Tyron Bester

It is with hearts full of faith and love that we share the news of Tyron Bester's passing on February 6, 2026, at the age of 34 in College Station, Texas. In God's perfect mercy, through Christ Jesus, he has now received his full and complete healing-free at last from every burden, embraced forever in the arms of his Savior.

Tyron was a radiant Renaissance man whose gifts and creative pursuits seemed endless. After a youth of sun soaked days in South Africa he moved to Texas to set his foundation for adulthood, becoming a master gunsmith, glass blower, culinary artist, drone builder, 3D printing innovator, talented musician and so much more-he approached every craft with wonder, precision, and joy, always eager to create and share; even building a mahogany hammered dulcimer just because he wanted to hear it's song! A true lover of animals-from fins to feathers to fur-he especially found delight in their care. None of these talents shone brighter than the love he poured into his family. Tyron desired to live for his wife and children; he was their rock, their storyteller, their hero-the one who made every moment feel sacred and a bit silly. Few stars shine as brightly as Tyron's spirit and he will be dearly missed on Earth while heartily received in Heaven. His love remains alive in every memory, every laugh, and every lesson he left behind.

To Natolie, her husband Tyron was the perfection of pursuit. From the time they met at age 13, a journey of friendship led to love at age 20 and marriage at age 22. A bond that filled each of their hearts as unconditional love should, they saw each other grow through 12 years of marriage and becoming a family of six.

Tyron is survived by his cherished wife, Natolie Ann Bester; his precious daughters, Amilia Marie Bester (11) and Melanie Raine Bester (6); his beloved sons, Brandon Lee Bester (3) and Cameron Allan Bester (1); his devoted parents, Colin and Noleen Bester; his brother, Duane Bester; and his sister, Vashti Bester Russell; his grandparents, Cherril Allan and Alexander "Sandy" Allan; and his uncle, Allen Bester, and aunts, Bronwyn Allan Edwards and Shelley Allan Jerram. He is now received in heaven by his grandparents, "Opa" Errol and "YiaYia" Marina Bester, as well as his cherished sister-in-law, Danielle Marie Perfitt.

A Funeral Mass to celebrate Tyron's beautiful life and eternal homecoming will be held on what would have been his and Natolie's 35th birthday, Friday, February 27, 2026, at 10:30 a.m. at St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Bryan, Texas. The Mass will be followed by a luncheon at The Made Well House, where Natolie has so lovingly served others, sharing a parking lot with the church. All who knew and loved Tyron are warmly invited to join in this celebration of faith and remembrance.

In lieu of flowers, the family humbly requests donations to support the continued care of his four young children and the sustaining of his widow during this season of profound grief. Gifts may be made through the GoFundMe page created in love for them: https://gofund.me/e7b24cc94. These contributions will help provide stability-covering essentials like rent, bills, and childcare-so Natolie can grieve, heal, and be fully present with her children.

May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. Tyron will forever be remembered for the extraordinary light he carried and shared-now shining fully in the eternal embrace of Christ, where love knows no end.
