Tyler was one of the good guys. I always thought of him as a "cooler" older brother who had all the greatest gadgets and jokes. He was a great brother to my best friend, Graham and will be truly missed but never forgotten.

I remember Tyler from when we were kids; he was a few years older than me, and lived down the street from my grandparents . He was always a kind person to me, and I'm sad to hear of his untimely passing. No matter how soon someone like Tyler leaves us, it's always too soon, and I'm sorry he's gone.

I did not know Tyler but wanted to express my sincere condolences on your sad loss. Losing one so young is especially unfair and perhaps in time this beautiful promise will bring a measure of comfort. John 5:28,29 Deepest sympathies to you all

Tyler was a wonderful person and always willing to help others. He was always fun to work with. He will be greatly missed...

~ Ann-Marie

My sincere condolences. I don’t think you could know Tyler without liking and caring for him. I had the pleasure of both working with Tyler and calling him my friend. He was simply a wonderful person and I'm the better for having known him. He is greatly missed.

The loss of ones child is a burden hard to imagine. Bruce, please know that my thoughts and prayers as a parent and friend are with you and your family. Whatever I might be able to do to ease your pain - just say the word. Sincerely, Rolly Upson

~ Rolland Upson

So sorry for your loss. We were in complete shock when we heard the sad news. We have both watched him grow from a shy skinny little teenager into a full caring man. Just last week he was in the shop talking about his latest busines adventures. He always had a new story or adventure to share when he came in to see us, he will be greatly missed by all of us at Cliff's .

~ Dave and Marie Carley

Having only worked with Tyler a few short months, I grew to know Tyler as a bright, hard working young man. He had such an easy going nature. We swapped crazy cat stories, talked about the e-cigarette business and shared a few laughs. I will miss him.

~ Mary

Tyler was always pleasant when ever we met him in the building. We will certainly miss his presence. Sincerest sympathies to Tyler's family and friends. Missed already.

Some years ago, I was a teacher in London. But now retired, I live in Oakville - where this sweet young man, Tyler, (when I complained) tried his best to take apart my radiators in my apartment unit, and clean them. Always polite and helpful. I am shocked and saddened to see the notice of his death - and at such a young age! He will be missed around this place, is missed already, because I cannot run into him in the elevator for a friendly nod, and greeting. Wishing his family strength at this most difficult time. As a mother of four, I can barely imagine the pain for his parents and siblings. Taken too soon! Blessings to all.

Bruce, So sorry to hear of Tyler's passing, was totally shocked when Elmer told me. Thinking of you all in the days to come

I worked with Tyler since he started working as our Maintenance man here in our building Park 50, Oakville, a man of few words, worked hard , and as we started to know each other, we had good conversations about his life and his dreams, I always called him my Son . I gave him a hug and held his face , Tuesday morning a day before he went away and had a few laughs and happy conversation. He is a very fine young man. He will be miss. He is with his Mom , happy and surrounded by the Angels and to the Loving Arms of our Almighty Father. Our Sincere Condolences to his Family. Marilou and Family -Park 50

Another good man taken before his time! it is with a heavy heart and tears rolling down my cheek that I bid goodnight and farewell to my friend Tyler Williston We were former co-workers at Cliff's Lawn & Garden in Oakville. Too young to die! I remember the day I first met Tyler Williston at my former workplace - such a shy young man, still missing his mom...he learned how to ride a motorcycle, take it on a trip to the east coast, he documented his achievements on Facebook - he'll be dearly missed. You are that shining star up above, till we meet again my friend. Sincere and heart felt condolences to his family.
