His mother Deanna Stentiford said,
"I didn't believe it, I thought he was playing a trick on me."
Tyler Stentiford says,
"I'd played other instruments in my life, but I'd never really loved an instrument before and I just loved playing."
Tyler plays charity events at various venues in Ocala, but he's also a published author.
