Tyler, born May 15, 1981, passed away peacefully with his mom by his side on Monday, September 9, 2013. For 10 months Tyler fought a courageous battle with cancer.

Tyler grew up in a close loving family surrounding and he always enjoyed spending time at his family home. He enjoyed life and lived it to the fullest. He was always there to lend a helping hand to anyone.

Tyler grew up in Kimberley with very special friends, many of whom, spent their last days with him at the hospital. While growing up, Tyler played hockey and baseball. Tyler loved spending summers camping with his family at McNair Lake. Later, Tyler enjoyed sledding, boating and mud bogging. Tyler was famously known for his passion of Ford trucks. He built them, bought them, drove them and blew them up at the mud bogs!

After high school, Tyler was employed by Precision Drilling for 14 years on rig #159. He started as a roughneck and proudly worked his way up to becoming the rig manager.

Left to mourn Tyler's passing are his mom Marie, son Austin, cousin Lori, his dog Biscuit and all of his many close friends. Tyler was predeceased by his loving father Ed in 2005 and his little brother Dylan in 2010.
