So sorry to hear of the loss of Mr.Tyson. Him and my Dad worked at the rail road together. Growing up I worked with him at Roses when I was a teenager. Over the years I have enjoyed eating with him at Oak Level and at Hardees at time. He was a sweet man. I know he is at peace and is looking down on all of his family and friends with a beautiful smile. His Journey is over and he is in the arms of our Lord and Savior. God Bless each of you. Kathy Hardy
