Dear Gail,
My deepest sympathies for you in the passing of Tyrone. I have known Tyrone since, at least, first grade at St. Mary’s Catholic School and always found him to be a good and trusted friend. I like everyone else in the “Ziegel Circle” will miss him deeply.
The world is definitely quieter without Tyrone, but Heaven has gone up a notch in “rocking & rolling.”
Our prayers are with you always.
God Bless,
Roger & Cheryl
Dear Gail — I am so saddened to learn of Tyrone’s untimely passing. I knew from Janet and John that he was ill, but did not expect the end to come so soon. I feel so sad for you. Through the years I’ve always heard of “Tyrone and Gail” — like “peanut butter and jelly”! Tyrone was such a good friend to my brother. He will be sorely missed but fondly remembered by all who were lucky enough to call him “friend”. My thoughts are with you. ~ Katie

Gail I am so sorry for your loss and your family’s loss. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
Tyrone was always “the cool uncle” he always made us laugh or turn our heads to the things he would say. I always enjoyed visiting him and Gail and I absolutely love their energy and hunger for life traveling, collecting and generosity. I will always miss him and think of him always. We love you Tyrone
I worked with Tyrone at the phone company, warehouse and repair service. He trained me at construction and scared the crap out of me. Everything was going to kill or mame me. It wasn’t that bad. He had a way of getting people to like him even though he seemed rough.. He was someone I’ll always remember and talk about. I’m sorry he he had to go too soon. I send sympathies.
