Tyler Thomas Graham, beloved son of Teasie and Karla Graham, went to be with the Lord on June 14, 2017. He will be missed dearly by his Mom and Dad, and two loving brothers, Travis and Trevor. Tyler was a fiercely devoted big brother and precious son. He loved his family deeply and had a heart that was unique, sincere and caring. Everyone who grew to know him was touched by his passionate and personable nature. He was always appreciative and thankful, with the best of intentions in mind. His silly laugh was contagious, his handsome face and smiling grin were warm and welcoming, and his beautiful blue eyes revealed his soul. Material things or his accomplishments were not what mattered to him. It was kindness and love. Tyler was a talented musician, songwriter, guitarist and singer. He had a special, beautiful voice. His passion was music, and he liked to paint and write. He was a hard worker, who knew the goodness received from helping others, and a military war history enthusiast with a tender heart for those wounded by war. Tyler adored animals and affectionately doted on his twin black labs, Miley and Maggie, who were usually by his side. He called them “his girls” and he loved spoiling them. Tyler also loved the outdoors and was an avid paintball enthusiast. Gone much too soon, he is survived by his parents Teasie and Karla, brothers Travis and Trevor, grandmothers Memaw and Nanny, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, and many friends. Tyler will remain with us forever, as nothing can ever take away the love we hold dear. The Lord called him for a greater purpose in heaven and, although our hearts ache, we know he has found sweet peace while we wait to be together again.
