Bernice,
I can’t imagine the pain and hearbreak you, John, and your entire family are experiencing. Ty was such an awesome kid! My favorite memory of him will always be from just last football season, I know you know it well. The last game of the season, senior night, pouring down rain, and CV getting hammered by the other team. Coach puts Ty in as running back late in the 4th quarter and he became a beast and was unstoppable. We all were so happy and proud of him, you especially! There was no way we were going to come back and win, but he helped us end the night on a higher note with his infectious smile and excitment and love for the game. My family is grateful and honored that we had the priveledge of knowing him through you, a life long school friend, and through football. He will be greatly missed by all! You are in our hearts and our prayers!
