tyler / Grandma (grandparents)
dear tyler; its been a while, im sorry. it just gets so hard to have to write you instead of picking up the phone and talking to you. we miss you more and more each day. every time i see cole with keith, brett etc. i cant hold back my tears. he looks like he is losing out so much. it should be you with him , as you always were. there isnt much to say, the days go by, time marches on and you are not here. we are taking one day at a time and just keeping up the face. we dont want cole to see how much we are hurting. your dad is so lost without you . he sees your sisters but.. not his son. i feel so badly for him. he has been a strong help to all of us.  we just left mommy, cole, britt and jordie today. they are okay. your sisters talk about you all the time with tears in their eyes. what devastation. nothing we do will change these circumstances. soooo we go on.  say hi to our families and give them our love we think about them all the time.  you be happy, i know you are finally SAFE.   love you .

just to say i love you  / Rachel (friend)
Tyler, it has been so long since i have written to you
i miss you so much, just know that i have been thinking about you every single day.
Its funny actually, i recently moved to ohio and i was thinking of how much i would be missing you if i had to leave you physically, but i dont have to do that because your with my all the time in my heart
Tyler, i want to thank you so much, you have made me such a strong person

i miss you more and more each day and i love you very much <3 Close

whats up  / Uncle Jeff

Tyler

Whats up Tyler. Hope all is well in the land of smiles and happiness.

Down hear just a roller coaster of BS. We all continue to move forward because there is no other option than not. Your immediate family is doing well,your sisters are excelling in school and your brother is growing up fast. Then again you know that.

Other than that our Jets are looking good and FSU kicked Miami's butt with a good chance to have a great year.

Just wrote to say Hi

love ya

Tyler / Brittany &. Rob (Sister & the Boyfriend )

Just know that we think of you often, and everytime we are together I tell another story. It's hard to think that tragedy brings people closer together, and reality sets in and makes you appreciate the people in your life, and how strong love really is. Through this all, I have had someone to lean on, take anger out on, and sob to. I thank God everyday for bringing Rob and I together, it must have been fate. Two months before your accident, Rob and I made a pact that we were ready to start a journey together and face the obsitcles - not knowing what was in store two months into our future. We want to let you know you are such a strong element in what keeps us going, and are embedded in our hearts forever.

-Robert Greco & Your Sister :)

my star  / Mommy (mom)
Tyler ,my shining star, my son
You keep shining bright and watching over us with your sister .
There is not  a moment, not a second that goes by that you are not in our hearts and our being .We miss your laughter, your touch, your smile but your love is with us each and every moment of our being ,no one can  take that from us .
You are our hero, and our love.
Too much to say in words from my heart.
I love you cookie with all I have .

carry this picture.  / Brittany Goldberg (OLDEST SISTER )

in my heart - in my mind

you're face is always there.

in my dreams - the vivid dreams

i just know your still here.

the scent of your flesh

stuck on your clothes -

the ones you always loved to wear

your room empty where no one goes.

empty is the spot on the couch

the extra kitchen chair.

the void is present, it's overwhelming

it's everywhere.

the clock keeps ticking - and you're not home.  / Brittany Goldberg (OLDEST SISTER )

Angel.

the bright blonde hair, that soft white face

no one and nothing could ever replace

your beautiful soul, your daring heart

a distance away, but never apart

you are in my mind, you are on my soul

you are the tale that is to be told

eyes are closed frowns are painted

the plans we made are now tainted

the future holds a void in presence

a story that is much too dense

the fight is over yet the battle just begun

for you were taken much too young

the stars light is a little bit dimmer

the sun fades much quicker

the song of the birds are quiet and mellow

under the eyes of your loved ones have turned yellow

pictures are hung with such dignity

oh Angel, how could this be.

Tyler, the only one  / Grandma (grandparents)
hi sweetheart, just had to say hello. think about you 24/7. have your face in front of me all the time. handsome, sweet and with the best sense of humor , thats our tyler. we are getting ready for the jewish new year and dinner as a family less two. but only missinging in body not mind. yup , im busy getting the yummies ready. your favorite brisket, potatoes , etc.  chicken soup and plenty of matzo balls, and of course, your favorite, gefilte fish..... i had to push myself to do it, its not in my heart. i wanted to crawl into a corner alone and let the holiday pass, but, their is your brother and sisters and i couldnt do that to them. so , as i have been telling you,we go on, one step at a time and get thru the days, weeks, and months. Cole makes that easier in a way, he keeps us going and has your sense of humor and i see you in him in so many ways. your sisters are doing incredibly wonderful in college. we are so very proud of them. imagine how hard it is for them. they hurt so much and miss you sooo. poppy is poppy, lol.  he laughs when we reminise about your visits with us and then you can see thepain he feels. anyway, its getting time to shower and relax , dinner is over and so is the cleanup.   you be good and stay tight with our loved ones. till the next time.   love yu with all my heart. xxxxx grandma Close

