Missy Pallop hasn't added a story.
Hi, My name is Missy, I was Tykes older, bossy sister. Tyke was born not even 2 years after me, I do not remember life without him. I am only now learning to live that way. Tyke was a vibrant, fun loving, and kind boy. He loved tractors, entertaining and playing outdoors.Tyke worked on the family farm and in construction as well as other jobs, he loved being busy and productive. He was also funny, observant and the life of a party. Tyke was always telling great stories and making everyone laugh. | He completed college and became a Corrections Officer, he had just taken his exam to be a State trooper when he had a terrible accident. At 24 his life was forever changed. He suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). From that point forward, many doctors, surgeons, nurses and care givers became his lifeblood. Tyke lost some brain function and was not able to live alone on his own. However he remained the good natured, and funny person he always was. He was physically able to do most things and continued to entertain us with his funny way. He lived for 22 more years after his accident and continued to brighten the lives of everyone he touched. | Tyke loved to dance. I was lucky enough to have Tykes last dance. I was visiting him at the residence that he lived and on that day it just happened that a gentleman was there playing piano. Tyke and I were walking around, and when he heard the music he began to dance. We danced together for several songs, as we had done for years. Tyke died only a few days later. I will always cherish that memory, and remember the amazing life he led.After his passing I felt the need to spread some good in his name. I have started a campaign to do 77 random acts of kindness in Tyke's memory. I am also hoping to give at least 2 scholarships to rural farm kids who want to continue their education after high school. Any donation you give will go directly to one of these ventures.Please help me keep Tyke's light shining, the world needs more happy. Tyke was such a force of fun loving energy and I can only hope to hold a candle to the bonfire of a flame he was. Please donate if you are able, whatever you are able. And if you are not able to donate, then please do a good deed, pay it forward however you wish. Follow my journey @tykeslastdance Thank you!!
