    While I only got to chat with you a few times at family gatherings you made quite an impression on me that very first time. A young boy with so much passion. You will always be that sweet boy that made my dear Emily so very happy, I am saddened by your early departure from this world but I know that you will watch over her always. You will never be forgotten as you will shine as bright in heavan as you did on earth. RIP

    Troy & Roberta and family- I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Tyler as a little boy when he and Christian played together a few times. He was a very sweet little boy. Christian used to add his name to our bed time prayers when he was little…and God Bless Tyler….I will be giving a memorial to Cathedral of the Pines Camp at Mount Olivet in remembrance of him. I will keep you all in my prayers! Much love, Carol

    Your are my sunshine my heart my soul. The reason I kept trying in life. When you came home to me I felt my life had come full circle. All my children had come home and then finally my Baby. Your smile your laughter ,your forgiving kind heart. Will always live on inside of me. They say when you lose a child . you lose a piece of your soul. It’s been a dark and lonely place without you . my angel Tyler. Love lives on in memories of Tyler James Brinker . I love you my son
