I would love to speak of my friendship with Tyrec. He inspired me as I inspired him with our conversations together. I will miss him deeply.
Tyrec was like a brother to me he always made sure I was happy. He always had my back. He was always there for me. We’ve been friends since we were in kindergarten and I loved getting to talk to home and hang out with him. I will forever miss you brother and love you
To my handsome and truly amazing son I love u to the moon and back u will truly be missed hugs and kisses till we meet again
I’m Tyrec’s Aunt sorry for you list me he rest in place
Tyrec was one of my great friends. We had so many amazing memories and always made sure his friends were smiling. I’m happy I got to know him throughout the years
I’m the boyfriend of his sister and I wish I could’ve met this man. The way she reacted worrying about her brother was something that showed me her love for him.
Tyrec was a very special young man, with a smile that could light up a room. He is greatly loved and missed.
I will truly miss Tyrec. It was a blessing to know him one of the most respectable young men I know. There was never a event or holiday that he missed calling me on. Even when I would chastise him, he would simply say I’m sorry mom and promise to do better. Fly high son. Love you
I miss you bestfriend I will always be with you in my prayers. You was always there the last time I seen you was 3 days b4 you passed and I gave you like 8 popsicles and you was walking and we had a chat about things I’ll miss that day
Tyrec was an incredible young man. Every time he would walk through the doors of the Washington Library, he would always have a smile on his face that was immediately contagious. He was always willing to lend a hand and his kindness was appreciated. Heaven is a much more colorful place now. I will miss him. May he Rest In Peace and God Bless his family.
Pam I am praying God gives u comfort in your time of sorrow!!!
Prayers and hugs for all who loved Tyrec. He rode my bus several years. His smile, hugs and big wave will be missed❤️
I will never forget how he would carry my son around telling everyone that Moses was his baby. He made me laugh even on my darkest days. Tyrec lit up the room with his beautiful smile and amazing personality. Tyrec was and will always be remembered and my toddler will hear stories about tyrec as he grows. They loved each other so much. My heart breaks for everyone that has lost him. I’d give just about anything to be able to tell him I love him again. I love you tyrec and Rest In Peace sugar baby. You will always be one of my kids.
I am the sister of KingDavid Thomas and although I don’t know Talia’s brother he sounds like a very special young man and by the comments of his family he did great things. Praise God for this mans life and journey that he had on this earth. I am sorry for the families loss and I know God will comfort them in their healing process.
Prayers, Peace and Strength to Pamela and the Family and he will NEVER be forgotten!!! My 3 kids had some years around him and it was mostly good times..He would always make many smile, sweet kind heart and just would have givin you anything he had if you needed it RIL
Much Love Tyrec

I miss my brother tyrec. We grew up together and right now I’m trying not to cry right now because I love him since we were young. He supported me like I did him. He was funny, passionate, and creative. I wish I can see him again and hug him and told him I love him one more time. I love him and really miss my big brother. I can’t wait to see him again one day. I love you brother
I am the father of Tyrec Nance & yes, my son will truly be missed. Eventhough we didn’t see eye to eye on things, he knew I loved him no matter what. It pains me to know that he was gone to soon & didn’t get a chance to experience life and enjoy it. Tyrec was more than just my son, but he was my best friend

I work at the Fayetteville Public Library, and Tyrec would come chat with my co-workers and I almost every day. We loved seeing him and will miss him.
Tyrec was a beautiful soul with that strived to put a smile on everyone’s face. We love and miss you Tyrec, forever and always.
Pam I am sorry for your loss. Tyrec was such a bright respectful young man. He was always such a help when I needed it. He will be missed. Pam I will pray for comfort for you
Tyrec would always stop and chat with us at the Fayetteville Public Library’s Help Desk. We will all miss his smile and spirit. My prayers are with his family.
Tyrec was a very loving and caring young man that I got to know while working for Fayetteville Public Schools. He always would find me and give me a hug and sit down with me during lunch and I was so appreciative that he had so much respect for me as the lunch lady of his school. Heaven as gained an amazing angel and may you forever Rest In Peace.
