Tyler Jamison Byrnes, 35, of New Albany, Indiana, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, August 21, 2024. Tyler was an incredible young man who touched the lives of so many with his generosity, kindness, and dedication to his family and community.
An accomplished machinist with American Synthetic Rubber Co., Tyler took great pride in his work, striving for excellence in every project he touched. Before his civilian career, Tyler served his country honorably in the U.S. Navy as a machinist mate, where he cultivated a deep sense of responsibility, precision, and perseverance—qualities that remained with him throughout his life.
While his professional accomplishments were many, Tyler will be remembered most as a loving and devoted family man. The light of his life was his three beautiful daughters, with whom he cherished every moment. Whether playing together, exploring the outdoors, or simply enjoying quiet moments at their New Albany home, Tyler’s greatest joy came from being with his girls.
Tyler's sudden departure leaves an unfillable void in the lives of his family and friends, but his memory will live on through the countless moments of love and laughter he shared. His legacy is one of dedication, love, and strength.
He is survived by his life partner, Lacy Leonard; daughters, Tegan Yarbrough, Juniper Byrnes, and Marlowe Byrnes; mother, Kelli Milliner (Jim); father, Marty Byrnes (Tammy); brothers, Chad Gordon, Brandon Byrnes (Lyndi), Landon Byrnes, and Keaton Byrnes; and a host of extended family members.
