To share more about him from those who knew him best...

Tyler was a rabid Boston sports’ fan. The Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots and Celtics had his total support, though oftentimes the same could not be said of management. He worshiped Tom Brady but thought Bill Belichick a fraud carried on Brady’s shoulders. He loved the Bruins but could rattle off all the stupid trades they’d made over the years and the General Managers who’d made them. The same goes for the Red Sox. He did, however, hold Danny Ainge in high regard for the many shrewd moves he made as Celtics’ GM. For some inexplicable reason, he was also a pro-wrestling fan. Tyler was a longtime and highly successful fantasy sports player and the life of the drafts. He played for decades with friends from elementary school. He loved music and held a special spot in his heart for any and all animals. Well versed in current events, he was smart and unafraid to go against popular opinion.

Tyler’s greatest love was reserved for Bethany and Max. Together since teenagers, he and Bethany were soulmates. Max was his boy, his buddy, and they enjoyed nothing more than hanging out together. Max loved his daddy and he knows his daddy loved him. Max will always remember the love they shared.
