Wow. I only JUST learned. News doesn't always travel quickly when it ought to.
Almost 6 years to the day before he passed, Tyler was Elder Almond, showed up at my door with Elder Betts. I hadn't been to church for the better part of a decade and they wanted to talk. Thus began befriending numerous Elders over many months, followed by my teaching Sunday School for a year, then a calling in Elders Quorum.

I owe Tyler more than I can ever repay. He helped reignite a fire for the gospel which burns hotter and brighter now than it ever had in my life. I look forward to seeing him again. I have no doubt that he's counted among the best missionaries to ever serve.

My love and gratitude to his family. He was truly exceptional. Hopefully, this note brings more joy than not. If not, I am truly sorry.

I apologize that I am late in posting these pictures. I only recently found out about Tyler's passing. I served an LDS mission with him in Port Huron Michigan for a few months. I never saw Tyler in a bad mood he was always so caring for others and would serve wherever he could. I reunited with him at a mission reunion a couple of years ago and he was that same easy going kind person that I knew on my mission. He was a great example to me and I am sure he is doing great work for the Lord in Heaven. My condolences to his family for their lose. And to his parents thank you for raising such an amazing man.

I was fortunate to serve a church mission during the same time as Tyler. We were never super close, but Tyler always took the time out of his day to say hi to me. I will always remember him for his friendliness and his contagious smile. He will be missed dearly.

I had the opportunity to serve with Elder Almond in the Detroit mission. The mission was extremely hard and lonely for me. He was so kind to me and always patient with everyone. He will be truly missed.

Tyler was friends with a few of my friends. We didn't cross paths socially that often, because I'm a bit older and have kids, but he always said hello to me and my kids and asked how we were doing when we'd run into him at church. Sometimes that was just the kindness I needed. We'll miss you, Tyler!

He was always happy to see you and you were always happy to see him.

So truly sorry to hear of Elder Almond’s passing. What a wonderful human being, he was. I was blessed to be taught by him on his mission. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family, and anyone else who has been affected by his passing.

There was a time on the mission when the vehicle coordinating sr couple had changed the mission's insurance and not told anyone, I got pulled over for no insurance. After the officer let me go. I called elder almond to tell him what happened and he could not stop laughing long enough to tell me why this happened. Every time I saw him after that he would just start laughing. So my memory of him is laughing and being happy. Even if it was at my expense. That's how I choose to remember him. Rest in peace my friend. Til we meet again.

Tyler always knew how to treat me with kindness and love, sometimes I would walk near center street and he would see me and he would say in a high pitched excited voice hello Emily! I have some disabilities but he looked always past that and I will remember him for the rest of my life!!!

I met Tyler when I moved to Provo in summer of 2018. Shortly after moving there, my mother, suffering from cancer, passed away in October.

I went home for a few months prior to her passing to be with her and attend her funeral. When I arrived back from my visit home, I attended a ward function. Tyler came and put his arm around me, and said, “I’m so sorry about your mom. If you ever need to talk, let me know. Seriously, I’m here.”

I knew it was genuine. It was a simple gesture but one I have never forgotten. Tyler is just so full of love and compassion. I sure love him.
