,me, and Ramey shared. I know you are at peace now and no longer having to fight. I was saddened when Ramey called to tell me the news but I know are you in a better place now. One day I will see you again and see that smile that nobody can forget. I love you brother and you'll be deeply missed.

I light this candle for Tyler as he was a shining light on this earth. Though I only met Tyler on a few occasions with friends, his smile and sincerity immediately drew people to him. He was respectful and gave you his full attention in conversation. He and I were able to share deep conversations about life and God, without him even knowing me well. He was a sponge for love, growth, and friendship. Through Tyler's too sudden of death, I've learned in a greater way, that life is all too short and we must take time to listen and love to all those we meet. May Tyler rest in peace now in the arms of our loving Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Till we meet again.

Dear Tyler,
What an amazing ray of light you were in my life and all those around you! Your smile and laughter lifted up every room you entered. I will miss our debates and honest conversation. You made me strive to be more than I was and it was a privilege to call you my friend. I'm so sad  you're no longer with us, but rejoice knowing you are in the loving presence of our Lord. I know in my heart Heaven's light is shining even brighter with you being there. Watching you grow in your faith and closeness to God was both heart warming and inspirational. I'm so glad you were walking in the path of His grace and love when you crossed over on to the golden shores. I will miss you, but will see you again when we can all spend eternity in the land without sorrow or pain, sadness or tears. Fly away to Glory, sweet Tyler... and rest in the comfort of The Father's eternal love.

Tyler-
What an amazing man you were. You were always doing your part to help and inspire in any way you could. Anytime something went wrong, you were the first one to assure me that all was going to be well, that there's a reason for everything. You constantly reassured me that God has a plan for each person, that everything works out in the end. Tyler, you have honestly changed my perspective on life, you have made me a better person. You never thought twice about helping out; you were constantly chipping in wherever and whenever you were able. You had such a generous, loving, and kind heart. I am already missing our daily conversation about your love for fine dining and travel, and how you were going to fly the world someday. You were back on track, happier than you'd been in some time. You cared deeply for everyone close to you, and continuously raved about family and friends. Tyler, you are going to be severely missed by many. I love you, kiddo.

Tyler was so lucky to have such amazing parents and  wonderful brother and sister in law. He knew how much he was loved by all of you. Be comforted by the fact that you were always there for Tyler and he was proud to be part of the Morrison clan. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Marilyn and Peter

Dear Tyler...what a gift you were to so many.  You had such a tremendous way of making everyone you met feel special and like they were the only one in the room with the way you listened intently to everything they were saying.  Your thirst for knowledge always impressed me. The times when we were out in public and we told people I was your dad...those times made me feel so proud, like I was 10 feet tall.  If I had been lucky enough to have a son, I would have wanted him to be just like you.  I'm so sad to think that all of the plans you were making have been cut short.  I know you were looking so forward to getting back into school to get a degree.  Starting your life over so you could have a career and family. 
I'm so proud of you for the great strides you were making in your recovery.  You were well on your way.  I find comfort in knowing that you are now with the Lord and experiencing the Peace that comes with knowing him.  You brought so much joy to my life with your sense of humor and child like innocence. I love you and will miss you very much and please know that my life is better for having known you.

I immediately fell in love with Tyler when Ramey first brought him to our house to spend Christmas with us a few years ago. He then attended more family gatherings like my graduation from high school.  Tyler fit in so well with the family and I considered him to be the big brother that I have always wanted. I remember talking to him on graduation night about how nervous I was about college.  He was so reassuring and positive towards my insecurities and made me feel much more comfortable.  When college first started I remember him sending me inspirational text messages about how much fun college was going to be and how I was going to do great and it meant so much coming from him.  He was so thoughtful and caring for others and he had the biggest heart. Tyler was always such a pleasure to be around and it hurts to know that he will not be there to wear matching pajamas and open presents with us this Christmas.  I cannot thank you enough for allowing me to meet Tyler and spend time with him.  My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

I met Tyler when Ramey brought him to our house for Christmas a few years ago, and immediately fell in love with him. He was always a joy to be around, and had an "infectious" smile that would light up the room. He will be missed so much by our family. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to get to know your son...however brief it was. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this trying time.  Bert, Sharon, Abby and Murry Falkner

Tyler was a very special, charming and smart young man. He will be missed greatly, as he touched many different lives. I am very sorry for your loss. May God be with the family.
