I have known the Neuhaus family for 6 years. We met through the game of baseball at New Tampa Little League. My son Jordan played with Ty and Tucker for years. I watched Ty evolve into a great athlete and I imagined that he would someday play in the Major Leagues. He was always respectful and courteous to his family, teammates and coaches. He loved his family and had a unique bond with his brother Tucker. I didn't have much contact with him the last couple of years as he went off to play baseball in Arizona. I did have the pleasure of seeing him again this summer. He was home from school and my son Jordan was preparing for a baseball tournament. Ty volunteered to catch him to help him get ready. He did more than catch him those two days. He was very supportive and instructed him more as a coach than his old pal. I was amazed at the man he had become since he graduated from high school. I have a lot of memories of Ty but those two days will be the ones that I will always remember. Jordan and I will miss you Ty.
