Dear Shannon, Brett and Dani, I was devistated when I heard about Tyler. He was my Physical Therapist for a year and a half. I think I was his first or second patient when he started his PT position in Torrance. What a special man, always had a smile on his face. He was the best Physical Therapist I ever had. He helped me get over a torn tendon in my right elbow. Five months later I am back again after breaking my left ankle. Tyler treated each of his patients with such care and concern. While I was in my boot, I remember he went out his way to find a piece of foam that I could fit into my boot, so my ankle wouldnt hurt. He was a real gem. I feel like I know all of you, because he spoke so highly of his “family”. Dani you might not remember me, but I was the one who called you to find out about some restaurants in Laguna, and venues my friend could play his guitar at.
It was so nice of your father to give me your phone number. He certainly loved life and will always be remembered as a happy go lucky guy. My thoughts are with you and the rest of your families, during this difficult time. My each day get a little easier for all of you.
Sincerely,
Saundra Marcus

To the Mimm family,
I was so saddened by your loss. Although our families are not in contact very much, you have all been on my mind since I found out. I didn’t know Tyler, but he sounded like an amazing man. My family has been in your shoes and you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
