Tyler’s Story: A Farewell for a Beautiful Soul

My son Tyler was 26 years old when he was senselessly murdered in a brutal knife attack. He wasn’t part of any gang, just a young man with a future he was looking forward to, and a beautiful, caring soul who touched everyone he met.

Tyler was humble and never asked for much. He loved the outdoors, enjoyed hiking, playing football from time to time, and gaming with his friends. He was always friendly, always chatting with everyone around him. His presence brought light and now, he’s left behind a heartbreaking void in our lives.

On the 6th July 2025, Tyler went out to meet friends. He never made it home.

A fatal stabbing destroyed our family in a single moment. No life should ever be taken this way. Now I face the impossible: planning my son’s funeral something no parent should ever have to do. I want to give Tyler the farewell he truly deserves.

Funds will go toward covering funeral costs and honouring Tyler’s memory. Every donation, big or small, and every share helps me take a step closer to celebrating his short but beautiful life.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for helping me honour my son.
