Tyler Quidgeon Obituary

Steinhatchee, Fla. - Tyler Jacob Quidgeon, 20, died of natural causes unexpectedly at home, Sunday, Aug. 19, 2018.

He held several service related jobs at Mohegan Sun Casino Resort during summer breaks while attending school.

Tyler was a loving, giving and athletic young man. He will be remembered for his generous spirit, always putting others before himself. He had a love and respect for many sports, including basketball, track and football. His dream was to one day play for the Florida State Seminoles.

Above all, Tyler was a loving son, brother, grandson, nephew and cousin to many.

Lord, at the moment nothing seems to be able to help the loss I feel.
My heart is broken and my spirit mourns.
All I know is that Your grace is sufficient.
This day, this hour
Moment by moment
I choose to lean on You,
For when I am at my weakest Your strength is strongest.
I pour out my grief to You
And praise You that on one glorious day
When all suffering is extinguished and love has conquered
We shall walk together again.
