Luke Morgan Tyler’s Family Releases Statement

WOODINVILLE, WA – As we are preparing for Luke Tyler’s Celebration of Life, we continue to be grateful for the immense outpouring of support and love for our family, as well as the recognition of the impact on the many lives that Luke touched.  Luke’s suicide is a tremendous loss of life, love and potential that we continue to grieve.   

We are continuing to work with the authorities to determine how in a short 4 months during his first semester at WSU, Luke went from a positive, compassionate, and kind young man to having a depression so deep that caused him to take his own life. He had shared with close friends that he was at his breaking point due to hazing at Theta Chi, and we look forward to learning the truth about his experience.     

To honor his life and recognize the kindness he spread in the world, the family asks that you consider donations to “The Luke Tyler Memorial Scholarship Fund” at Sail Sand Point to enable other children to learn to sail and love the water the way Luke did.  

You can also find his obituary here Luke Morgan Tyler’s Obituary – Woodinville, WA | Ever Loved, which gives you more insight on the amazing human Luke was, and the light & life he brought to those around him.

Regards,
John & Colleen Tyler, Luke’s parents