while the world seems to crumble  / Uncle Jeff

Tyler

Sorry I haven't written but I sworw I would never write out of anger so I layed low for awhile. Obviosly you arent paying much attention to sports or you would have handled Monday night a little better. Its ok we will do fine while as they say,if it looks like a fish ,smells like a fish it must be the last place fins.

Everything here is about the same as you know,heartache continue sto be the way but that will never change. Nothing can make us forget what you meant to all especially Mom and your siblings.

As is always the case some try and revise history as time goes by figuring if you say something enough it becomes reality. Well Tyler don't worry that will never ever happen as long as those of us who know are vertical and taking nurishment. We have alot going on for the foundation and hopefully we can continue to drive forward and help those who need it.

Say Hi to all our family

love ya kiddo

there goes my life - there goes my everything.  / Brittany Goldberg (Sister)

so there i was, and there you were. laughing and talking, about everything - as if you were still here. it was so real tyler, so real, but so awefully painful. but i thank you for coming to me last night, for showing me that no matter how hard we prayed, how much we all long for you to be here - you wouldn't be yourself. not the tyler we all know, although we would love you all the same. i watch all these medical mysteries, hear all the dreadful stories about things that happen to people - and how they survive, and i always ask myself why you. why us. why. but, the question goes unanswered. no matter how hard i try the image i saw of the tyler that "would have been" doesn't leave; yet the dreams i have of you coming back for a day or two you look normal - and so i know. you would have never been the same. the picture is so vivid tyler, so vivid i can explain it perfectly & paint the picture. from the way you walked, to your speaking abilities, to the way you looked at me with such a cute smile...to you being ALIVE. but i compare that image in my head to the pictures on the wall - - and its so different, so unnatural, so not you. i know now, what i had to believe before...thank you for showing me. you always know just what to do...

i love you, & don't ever hesistate to visit.<3

our dream boy  / Grandma (grandparents)
dear tyler. this is the first day ;i was up to writing you. i just want to pick up the phone and say hi ty how are you. but, i cant, so this is the best i can do. we miss yu so words can not express the emptiness we feel without you. the worst of all this is WHY WHY? THERE ARE NO ANSWERS THAT CAN CONSOLE US. the reason is so horrifying what can we say or do. nothing YET.....  the time will come have no fear you did not leave us  in vain.  Carelessness, Selfishness and just plain ignorance..... there are other words which i will not stoop to revealing to you. but ty you know me, and yu know what i am thinking.  enough...... to pleasantries.   cole is fine and growing like a beautiful flower, of course, he has your roots. you two may not have had the usual time brothers share, but you left a permanent impression on your brother. HEART HEART.  thats what you both are made of. cole is the smartest young 2 1/2 yr old in his class, thats quoting his teachers. he speaks like an adult and acts the same. he does puzzles, knows his alphabet even counts in spanish. how about that. im sure you are watching him.    hope you are having a good time with our wonderful family upstairs..... downstairs we are fine and taking one day at a time. never without you in our hearts and mind.      love you, RIP Close

down came the closet  / Uncle Jeff

I am sure they are fighting for time with you. We all miss you and that silly smile you always gave me, Every so often it all comes back right till the final moments.Its still sureal and hard to believe but we continue to keep your name alive and will with every breath remember who you are and what you meant to all who knew you.

one year and a half that you were physically taken  / Mommy (mom)
My dear baby ,
Today is an unimaginable day ,one year and a half when I kissed your lips ,held your hands, rubbed your head and told you everything would be okay. I guess you knew better than all of us ,I regret never telling you it was okay to let go if you needed to but you my son knew what was best for you .Being more of a man than many ,you did what you had to do .
I cannot express in words what is in my heart,but you know how much you are loved ,missed and how we all ache for you every second of every day .
The whole thing is just unfathomable and never never should have been,but ?
I only hope that you have peace now and know that we here are doing everything possible to keep your name alive and help so many .That we are trying to make your name a household one ,that before people act they will think of you ,what a legacy and that my son you deserve.
The other night we were all talking about you ,aunt grace,uncle jeff,your sisters and others and all of a sudden we heard a boom,uncle jeff and i ran up stairs and there in the closet where all of your things are ,the light was on,the door ajar and when we finally opened it ,there was your beautiful baby picture staring right at us .Uncle Jeff and I looked at each other ,shook our heads ,closed the door ,shut the light and walked away in silence with tears being held back . Yes my baby we know you are here ,and of course you always give it to uncle jeff....
I cant write more ,it hurts too much but just know there is so much good that you are doing and we have just begun ...
I Love you cookie heart and soul . Close

