Father of 5 shot in July laid to rest by mourning family
Tyler Applegate is being remembered as a fun-loving father who would do anything for his family.
The 27-year-old was taken to hospital after being shot at his home on 33rd Street on July 22. He died Aug. 10, becoming Saskatoon’s third homicide victim of 2017.
Family and friends began his wake Wednesday on an invitation-only basis, many crying as his open casket was brought into the hall.
“A parent shouldn’t have to bury his child,” said Tyler’s father, Jim.
