Tyler Sheahan took his own life at the age of 22. What people saw when they met Tyler was a 6-foot-4 young man with a dazzling smile, blue eyes, curly, dark hair, and a chiseled physique painstakingly built with his attention to nutrition and exercise. Tyler would never have agreed with that description. Those who got to know Tyler found him to be sensitive, quirky, funny, warm, thoughtful and introspective. Tyler would have been embarrassed to hear anyone say that about him. He was a caring, nurturing, loving brother to Tucker, and he would have been stunned to hear how much his younger brother looked up to him. We can't remember a time when Tyler and Tucker were at odds about anything. As a son, he made a point every single day to connect with his parents, which sometimes led to silly observations about a variety of subjects, but more often led to deep, meaningful conversations about relationships, his future, or movies. Tyler was a loyal friend who loved hanging out, gaming and going to the gym. He was unfailingly kind to people, because it was in his nature. Deep in his heart, though, from a very young age, was a genuine love and connection to animals. From his first hamster, Cornelius, to his favorite cats, Katie and Oliver, to all of the visitors he encountered in his work at Rhinebeck Animal Hospital, Tyler loved the creatures of the Earth. We have found their names scattered throughout his passwords and logins in the aftermath of his death. We take solace in knowing that he is reunited with all of them right now. What people don't know about Tyler is that he struggled with anxiety and depression for several years, and what we didn't know, in spite of treatment and our open, honest relationship with him, was that it got to the point where the struggle became too much to bear. We are heartbroken that he was so alone in his final moments. We miss him terribly, and we have been overwhelmed by the wave of love and support that has rolled in from the Red Hook community, the Bard College community, the Wappingers Central School District community, and from random people who knew Tyler, even just briefly, and felt compelled to reach out. We're stunned by the impact his passing is having on others. We are hosting two events to memorialize Tyler's life, both to be held at Burnett & White Funeral Home at 7461 South Broadway in Red Hook, N. Y. Calling hours will be offered on Saturday, Dec. 2, from 3-6 p. m. , and a memorial service will be held the next day, Sunday, Dec. 3, at 11 a. m. For those who don't know, Tyler dressed in colorful, comfortable clothing, like hoodies, sweats and silly, loud socks, and in his honor, we are asking anyone attending services on either day to dress casually. Mourners are free to dress in any way they feel appropriate, but we want everyone to know that the family will not be dressed formally, and anything goes. That's the way Tyler would have wanted it. In lieu of flowers, we are asking that donations be made to the Veterinary Care Foundation, in the form of a check, with "In Memory of Tyler Sheahan" in the memo portion. Checks can be mailed or dropped off to: Rhinebeck Animal Hospital6450 Montgomery StreetRhinebeck, NY 12572Tyler's parents, Kelly and Jim, and Tyler's brother, Tucker, will meet with hospital administrators at a later date to determine how Tyler would have wanted those donations spent.Show more
