Sheriff Matthew Crisafulli and the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office regretfully announce the passing of former Sheriff William Kenneth Tyler Sr.
Sheriff Tyler served the residents of Worcester County with honor and pride from 1958 – 1966. Sheriff Tyler was first elected in 1958 and re-elected again in 1966. Sheriff Tyler also has the distinction of being the first Sheriff of Worcester County to wear a uniform and have a vehicle.

I'm sorry for the family's loss. I lived across the street from the sheriffs department where he worked and lived. His son was my best friend. His dad was a good man, a good sheriff, and treated the prisoners with respect (the sheriff's office, house, and jail were all in the same building back then). Sheriff Tyler was also the warden for the jail. Wow, times have changed. Sheriff Tyler's professional picture sure brings back memories of him and his family. My condolences to the family. And especially to Chris, if you're reading this. I still live in Snow Hill, and you know who I am.
