Tyler James Smith

A Celebration of Life for Baby Tyler James Smith, of Paradise, Texas, will be held at a later date. 

Tyler James Smith was born on February 17, 2024, in Fort Worth, Texas, to Austin and Kassy (Norman) Smith, and passed away on February 27, 2025, in Fort Worth, Texas. 

Tyler had a love for life that was truly infectious. He enjoyed playing and watching his favorite shows, Bluey and Spiderman. He found great joy in being outdoors, where he loved to look at the trees and laugh at the birds. His playful spirit shone brightest when he was with his family. Tyler cherished the moments spent with his dad, going hunting, and those precious snuggles with his mom.

Despite his brief journey, Tyler touched the lives of many, even those he never met. He was a testament to God's love and grace, fulfilling his God-given purpose by bringing others closer to Him at such a young age. His legacy of joy, love, and faith will continue to inspire those he leaves behind.

Those left to cherish Tyler’s memory are his parents, Austin and Kassy Smith of Paradise, Texas; grandparents, Albert, Jr. and Whitney Smith, Kristi Holloway, and Shane and Pam Norman; great-grandparents, Albert, Sr. and Lynnette Smith, Doug and Diane Norman, Clyde and Carla Deering, Jerry and Dee Bruce, James and Joygale Wiltcher, and Sue Cole; uncles, Justin Smith, Jason Norman, and Zander Norman; and aunts, Kennedy Smith and Rachel Norman.

Tyler is preceded in death by his grandfather, Brett Holloway; great-grandparents, Todd and Dianne McBroom, and James Cole; great-great-grandmother Dorothy Wiltcher; great-uncle, Jason Bruce; and great-aunt, Beth Bruce.
