Join Cindy and Jayce in Honoring Tyler's Memory

Hi - I am Cindy. Tylers Mom. Tyler passed in March of 2021. I miss him every day. He was a beautiful soul and a major lifeline of mine. Ours hearts are forever connected. I have been blessed to be able to adopt his son, Jayce, who also misses him more than any words I write could express. I began working with a professional for a headstone, to mark his resting spot up on the hill, under a tree, overlooking our town, early 2023. This will be a thoughtful & meaningful last gift to my son. Designed by Jayce and I. The top will be a green granite slab etched with a picture he drew of himself, atop the mountains overlooking Cimmaron Co, playing his guitar. I believe in my heart he connected with GOD the day he drew himself there. The slab will sit upon a metal cage to hold his rocks and a painted rock from anyone who chooses to gift one. I was quoted $8,000. I gave a $4,000 deposit. The person I trusted for this project continued to redesign my design into something I truly did not want. Over a year and a half I tried with all my might (and kindness) to communicate what was wanted and not wanted and the whys, the biggest being I did not want to take his boy up to his resting place and be distracted by a headstone I did not want and paid a lot for rather than being there for peace and fond reflection, as should be. The continued presented design was nowhere near the product I hoped to place. But to no avail. There are more details in the happenings which ended with me losing my $4,000 deposit, but that is really neither here nor there to drag on about and I'd like to remain positive, forgiving and forward moving. It has been a heavy to carry for me that I do not have this stone placed. I have conferred with another to build me the rock cage and am very happy with his input and would like to move forward with a different memorial professional. But, this loss has hindered me. My hope is to be gifted this loss, and truly, only this loss, and have his stone placed March 29th, 2026-marks the day he left here. There is not enough time to have it done for 2025. I thank each and every one of you who may gift even a kind thought, a prayer or a dollar. Blessings!
