💔Got a message for all drivers out there rolling tonight.
Our brother Tyler Kruppe has made his final run and parked his rig for the last time.
He’s headed westbound on Heaven’s highway now — hauling grain down roads with no end, where the tanks stay full, the skies stay clear, and the chrome always shines.
Tyler was the kind of driver this industry never forgets.
Always willing to help another hand.
Always there to fill the boredom at bunge
Always a snap away from instructions to a place you’ve never been
Always the guy who could make you laugh no matter how long or hard the day had been.
A staple at the truck shows, Tyler was one of those people you just expected to see — standing around trucks, racing the rig, sharing stories, laughing with buddies, and living the trucking life to the fullest.
And now, alongside all the heartbreak, comes news of a little life he helped create — a piece of Tyler that will keep living on in this world.
Lord, wrap your arms around his family, his friends, and especially his girlfriend and unborn baby during this unimaginable time. Give them strength for the hard miles ahead, comfort for the heavy days, and reminders that Tyler’s love will always ride beside them.
Tyler, thank you for the miles you drove, the laughs you shared, the kindness you showed, and the memories made at elevators, fuel islands, truck shows, and long stretches of highway.
You may be out of sight, Driver…
but you’ll never be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
We’ve got it from here. ❤️
