Please Help Us Lay Tyler To Rest
Donation protected
I am raising money to help my cousin and best friend, Dawn, give her son the memorial service that he deserves. On Saturday, March 28, 2020, I was grocery shopping and Dawn called me hysterical! She told me Tyler had been shot and was being taken to LaPorte Hospital, but they did not think he was going to survive. I dropped what I was doing and tried to get to the hospital as quickly as I could... but it was already too late. Tyler's brother, Kyle, called when I was just blocks from the hospital parking lot and told me the crushing news... The doctors did everything they could, but Tyler's injuries were just too damaging and he didn't make it.
Tyler Alexander Terusiak was a beautiful soul. If you knew Tyler, you wanted to punch him in the face, but you also couldn't help but love the kid! His infectious smile and goofy, fun loving nature will be deeply missed. Our world, my world, will never be the same without him.
Please help my family give Tyler the send off he deserves. Tyler did not have life insurance, and due to the violent and horrific way he was taken from us, my family just isn't prepared. All donations will go to Tyler's mother and family to pay for any cost associated with Tyler's passing.
Please donate if you can. If you are unable to donate, please share this with as many people as possible and please, please keep Tyler and his family in your prayers as we all try to pick up the pieces and learn to live in a world without him. Thank you!
***Please Note: Due to the coronavirus and the social distancing orders made by the Governor of Indiana, we may not be able to have a gathering for Tyler at this time. If that is the case, we will hold a Celebration of Life/Memorial Service at a later date and that date will be announced.
