Charles Tyler Obituary
Charles C Tyler Jr., 66, of Stratford died March 10th, 2024, at the VA Medical Center, where he was given consistent, compassionate care by Clinician Tracey Shamas and her staff. He was the youngest son of the late Charles and Mildred (Charney) Tyler, born and raised in the North End of Bridgeport, where he had lasting friendships with his childhood friends, supporting him until his death.
Charlie attended Blackham School, Central High School South and then enlisted in the US Navy. For many years he worked for his friend at McLaughlin Landscaping; the last 10 years working for Westport Star Taxi which he loved. He was a true Yankee fan and was happiest during baseball season. Walking the nature trails, antique car shows, Rock and roll, and the Blues were some of his favorite things. He is survived by his sister Kathleen Delucia, brother Ronald (Connie-Jo) Tyler, Niece Michelle (Chad) Hudnall, grandnephew Ramsey Lucas Hudnall, "Fav. Cuz" Rick Levine, and best friend and partner for 20 yrs. Shelley Trudeau.

I will always remember the good times we had in Florida! As usual I always got in trouble no matter where I lived! I didn´t know that you were a squid, thought that you joined the Army! My whole family was Navy. Hats off to you buddy and a firm salute to your send off bro!
