Tyler Wayne Wheeler, 32, passed away unexpectedly on March 14, 2023, in Deltona, Florida.
Tyler was born on March 08, 1991, in Orlando, Florida, to parents Kevin and Christina Ashley Wheeler.
Tyler regularly attended Deltona United Church of Christ. He was a very intelligent man, interested in many things. He loved music, especially Red Hot Chili Peppers and Sound Garden. He was a knife aficionado, including machetes, hatchets, throwing knives, etc. His online social media personality was "Hatchetëê, live in the Savage Garden" where he allowed fun insight into his personal world at the moment with his pets, plants, and music. He was an old soul, who loved bass fishing, his family, writing poetry, and listening to vinyl records. Tyler was a hipster before it was cool and trendy to be one. He was undoubtedly the O.G. hipster, enjoying life to its absolute fullest, without hesitation or regret. He loved older people and was a good conversationalist, always learning and listening. He had a good heart and an honest soul and touched many hearts. He loved his family and when he was away from them, he missed it more than anything.
Tyler leaves behind his beloved mother, Christina, and step-father Russell Church Jr., His father, Kevin (Jossie) Wheeler, maternal grandparents, Phyllis (Ken) White and Bobby (Beverly) Ashley, paternal grandparents, Wayne and Jackie Wheeler, siblings, Sarah Elizabeth Wheeler, Jordan Hall, Justin Church, Morgan Borthwick, Joshua Church, Isabella, and Abigail Wheeler.
