For Jenn, and all of Tyler's family and loved ones:
Words so often fail us, so it helps to turn to the timeless words of past masters. The following is from Yehuda Halevi, who lived a millennium ago:
It’s a fearful thing to love
what death can touch.
A fearful thing to love,
hope, dream: to be —
to be, and oh! to lose.
A thing for fools this, and
a holy thing,
a holy thing to love.
For
your life has lived in me,
your laugh once lifted me,
your word was a gift to me.
To remember this brings painful joy.
It’s a human thing, love,
a holy thing,
to love
what death has touched.
I wish you peace that surpasses understanding,
--D

Jenn,
I cannot imagine your pain in the loss of the love of your life. It is deeply evident how much you loved each other. I hope the memories of the good times together can soon outweigh your sense of loss, pain, and grief. Sending you positive energy and saying lots of prayers for you both. Best wishes, Bill

My condolences to Tyler's friends, family, and his wife Jen. I worked with Tyler for many years at Assurant. He was a good friend first and coworker second. For many years leaned on each other and encouraged to not only do better at work, but better in life. We spoke about everything from football, politics, and a little of everything under the sun. He did have his quirks, but that just added to legend of Tyler. I remember when I'd call him he would great me with, "Heya pal." You could hear him smiling through the phone. He also has a unique dry sense of humor and I would just be rolling laughing. Last, but no least, he was my battle buddy when things were tough. We hung in there together and he pulled me through a rough patch professionally and without him, I wouldn't be who I am today. I miss you pal.
