In loving memory of Tyrone Earl Garner April 20, 1961-August 9, 2025. Tyrone, a beloved Husband, Son, Father, Brother, Papa, Uncle, and Brother-in-law laid to rest peacefully in his home on August 9, 2025, at the age of 64. Tyrone was born on a United States Airforce base in the county of West Suffolk, England to his loving parents Peggy and Herbert Garner. Tyrone lived a life with resilience, lots of laughter, kindness, and a great love for those close to him. He was a proud father to his children Trey, Gracie, Maddie and Raeni, also a proud Papa to his Grandson Taj. Tyrone loved nothing more than to be surrounded by his family and close friends. Throughout his life Tyrone always had a strong work ethic. At times he would be working two jobs to ensure his family was taken care of. He had a love for working at restaurants as he worked at several restaurants throughout his life. He also had a 28 year career at Cub Foods as a meat wrapper, where he met life-long friends and his wife Christine. His fun loving personality and zest for life made him unforgettable to those who got to know him. Tyrone had several pleasures in life. Those included collecting an enormous amount of sneakers, shopping at Polo Ralf Lauren, reading magazines, riding his motorcycle, going to the movies, perusing high end new and used car lots, watching and playing various sports, watching his favorite television shows, listening to music and his joy for singing along to his favorite music was unmatched. Tyrone is survived by his Wife Christine Wren, Mother Peggy Garner, Children Trey Hamilton-Garner, Gracie Hamilton-Garner, Maddie Hodapp, and Raeni Garner, Grandson Taj Smith, Sister Michelle Garner-Wagner, Sister Donna Garner, and all his loving Nieces and Nephews. Reunited in rest with his Father Herbert Garner, Brother Herbert Garner Jr., and Nephew Charles Garner. A celebration of life will be held on August 29, 2025 at 3pm, with visitation staring at 1pm, at the Washburn-McReavy Coon Rapids Chapel, 1827 Coon Rapids Blvd, where friends and family will gather to honor Tyrone's memory, share stories, and carry forward the love and laughter he gave so freely. There will be a reception following the service. Tyrone's legacy is one of strength, joy and happiness. It is a reminder to live life to the fullest and love deeply. You will be missed deeply but will live on in our hearts forever. Until we meet again, rest in peace Tyrone, we love you!
