In loving memory
October 2023 — March 2025
17 months of extraordinary joy
Tyler Vincent Spiziri came into this world with a presence far beyond his years. From his very first days, he commanded every room he entered. His contagious smile and bubbly personality left a lasting impression on everyone he met and even those he didn't.
He was, in every sense, ahead of his time and always in a rush. Crawling when most were still learning to roll, walking as others were just finding their crawl, he was always on the move and trying to explore his world. Reading, music, animals, nature — nothing escaped his attention.
This page is a small attempt to hold what cannot be held — to share who Tyler was with everyone who loved him, and everyone who wishes they had known him. He was here for seventeen short months but he will never be forgotten.
— Forever in our hearts
Tyler Vincent Spiziri entered the world on October 1st, 2023 and immediately made his presence known.
Tyler found his way around on his own terms, exploring every corner of the world within reach.
Devastating news that no family should ever face, Tyler was diagnosed with a malignant rhabdoid tumor; a very rare and extremely aggressive cancer in his kidney.
Tyler faced his treatment with a strength and brightness that moved everyone around him. He smiled through the hard days and carried us all with him. Time in the hospital was just another opportunity to make new friends and explore new spaces.
Always ready to move faster Tyler quickly learned to take his first steps all on his own. There was no looking back!
One full year with our best friend. We celebrated as big as we could and Tyler loved every minute.
Tyler left this world having touched more lives in seventeen months than most do in a lifetime. He is loved beyond measure, and missed every single day.
