Dear Mimm Family,
I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. I only knew Tyler, or “Dani’s dad” as I knew him, for a short time when I met him during his visit to Australia to see Dani while we were studying there. She shared so many wonderful family stories with me…many that ended with us bursting into laughter. I clearly remember just how excited she was for her dad to arrive, saying “wait ’til you see how rad my dad is!” His lively personality and energy were contagious and I quickly came to see just how close he and Dani were as father and daughter. My warmest thoughts and prayers are with you all…what an incredible person you were blessed to share your lives with.

Tyler was a wonderful man that made me smile each time I saw him walk into the room! He had a whistle that no one could ever forget. I only got to work with him for a short time…but I saw how compassionate he was with his patients. He truly cared for the rehabiltation of them as a friend. He had a huge heart and was very sweet. I will never forget him. He will now be the guardian angel watching over his family and protecting them. Tyler will always be with everyone in spirit.

I was so shocked and saddened to hear the news about Tyler. Although I hadn’t seen him in years, he has always been one of the first people I thought of when I think of my time at Orville Wright and Westchester High. He was always the best looking guy in the school, but the great thing about it was he had no clue that people thought that about him. Reading all of these messages show what a great husband, father, friend, and therapist he was.
My prayers are with the Mimm family.
