Dear Hyde, you are the love of my life, and you always will be. Nothing can stop the love that I feel for you, no barrier can ever stop me from loving you. You are my soulmate and I truly feel that a piece of me is missing. It has truly been an honor to know you, to love you and to be loved by you. You taught me and so many others so much. You showed me that I could open up to people, that I could be vulnerable. You helped me grow into a better version of myself. You encouraged me, you helped me to be proud of my accomplishments. You showed me that life is worth living. It is hard to imagine life without you. It's hard to say goodbye. But I know that we will meet again. We will see each other again someday. Please wait for me my love. To Hydes family, please know that my love for him extends to you, especially Janice and Brenna. He loved you, and I know he would want me to love you, too. I wish you nothing but love and healing. I will try to continue to spread the love that he gave to me, to make the world a better place, just as he made mine. Rest easy my love.

I'm always super bad with words but Hyde you meant so much to everyone here. You were always such a thoughtful and kind person and it doesn't feel real sometimes that you are no longer with us. Its horrible to say goodbye but I know you are resting well in an awesome place with all of your little rat boys. You always made me want to be myself and feel proud of that. Thank you Hyde.

Hyde Nothing I could say would put into words how I feel. You were someone that can't be described. You had a way of finding common ground with anyone. You were a beam of light in the lives of everyone who knew you. There is nobody that could match your level of passion for the things you cared about. You adored your pets so much. Both Gremlin and Bambi were so important to you. And your rats, how much you loved them. You advocated so much for the proper care of such small delicate creatures. I know you are so happy to be reunited with your boys and are watching closely over the ones that are still here with the living. Your art has always been such an inspiration to me. I'm sure you can see it come through in my own drawings. I was so honored to draw for you and even more honored when you drew for me. I cherish that sketch so closely. So many people admire your work and I will always continue to. That sense of humor. I don't think anyone could go without mentioning it. You were never without a joke, even in times of hardship and sadness. You made everyone happy and you made me cry many times and laugh until my body hurt. I am so happy to have known you, and to be a part of your close knit circle of friends. It feels so hard to say goodbye, but I know you don't want us to be sad. Rest well Hyde, I know you're having a blast right now. I love you. I'll see you again soon.

Words wont ever do me justice, Hyde was such a light in my life and in so many others. Everytime we talked, it was something so special. He was a remarkable person, Ive never met anyone like her. I hope she is at peace, she is so loved.

Not a day in my life where I'm not thankful I got to meet Hyde. I'd always smile seeing him enter a conversation, knowing that he'd be packing the best jokes or reactions. I've always appreciated his kindness and patience whenever I'd make mistakes, and learning about all the wonderful ways to view life as a whole. A fantastic friend, pet owner, artist and person. I'll always carry him in my memories and I hope he's resting well with his beloved rats. See you in the next life man🐀 🖤💜🧡

Hyde, you were always such a beacon of light, even during the hardest times. Your boundless energy and fun attitude always brought a smile to my face. You loved many people and animals so deeply, and I'll always remember your kindness. I hope wherever you are now, you're at peace. I love you so much. I'll see you again one day.

Hyde was one of the kindest and insightful people I've ever met. His tenacity, open-mindedness, and imagination continue to inspire me to this day. I will forever miss philosophizing with her about the universe, talking about each other's original stories, geeking out over music, or excitedly talking about our shared passions and medias. As a friend - to both animals and humans - Hyde was one of the best. He was so loyal, so kind, and so fair. She never made sacrifices when it came to helping or supporting friends, or taking care of his fur babies. Lastly... Hyde's humor was UNMATCHED! She'd think of and say the funniest things in a split second. His quips were always so unique and out of left field that it made his jokes 10 times funnier. I'm going to really miss his ray of sunshine in my life. Hyde, I'm going to miss you even more than I already do. I hope you're having a blast with your rattie boys discovering what's on the other side! Thank you for being in my life, I am so grateful. You made me more comfortable in my own skin, in my own head. No one can replace you. ♥

Thank you Hyde for being such a good friend to me. You made such a difference in the lives of everyone you touched. I miss your wisdom, your humor, your compassion. I miss how easily you could light up a room. I miss how passionate you were about everything and everyone you cared about. I miss you. I love you. I am so grateful and so privileged that I had you in my life.
