We are heartbroken to share the loss of my cousin, Tyler Pastor. He was in a tragic accident after running out of gas on the highway. Tyler had pulled over and set out to get help or more gas when he was struck by a passing vehicle.

Tyler was full of life — goofy, kind-hearted, and always the one to make everyone laugh even on the hardest days. He had just graduated high school and was excited about the next chapter of his life. He had dreams, plans, and a spirit that could light up any room.

Losing him so young has left a hole in our hearts that words can’t fill. As our family tries to process this unimaginable pain, we’re asking for your help — not just to cover funeral expenses, but to give his family the time to grieve, heal, and honor his memory the way he deserves.

Any contribution, no matter how small, is deeply appreciated. Thank you for keeping Tyler and our family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
