To the family of Mr Tyler, as we knew him at Pecan Park. I am a retiree who when I came to Pecan Park Mr. Tyler was head custodian, and when I left, he was still there as head custodian.I will cherish the wonderful memories of a few chuckles and laughter that a few coworkers and I would share periodically with him. He was kind and attentive to any classroom need that we had. He was a very easy-going person. I was very saddened to hear of your loss. I pray God's mercy and strength for you, his family, during this journey of pain and sorrow. May he give you the strength necessary to complete this journey as you trust God's loving arms around you to comfort and guide you each step of the way .
Mr. Tyler was a true friend a person that gave good sound advice when needed. I was a P.E teacher at Pecan Park for 12 years & Mr. Tyler was a big help to me when it came to putting things together in my classroom! May the Lord Jesus strengthen, comfort and always remind you all of this honest young man's kind heart and excellence spirit! A Friend and Co - worker, A.J

My condolences to the Tyler family. Psalms 34:18 "The Lord is close to the broken-hearted, he rescues those whose spirits are crushed." God is near and you are not alone. I worked with Mr. Tyler at Pecan Park Elementary school for about 30 years. He was a was quiet, kind, and good hearted big man, who was responsible, respectful, reliable and a very hard worker. He was gentle to the children and his buffed floors shined like the morning sun. He told me in a conversation that he worked at the JPS school sight for 50 years, and retired on a quiet summer day to no party or fanfare farewell. Mr Tyler you will be celebrated and rewarded in Heaven. Rest well sir. ππ½ππ½

Dear "Bear"
I am deeply saddened to hear about your passing. We've known each other for such a long time, since I was 19 (and now I am 50 years old) During that time, you were remarkable in my life. Your kindness, wisdom, and influence have left a lasting impression on me, and I am truly grateful for the memories.
You were a great man, and your legacy will continue to inspire those who knew you. Wishing your family (My Tee-Boo and Toot) peace and comfort in this difficult time.
With heartfelt condolences,
Shernika C. Forbes
