Tyler J Stevenson
May 21, 1990 – January 23, 2011

By Mark Stevenson
Seven years ago our 20-year old son, Tyler, passed away from SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) and we found ourselves in the unimaginable situation having to communicate with the coroner’s office, take care of the funeral arrangements, the life insurance, remove his name from junk mailing lists, place notices with credit bureau agencies, etc.
