RACINE — Tysen Scott Steven Pullins, 19, of Racine, Ohio, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, Oct. 11, 2020.

Tysen was born in Gallipolis, Ohio, Dec. 11, 2000, to Stacy Pullins of Racine, Ohio, and Scott Johnson of Pomeroy, Ohio. He was a 2019 graduate of Southern High School. Tysen began his career with the United States Air Force after graduating high school. He completed basic training top of his class, Flight 323 TRS Mustangs at Lackland AFB, Texas. He specialized as an Airborne Radar Technician on the E-8C. Tysen was stationed at Robins AFB in Ga. Tysen was proud to be apart of the United States Air Force and his family was very proud of all that he had accomplished.

Tysen was full of life and joy; you never saw him without a smile on his face or some type of candy in hand. He went out of his way to make everyone smile and was one of the goofiest people you would ever meet. Tysen was a devoted son, brother, grandson, great-grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend. He loved flying and riding motorcycles. He wanted to see the world and was not so afraid of dying that he didn't live his life to the fullest. He lived his life doing what he loved with those that he loved. As Tysen would often say "Don't let these bastards get you down" -Papa David.
