BABY BOY ROMAN ROBERT ANDERSON
(7-27-2009)

Tyra and baby Roman went Home to be with the Lord on Monday, July 27th. She will hold her baby forever in the arms of Jesus. She spent most of her life caring for children, and realized her dreams of having a family, being married to Kyle Fredrick Anderson on September 8th, 2007, and having baby Roman Robert. Tyra and Roman are survived by loving husband and father, Kyle and his son Andrew; her brothers and families; Riven and Ari and children Austin and Aubrie; Pine and Julie and children Josie, Jenna, Ellie, and Preston; Cylas and Kylie and child Ava; Kyle's brother, Thaddeus; her parents Norm and Jan Engeland; Kyle's parents, Bob and Vicki Anderson; her grandmother, Barbra Engeland; Kyle's grandparents, Pauline Anderson, and Ken and Jo Ann Shears; many wonderful friends and loved ones; and all the beautiful children she cared for in her life. Tyra grew up on Toroda Creek in Curlew with her three brothers and many good friends. Tyra was baptized in Jesus in the Kettle River in 1987. She began caring for other children at a young age and was aunt "Ty Ty" to seven nephews and nieces. She graduated from Curlew High School in 2000, and moved to Spokane living with each of her brothers at various times. She and her husband felt love at first sight on October 30th, 2005. Tyra spent her professional career working for a company that cares for children with disabilities since March of 2006. She mothered a beautiful boy that is the tallest baby in their family. Roman was a very active baby throughout the pregnancy and was most active at night. He was baptized before his passing and now walks with his mother in heaven with the Lord. If you feel the need to give, her family asks that it go towards charities for children.

"Tyra, we love you more than you'll ever know"
