Obituary For Tyler Hinson
It is with deep sorrow and profound love that we announce the passing of Tyler Anderson Hinson, who departed this world on October 4, 2026, after a valiant and brief battle with cancer. Tyler, born on September 19, 1985, in Memphis, Tennessee, was a beacon of joy, laughter, and generosity to everyone he encountered.
Tyler was the beloved son of Allan and Peg Hinson, who have preceded him in death, leaving behind a legacy of kindness and compassion that Tyler carried throughout his life. He is survived by his adoring wife, T'Calla, whom he married on November 11, 2022. Their union was a testament to true friendship and mutual respect, each making the other a better person through their loving and caring relationship.
Tyler was a devoted father to his daughters, Avianna Elizabeth Monroe Hinson, Salem Elaine Denise Hinson, and Riley Neil Hinson, his daughter from a previous marriage (mother, Amber) all who brought immense joy to his world. His life was further enriched by his sister, Elaina (Chip) Cayce; his nephews, Zach and Dalton (Samantha) Cayce; his brother, Patrick (Jennifer) Hinson; his nephew, Joseph Morrison; and his nieces, Samantha Plunk, Madalyn (Hunter) Huffman, Bailey (Jackson) Hinson and Lynley Hinson. He also had two great-nephews, Greyson and Owen Huffman, and two great-nieces, Gracie Cayce and Ada McCrady (coming in January 2027). He is also survived by numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and many devoted friends. His best friend, Marcus Upchurch (who preceded him in death), shared countless cherished memories with him, particularly with the Memphis Mustangs Club, where they spent weekends in younger days.
Tyler was a man of many talents and passions. His last professional chapter was at Glory Global Solutions, where he found joy and camaraderie with his colleagues. Beyond work, he was a fervent sports enthusiast, ever faithful to the Titans and an avid fan of the Grizzlies and Memphis Tigers basketball teams. Bowling was another of his cherished pastimes, where he found community and fun.
His heart was as vast as his interests. Known for his big heart and generous spirit, Tyler was the kind of person who would give the shirt off his back to those in need. With a great sense of humor and an innate desire to befriend everyone he met, he left an indelible mark on all who knew him.
As we remember Tyler, we hold on to the special message from his family:
“Tyler was loved beyond words and will be missed beyond measure.” His spirit will live on in the hearts of those who loved him and in the memories we cherish.
The family will receive friends Saturday, October 10, 2026 from 1:00pm-1:55pm with a Celebration of Life to follow at 2:00pm both will be held at RS Lewis & Sons Funeral Home 3651 Austin Peay Hwy, Memphis, TN 38127

There are moments in life when words seem inadequate to express the depth of sorrow we feel. The passing of Tyler Hinson is one of those moments. His life ended far too soon, leaving behind a family whose hearts are forever changed by his absence.
Tyler was more than a name or a memory. He was a husband, a father, a loved one, and an important part of a family that will continue to carry his memory forward. His presence touched the lives of those who knew and loved him, and although his earthly journey has ended, the love he shared will remain.
My heart is especially heavy for my niece and for Tyler's three beautiful daughters, who must now navigate life without his physical presence. As a family, we will surround them with love, prayer, strength, and support. We will remind his daughters of their father, speak his name, share his memories, and help ensure that the love he had for them remains a meaningful part of their lives.
Grief reminds us just how precious life is. We often believe there will always be another day, another conversation, another embrace, or another opportunity to say, "I love you." Tyler's passing reminds us to cherish the people God has placed in our lives and never take the gift of time for granted.
As we mourn, I find comfort in my faith. Scripture reminds us in Psalm 34:18 that "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." In the days ahead, I pray that God will draw especially close to Tyler's wife, his daughters, his family, and everyone whose heart is grieving.
Tyler, your time with us was much shorter than any of us would have chosen, but your life mattered. Your daughters are part of your legacy, and through them, through the memories shared by those who loved you, and through the lives you touched, a part of you will continue forward.
May God grant you eternal rest and give all of us the strength to endure the days ahead.
Rest peacefully, Tyler. You will be remembered, you will be missed, and you will remain forever a part of our family's story.
With love, sympathy, and continued prayers!