who knew?  / Brittany Goldberg (Sister)
hey bro - whats going on up there? anything interesting? probably never a dull moment, similar to here, except without the b.s? lol. well, i started my last semester last week, amazing huh? almost a college graduate!! i'm getting ready for a long weekend, a friends birthday party tonight, and spending a few days with rob.  this morning mom, jordan, cole and i spent a little time in my room and it brought us back to the times we all would sit in there and hang out. nothing too different, except a bigger bed, and less people. thats just how it is, the same - but oh so different; oh and add some b.s. lol. it's alright though, somehow we are all going through it, one step at a time, and eventually everything will settle into place, im pretty confident in that. there are days where i forget you 'went away' and other days where thats all that it is on my mind. well, back to school - taking a few interesting classes to wrap up my undergraduate career, i decided to take a few extra classes so that i could graduate with a minor; hey why not right? so ill get my b.a. in criminology and a minor in sociology...i'm pretty excited, nervous & kinda sad that ill have to end this phase of my life without you.  well hun, i have gotta get dressed and ready for the birthday party. i love you, and i will never forget you!!!!! =] Close

to the one and only tyler always in our hearts  / Grandma GRANDMA (grandparents)
Dear tyler; just got off the phone with Cole and mom.  all is well there. Cole just finished dinner and gave me all the details of what he ate and was now ready for mom to read him a book  ... He loves to be read to.. just like you. remember how many books i use to read to you before bedtime.  always one more... lol, he does the samething. He talks about you and Rian all the time. he says you are in heaven doing your thing, just as he does his down here...... if it rains and thunders, he says its you bowling... can you believe that. he told his teacher that the other day when one of the kids starting crying when it thunder, he said, "its okay, thats my brother tyler bowling". The teacher came out when cole was leaving and told mom, she had tears in her eyes. couldnt believe how brilliant he is. So even though you and cole werent together as long as you were meant to be, you live every day in his heart and mind along with Rian. hesees pictures of her and has familiarized himself with her. he is glad you are not alone up in heaven. your untimely death has not gone , for one second, unnoticed and the reason WHY.... we all know that.  tyler, you will live forever in our hearts and minds and one day we will be together and talk things over. lots to talk about.  love you miss you more each day.   grandma/poppy.......

your presence and love surrounds us  / Mommy (mom)
Cookie ,
It has taken some time for me to write ,sometimes the words are just not enough for whats in the heart.
There has been so much going on that surrounds who you are and the impact that you constantly make on so many.
We have just started your quest and I promise you your name,your lessons and your strong love for others will always be there and you my son will never,ever be forgotten.
To watch so many continue on keeping your lessons alive is overwhelming . Your friends and even those that you did not know that well have joined our forces to make your name stand strong,your love ,your heart. Zach and    Eric have taken a role in your foundation that is just amazing and ensures that it will continue forever and reach out to every child,parent and adult .
    Watching your doctors continue to keep you in their hearts and fight for your quest is just more thn words can ever express.
YOu my son were always special but now you have created a twist on who you stand for ,you have embedded your self in most peoples heart,soul and how they perceive family.
Not many people can ever have that .
I know you surround us each and every day and your love is so strong that we all feel it with each step that we take.
I love you cookie ,heart ,soul and with all I have.
We have just begun .... Close

you crack me up  / Uncle Jeff

Hi Tyler

I had this funny dream the other day remembering the time you screamed at me for pushing you to hard in hockey. I remember that look in your eye when you screamed " I am skating". I don't know why but it still makes me laugh. I guess you saw us at the cemetary and that crazy guy who yelled at the funeral procession while Aunt Grace and I waited. Pretty funny. Well that is todays theme to laugh so we don't cry. You have left quite the foot print one that many who live to 100 will never have and we have just started. Thanks for Favre good move.

Be good hi to all

Uncle Jeff

Kisses,Love ya
