“To Live in Hearts We Leave Behind…is Not to Die.”
-ClydeCampbell-
 
You left devoid of any warning
At the dawn of your adored life
We lost a friend that tragic morning
Someone we’ll think of day and night
You brought something into our lives
That no one else can ever bring
Without you, there is no longer light
And all the birds refuse to sing
 
Your happy, goofy, silly self
Was still here when you were gone
The reason why, you couldn’t tell
You’ve had this gift for very long 
 
I’m glad this gift has stayed with us
Because our wounds are running deep
We know that you are here with us
In time that’s all we’ll ever need
 
I’m sorry that I never knew you
I always thought that I’d have time
But that was something no one knew
 And you will always live on inside
 
Rest In Peace
Tyler Carlton Hewes
June 25, 1992 - November 24, 2007
