Tyler’s wake and funeral fund

Donation protected
Tyler gofund me As a family we never could have imagined that we would be having to deal with the loss of a family member at such a young age. But tragically on Monday 5th August 2024 my mom lost her son & we lost our youngest brother. Tyler was only 19 with his 20th birthday just around the corner. He was living with severe epilepsy & earlier this year was admitted to intensive care. He came through this episode, fighting strong. He had to take a long list of medication and it was hoped that they were finally starting to help somewhat. However, so so sadly last week he suffered his final fight with epilepsy. Losing Tyler this way is such a huge shock and totally unforeseen by his family and close friends. He was such a lovely gentle soul, full of mischief, with the cheekiest of smiles and the darkest sense of humour. He will leave a massive gap in everyone’s lives. We are now navigating organising his funeral and celebration of life. To be honest we are struggling to find the funds to cover all the costs and based on the quotation we have received we need to find in the region of £6000.00. We are required to pay all funeral costs before the funeral date. We have set up a Go Fund me page in order to help raise the necessary urgent funds. This is a very difficult ask, but please consider donating if you are able to do so. We are so very grateful for any donation at this very difficult time for my mom and family. Should any funds raised be in excess to the costs, they will be donated to the Epilepsy Society Charity and a memorial for Tyler. Funeral arrangements are in the process of being arranged, with a date to be confirmed shortly.
