Gideon Alexander Lyner was born sleeping in the arms of Jesus on November 19, 2025, at Floyd Medical Center, the cherished son of Hayley Lyner and Lee Lyner. Though his time was short, the impact of his presence was profound, and left a mark on the hearts of those who dreamed of his future.
He is survived by his mother, Hayley Lyner; his father, Lee Lyner; his 4 siblings, Noah, Emorie, Ivy, and Indie; his grandparents, Van and Lisa Elicker, Julie and Micky Storey, and Scott Lee Lyner; his great grandparents, Gwen and Greg Gordon; and a host of aunts, uncles and cousins.
In his fleeting moment on earth, he was deeply loved and brought immeasurable joy to his family. He was preceded in death by his great grandparents, Virginia Lee Allen, Mary Ruth Elicker, and Wayne Jack Elicker; his great-great grandparents, Helen and Edward Smallwood; and his great aunt, Katie Pritchett.
There are no formal services planned at this time. In honor of Gideon's memory, let us hold our loved ones a little closer, speak words of kindness and love, and remember that every life, no matter how brief, has the power to leave a lasting impression on our world. Gideon Alexander Lyner, our angel born sleeping, will forever be remembered and loved.
