Beginning today the RTD has a three-part profile about Tyler Binsted and his family, about one year after his tragic murder in Byrd Park. The first article focuses on the family and how they’ve dealt with the loss of a son and brother. Here is poignant reflection from Tyler’s twin, Seth, on the grieving process:

“Time carries you away from Tyler. You’re at the mercy of something. You’re at the mercy of your ability to remember Tyler. And it’s kind of a helpless feeling,” his brother said. “I mean, all that you have now are memories. So it goes without saying that things are forgotten. And every day you ask yourself what are the things that you’ve forgotten — because there are things that aren’t there anymore. There are things that are gone.

“So I think, in a way, time doesn’t act as a healing property. It’s more of an erosion.”
