jayhfx 0 #1 August 18, 2005 A local skydiver who was with us for the summer has passed on to the bluest of skies. Tyler aged 25 lost his life on August 14 in a double murder. Apparently he lost his life protecting his friend. His memorial was a testament to how much this sport meant to him. All of us here at the Atlantic School of Skydiving here in Nova Scotia will miss him and the community at large has lost a good one. Condolences can be sent to his family at www.rawalker.ca. peace jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I've read here, he was highly thought of and was a class act. I hate hearing things like this. As for the guy who killed him... I hope, they fry his ass! Y'all take care and thanks for letting us know and keep us posted. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KindredSpirit 0 #11 August 18, 2005 I remember seeing him at the dz. I wish I could have made it to the wake and funeral. I'll have to do a jump for him. "Kicking gravity's ass since 2003!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
