  Ms. STEVENS. Madam Speaker, last week, tragedy struck the South Lyon 
community in Oakland County, Michigan, as we learned of the death of 
Trevon Tyler.
  Just 17 years old, Trevon died from complications following knee 
surgery.
  Trevon was a beloved member of the South Lyon community and a member 
of the South Lyon East High School football team.
  His coach called him ``the nicest, most fun-loving, caring kid.'' He 
``walked with a pretty big pep in his step. He always said hi to 
everybody. Everybody loved him. He was a little bit of a jokester, had 
this big laugh, always made you smile.''
  Trevon's incredible family, friends, classmates, and teammates are 
all heartbroken by his passing. His life was cut tragically short, but 
he will always be remembered by that smile, his laugh, his friendship, 
and his contributions to our community.
  Today, we are called to live our lives more like Tre, with joy and 
love at the forefront.
