After four years at the prestigious Pine Forge Academy, where he was a star athlete (basketball) and graduated, he went on to join the Air Force. While on assignment in Rome, Italy, Tyro met his future wife, Anna Donati.

He continued his career, working on Maxwell as a Civilian Administrator in Logistics. Tyro loved to take care of his garden, enjoyed the company of his grandchildren, and to plan elaborate meals with his wife, especially during Thanksgiving and Christmas.
