i cannot express the sorrow and grief i feel due to the accident. i was the other driver involved. i also have children about the same age and all i could do is hug them and tell them they could not be loved by anyone more than me. i'm sure you were the same. i tear up every day when i think of the accident. tyler seems like me in my days growing up. i played sports (moto cross, football and wrestling). i worked as soon as i was legal, even before, doing farm work and any jobs i could find. i studied engineering at osu. i have, though currently expired, my private pilot vfr license. it seems were are very similar. i know we will probably never meet but your family will always have a deep and sacred part of my heart. God bless you and may He give you the strength and guidance to navigate through these current and the future times when trying to understand this tragedy.

My heart goes out to the Kuhn family during this time. Tyler was in my graduating class and even though I only really got to know him senior year, I am greatly blessed for the time God gave me with him. Tyler was one of the funniest and most optimistic people I knew, and would brighten my day every day. I'm really sorry I couldn't be there physically, but Tyler and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers all week. He influenced everyone in such a positive way and was loved by everyone, and I will never forget what a wonderful life Tyler lived. May God bless you and grant you His peace.

I worked with Tyler at Taco Bell and there are no words I can say that you haven't already heard...the only words I can think of is Thank-You. It sounds unusual but you brought a very special young man into the world that had a major impact on our lives. He will be missed. Once again, Thank-you!

Tim & Barb, my sincere sympathy to you and your family. As a parent myself I can only imagine the the sadness you're going through. I hope what I have to say next will help your grief a little bit. People have often said...I would feel a little more at ease if I only knew that he/she didn't suffer prior to passing on. If that's true for you id like you to know that I was at the scene literally seconds after the accident occured. When I checked Tyler he had already passed so I prefer to believe he did not suffer any pain at all. My thoughts and prayers are w/you and your family.

It is with great sadness that I offer the entire KUHN family and all of Tyler's many friends my most sincere condolences and deepest sympathy. The loss of a loved one is painful but the loss of one's child is both extremely tragic and a very emotional journey! My thoughts are with all of you during this diffcult time. It is obvious Tyler was very well thought of, loved and respected by so many, especially his peers. Seeing his fellow students & friends place R.I.P TJK on their vehicles has been very moving and I hope offers you some comfort in knowing TYLER is being honored and remembered within our community so well.

Dear Kuhn family,
My daughter Charity worked with Tyler and I was in Taco Bell a week ago and met him. Our hearts go out to you all and we are praying for you. We lost a daughter eight years ago also in a seemingly senseless accident. Jenny would be just Tyler's age. So we know what you are going through. May the God of peace be with you. Betsy Brown

To the Kuhn Family,
You have our deepest sympathy during this difficult time. We remember Tyler when he was in grade school and hung out with our nephew Jacob and later when he became a good friend of our daughter Megan. We will especially remember Senior year homecoming when Tyler, Megan and friends had dinner at our home. Tyler was always so happy and full of life. He would always roll down the window and wave when you passed him in the car and he always made you smile. Our hearts break for your family. Tyler was a wonderful young man who will always be remembered, loved and greatly missed. Please let us know if there is anything we can do.

Kuhn family....words cannot express how sorry I am, my heart is aching for all of you. Tyler was such a great friend to everyone. Garry & I were looking through pictures, remembering the great times we spent together during baseball season. We remember that deep voice cheering words of encouragement to his friends from the dugout. He was the best centerfielder, no doubt. Just thinking about all those awesome diving catches he would make, and hands down the best bunter on the team. He had a huge heart that was full of love for everyone, you should be so very proud of the wonderful son that you raised. Just an all around wonderful kid who we can't wait to see one day in heaven. Love you all so much, if you need anything, we are hear for you. Hugs, kisses and prayers...Garry, Danielle & Zach Weaver.
