Our Hearts Are in the Cause for Tyler
I met the love of my life in high school. Yvonne and I fell in love and got married after graduating from college in Southern California. In June 2006, we celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary. Our son, Tyler, was 25. Our lives were very good until the month after our anniversary, and one week before Tyler married the love of his life. That's when Tyler was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
