Tyler had no strangers. He could make anyone feel welcome. Sell ketchup popsicles to a lady in white gloves. He was kind, funny, and the life of the party.
Tyler loved the outdoors, sitting by a campfire, watching the sunset, cooking, spoiling his niece “Georgia Peach” and nephew Gibson, and was a big dog lover. Those who knew him will miss him profoundly.
His family includes his father, Floyd Hilligoss, sister Katie (Chris) Harley, niece Georgia, nephew Gibson, and dog Bane. His mother, Bobbie Hilligoss, died on November 6, 2019.
