Tyler's first job was at Image Englewood; a nonprofit community center, where he worked as an assistant in the food pantry; he was a young man that did not mind working; he would help in anyway with a positive attitude. Boy we will miss him.
Tyler enjoyed going to the Calumet Park Recreational Center, where he was involved in such sport activities as: basketball, football, baseball and track and field. Tyler was a young man of a few words, but was still a jokester; he liked to have fun.
Tyler loved playing his PlayStation, you would think there were ten people in his room the way he carried on; that made us laugh. He often spent time hanging out with his siblings, cousins, and friends. Tyler was blessed with a loving family; he was the youngest of three siblings.
