Tyler Somerville

January 28, 2000 ~
May 28, 2022

On Saturday, May 28, 2022, Tyler Jacob Somerville passed away unexpectedly at the age of 22. Tyler was born in Jenison, Michigan, on January 28, 2000, to Kathryn (Katie) Deanna McCan, surprising everyone by arriving two months before his due date. In 2008, Katie and Tyler moved to Mississippi, where he attended the Pearl Public School District and graduated from the high school in 2019. Tyler had a passion for music. He was a talented guitarist, singer, and above all, percussionist. He participated in the PHS drumline, both marching and competitive, since he was just 12 years old. He excelled on the marching tenor drums. He was also a self-taught guitarist who never missed a chance to provide a guitar-strum for singalongs at family gatherings. In 2020, Tyler relocated to Nashua, New Hampshire, where he found a new community of friends and loved ones. He leaves behind his loving mother, Katie; stepfather, Darren (Pink) McCan; and three stepsiblings, Seth, Bennett, and Macee; as well as his long-term girlfriend, Brandi Schiavo. He will be sorely missed by his many grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. A memorial service will be held on Friday, June 10, 2022, at 2 p.m. at Matthysse Kuiper DeGraaf Funeral Home (Grandville) 4145 Chicago Dr. SW. A luncheon will follow the service. Relatives and friends can visit with the family on Friday from 1-2 p.m. prior to the service at the funeral home.
