Pastor Talbot;
I am deeply saddened by your loss & pray I never can relate to it. I have 3 sons of my own. However, you being Tyro’s father, I trust he knew all about our Savior & is in His arms right now. I look forward to meeting Tyro one day (& you too).

We are deeply saddened by the passing of your dear son Tyro. My husband and myself had many a wonderful diving experience with him. He loved the whales. He loved his music and I know he loved his family. We hope you can find some comfort in knowing how truly he will be missed. You and your family are in our thoughts and in our prayers.
Sincerely,
Trisha & Tom

To the Talbot family-We are saddened by your loss. We had met Tyro and a couple of his brothers on our trips to Grand Turk. His smile and his infectious joy of life was apparent to all. Our thoughts are with your family. Gary and Casey Rea Columbus, Ohio
Pastor Talbot & Family and Oasis Divers:
We visited your beautiful island in 2005 and had such a wonderful time diving with Tyro and Oasis Divers. What a joy Tyro was and such a wonderful ambassador for Grand Turk, diving in Grand Turk, and his band of course! He made us all feel so welcome. It is a tragedy to lose someone so special, so young. The Feral Divers from the U.S. is a group of dives from California, Arizona, and Nevada. We come together in special parts of the world to dive a few times a year. We are all DEEPLY saddened by your loss and pray for you all. We thank Tyro for the joy he brought to so many lives. May he rest in peace
With heavy hearts we write to you.
Kind Regards,

As a Feral diver who was on the trip in 2005, Ty is recalled very well. My Gmail account picture is one of Ty and me in the band. I knew him for a week of my life and he treated me like a life long friend. I have never forgotten him and the joy he brought to me and my fellow Feral Divers.
If love can come that fast, we love Ty and will miss him greatly. The world needs more like him, not fewer.
Sadly yours,
Mike Glenn
To the Talbot Family and everyone on Grand Turk,
My wife, Lisa, and I are very saddened to here the news of Ty’s passing. Our stay on Grand Turk was wonderful, due in large part to him. We often remarked with the other couple we traveled with, Doug and Geeta Wilson, how Ty treated us like family members and locals, rather than tourist. Our last night with everyone at the Sandbar really brought that home. His picture has been up on our wall since our trip and will be missed.

TY WAS A SWEET HEART I KNEW HIM FOR A LONG TIME AND I LOVED HIM LIKE A BROTHER, I WILL MISS HIM
RE the report about the light alignment causing problems with the drivers, I agree but most of the numerous accidents here are caused by speeding, drinking and driving. Driving here after dark on Friday and Saturday nights especially is risking your life. Leeward Highway any time of day or night is treated like a speedway, please slow down.
