On March 26, 2026, we unexpectedly lost a devoted father, husband, and son, Tyler Allan Draper (3/10/90 – 3/26/26).

Tyler was a man defined by resilience. A 2008 graduate and passionate athlete in football, cross country, and wrestling, he carried that competitive spirit into every challenge life brought his way.

Years ago, Tyler survived a near-fatal motorcycle accident and fought his way back from severe head trauma, determined to be there for his young son. He rebuilt his life with strength and purpose, working as a tow truck driver at Stanislaus Towing and proving his determination every single day.

Recently, Tyler was in a season of pure joy—remarried just three weeks ago and a proud, loving father to his 7-month-old daughter.

His family was his world. Tyler loved deeply, lived fully, and left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.

💙 Please join us in honoring Tyler 💙
📅 April 25, 2026
📍 Assembly of God Church
1900 California Street, Escalon, CA

A tow truck procession will be included in his celebration.
For procession details, please contact Ron Hannink at 209-595-7700.

Tyler’s strength, love, and legacy will never be forgotten.
