Tyler Edward Parten

West Point, 2007

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by David Smith on September 25, 2009:

I still remember a little boy with dancing eyes at church camp coming up to me with a closed mouth only to reveal a lizard's tail slowly slip out between his lips as he tried not to laugh. I should have known that when his mouth was closed, it was to hide the mischief inside. Our family was honored to be personal friends of the entire Parten family. We still cherish the memories of all of the years at camp and the vacation that we spent together in St Louis. We will truly miss Tyler as we all lost one of the best that America had to offer. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are constant for your entire family. We love all of you guys.
