William “Tyler” Bickers, age 33, of Hebron, Kentucky, passed away on Friday, June 13, 2025. Born on December 9, 1991, in Edgewood, Kentucky, to Pete Bickers and Renee Smith (née Bailey).
Tyler’s life was filled with love, laughter, and the simple joys he shared with his family and friends. He was a proud fan of Dragon Ball Z and Power Rangers, always embracing his inner kid at heart. He loved going to the movies with his family, attending Comicon events, and spending nights hanging out with his brother. His loyal dog, TJ (“Tyler Jr.”), was his constant companion, and the two shared a special bond.
Tyler especially treasured his nieces, McKenna and Mila, who lit up his world. His time spent at The Point ARC of Northern Kentucky brought him great happiness and gave him lasting friendships. Tyler’s kindness, sense of humor, and gentle spirit touched everyone who knew him. His presence will be deeply missed but lovingly remembered.
He is survived by his mother, Renee (Ray) Smith; his father, Pete Bickers; his brother, Bobby Ritchie; his sisters, Stephanie Ritchie and Danielle Kammer; his aunts, Michelle Shouse and Melissa Herald; his nieces, McKenna Williford and Mila Ryan; his paternal grandmother, Sandra Bickers; his aunt Lori Lamb; his uncles Ernie and David Bickers; as well as numerous extended family members and friends.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday, June 28, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with visitation beginning at 2:00 PM, at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions - Northern Kentucky Chapel, 4350 Dixie Highway, Erlanger, Kentucky 41018.
