He was also a longtime employee of the Plant City Community Bingo and dearly loved working with the elderly and being an extended part of that family. He also most recently joined the Publix family as an associate.
Tyler was all about his sports, but his love for basketball came first with football to follow. Seminoles, Chicago Bulls, The Orlando Magic, and the Lakers were his all-time favorites. He shot baskets every night after work and it was no surprise to hear him bouncing a basketball at 3 am on any given night. His love for music was right there at the top of the list with his sports. He loved to master every game through X-Box and made many friendships throughout all his hobbies.
Tyler is survived by his mother, Tonya George and his father, Thomas Broders. His brother Christopher George, sister Misty George Alexander, brother in-law, Trevor Alexander and beloved niece Oceanna George. Preceded in death, he was a deeply loved grandson of James Gardner and Annette Canady Gardner.
