“As many of you are aware, there was an accident that involved Tyler, an avid skateboarder, and a truck. Unfortunately, Tyler did not survive this accident. Tyler died doing what he loved the most. This was not just some skateboarding kid, he was a son to Kevin and Tracey Glowacki, a loving big brother to Olivia and Gavin, grandson, cousin to many and a friend to many Plainfield Central students. Tyler was pronounced dead on August 29, 2021. Tyler’s parents made the choice to donate his organs. We were told that this donation of organs will literally help hundreds of people. Many people have asked to make donations, so we created this GoFundMe. As you can expect, this tragedy has placed an emotional burden on us. His parents have not been to work since the accident and we don’t know when they will return. These donations will help out his family so much. There are not enough words to express our thanks for all the kind words and prayers we have received. Tyler is survived by his Dad Kevin, his Mom Tracey, his little sister Olivia and his little brother Gavin.”
