TYLER ARNOLD BROUILLARD

BRIDPORT — Tyler Arnold Brouillard, 25, of Bridport went to be with his Lord and Savior in the early hours of Dec. 25, 2023, due to injuries received from an automobile accident. Tyler was born on July 28, 1998, in Middlebury, Vt.

Like so many others, Tyler struggled with a severe anxiety disorder. Despite his anxiety, he loved deeply and created laughter all around him. His friends found him to be a great listener and someone to lean on. Within the last two years, Tyler had begun to set goals and was heading in a positive direction. He became closer to family and friends. Tyler was furthering his education and considering joining the military.

Tyler was developing into a fine young man, and he had started his journey with Jesus. We are forever thankful for that. Tyler found comfort and happiness in the kitchen, where he cooked many wonderful meals for his family and friends. Tyler also enjoyed fishing, online gaming with friends, ATV riding, golf, basketball and baseball. Tyler was loved by so many. Our hearts are broken, but we take comfort in knowing that he is reunited with his father Marcel, who we lost in Jan 2000.

Tyler is survived by his parents, Jason and Becky Barnes; his brother, Alex Barnes (Hailey Hadsell); his grandparents, Donna Brouillard, Connie and Arnold Fox, Charlotte Barnes and Raymond and Barbara Grant Jr.; and so much family and extended family and friends.

Tyler was pre-deceased by his biological father, Marcel J. Brouillard; his grandfather “Pepe” Guy Brouillard, and his grandfather Raymond Barnes.

A celebration of Tyler’s life was held on Jan 6, at The Victory Baptist Church in Vergennes.

A private burial will take place at a later date.

Donations can be made to Victory Baptist Church, 862 Route 7 in Vergennes; Bridport Fire Department; Townline First Response, 125 Crown Point Road, Bridport; or any charity of your choice. ◊
