As a fellow classmate of his i just wish i got the chance to see him just one more time. R.I.P Tyson!!! love and miss you bunches
I was Tyson’s art teacher at Sisseton High School. Tyson was a very talented young man. He was a good student, creative and hard working. His paper-Mache sculpture of the “Pit bull dog” was one my favorite works of arts. I feel privileged to have known this fine young man.

Our prayers are with you through this difficult time, please accept our condolences.
sorry for your loss
me and tyson kinda grew up together… he’ll be missed by a lot… i’m graduating high school and going to college for arts and design with an associates degree… since he never got the chance, this is my motivation to go for it, just for him.
I was Tyson’s Math Teacher at Sisseton High School. Tyson was a great kid & was always willing to help others & put in extra time to complete a goal. He made us all proud when he was interviewed on the news and shared his desire to graduate from high school. He will be greatly missed.
I knew Tyson for only a year. We started off as friends then I fell in love with him. I will always love him and that will never change. I miss you, Tyson, I wish this never happened.

This one time Jolene and I had to stop next door and Jolene went in to see Gma Kate or something and she had asked Tyson why he was awake and he said he had to have a cup of warm milk before he went to sleep. She and I couldn’t stop laughing for the longest time. Crazy guy could make anyone smile with his crazy personality.
