Tyler John Loeffler
August 11, 1999 ~ December 10, 2024
Tyler John Loeffler passed away unexpectedly at the young age of 25 on December 10th, 2024, in Gainsville, FL.
Born August 11th, 1999 to the late Michael Loeffler and Tina (Vasilopoulos) Loeffler in Pittsburgh, PA.
Survived by his beloved cat Shaddix, sister Dakota Borders, Brother-in-law Bronson Borders, niece May Borders, Aunt Terrie Vasilopoulos, Uncle Jonathan Freedman, paternal grandparents Robert (Bob) and Lorraine Loeffler, Aunts Diane Rys and Beth Loeffler, Uncle Robert (Bob) Loeffler,
7 Cousins and numerous friend's children that he claimed as his nieces and nephews.
Tyler is an irreplaceable man, brother, nephew, and friend. The most genuine, kind, sweet soul, always making everyone feel loved, included, and important. He co-formed a band in high school called Raven Scar Affliction. You never saw him without his earbuds in, rap, rock, metal he loved it all. Dance like no one was watching, young, wild, and free, Tyler truly tried to live each day to the fullest.
He had a sharp wit and had a thirst for learning and engaging in deep discussions. He particularly loved history and politics and knew so many weird factoids, a skill he used to argue and, deservedly, troll people online.
He was more than content to be lounging around with his fur-son, Shaddix. Writing up his own powerful lyrics, recording songs, attending open mic nights, and watching movies.
Despite his own struggles and sorrows, he always picked himself back up and kept fighting to the very end.
His smile, infectious laughter, and sense of humor are going to be greatly missed. No one could "Crack a little jokey joke" like Tyler could. There really are not enough words to express what a light and life of the party he was.
Preceded in death by his maternal grandmother Bette Vasilopoulos, Aunt Jeanette McCarthy, Uncle James Loeffler, angel daughter Ava, best friend John Fichter and many other loved family members and friends.
You wanted to make a name for yourself, and you did just that. Enjoy all the "choccy milk and chicky nuggies" you can. Fly higher than high, the void you left in this world will never be filled.

Tyler will forever be like a brother to me. He was a friend you could ALWAYS count on and he would quit literally give you the shirt off his back of you needed it. I don't think I'll ever come across someone like him. I hope you're resting peacefully with all your loved ones, Ty. You will be greatly missed, until we meet again.
Safe travels to what ever is next. May it be full of wonder and peace.

Tyler man, you will be missed so greatly. We met at a weird time in our lives, and yet we became instant friends. May you find the happiness you so deserve in the next left, The world is dimmer without you. I'm so sorry to everyone in your life that has lost you.
R.I.P. ty, 🕊 We were all once good friends but after high school we became stangers never the less we knew you. And at a time we all had some good laughs lots of smiles and a lot of joy. I hope you fine peace where you are now and know you'll be missed by many down here… 🥺 Rest Easy old friend.
To think that a decade of friendship would spawn from that simple first interaction of
"You smoke?"
"Smoke what?"
