Tyler Floyd, age 22, of Hickory, NC, went home to be with his Lord and Saviour on Sunday, August 4, 2019 at Catawba Valley Medical Center in Hickory. He was born on January 22, 1997 in Catawba County, the son of Glenn Allen Floyd, Jr. and Kellie Rudisill Roark.
Tyler was a very loving person who enjoyed making people laugh. He never met a stranger, and would give you the shirt off his back and his last dollar. The light of his life was his little sister, Sissy. He was a blessing to others when you were trying to be a blessing to him. He was a special gift of a person. He was a member of Catawba Valley Muscle, and a Cheesehead and loved his Packers. He was often found picking on others about their teams. He loved to cook, and taught himself to play acoustical guitar. He will be greatly missed. He already is.
He was preceded in death by stepfather, Luther Roark; grandmother, Linda Travis Floyd; and several great-grandparents.
Survivors include his mother, Kellie Roark; sister, Olivia Roark; father, Glen Allen Floyd; grandparents, Hank and Rebecca Rudisill; grandfather, Glenn Alan Floyd Sr., and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, August 9, 2019, at 1:00 p.m. at the Community Baptist Church, 5262 Whitener Road, Hickory, NC 28602, with Rev. Eddie Reynolds and Rev. Derrick Holland officiating.
The family will receive friends at the church on Thursday, August 8, 2019, from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
