Tyler Ryan Hagwood, 33, of Causeyville, MS, passed away on August 10, 2026, surrounded by family and friends who loved him with their whole hearts. To us, he wasn't just a husband, father, or friend, he was the one everyone quietly depended on.

Tyler was born on February 6, 1993, in Meridian, MS. Raised by a family who taught him to love God, work hard, and take care of the people around him, those values stayed with him every step of the way.

If you knew Tyler, you knew he was about as genuine as they come. A good ole country boy through and through, he was the kind of person people naturally gravitated toward. He had a big heart, a quick wit, and a way of making everybody feel like they'd known him forever.

An electrician by trade, Tyler had a gift for figuring things out. There wasn't much he couldn't build, fix, or find a solution for. People knew they could count on him when something needed doing, and he was always willing to lend a hand. He never met a stranger and could carry on a conversation with just about anybody.

Tyler was a man of strong faith who loved the Lord and found some of his closest moments with God in the woods. Whether he was sitting quietly in a deer stand or walking through the woods, he felt at peace surrounded by God's creation. He loved deer hunting, turkey hunting, and spending time outdoors with family and friends. Hunting wasn't just something he enjoyed. It was where stories were shared, traditions were passed down, and memories were made. And if you were lucky enough to spend time with him during turkey season, chances are you got to try his turkey nuggets. Ask anybody who knew him, and they'll tell you nobody made them quite like Tyler.

Family was at the center of Tyler's life. He was raised to believe that family was the most important thing, and that was a lesson he carried with him every day. You could see it in the way he loved the people closest to him. Anyone who knew Tyler knew how much he loved Haylee. She was the love of his life, his best friend, and the center of his world. Together with Will and Hunter, they were his greatest blessing and the heart of everything he did.

He never passed up a chance to spend time with them. Whether it was tossing a ball with Will, coaching his t-ball team, playing in the backyard, working in the greenfield, or just being together, those were the moments he treasured most.

Tyler's faith guided the way he lived, and he embodied what Scripture teaches about being a husband, a father, and a son. The way he loved, provided for, and showed up for his family reflected both the values he was raised on and the faith he carried throughout his life.

His love for family extended far beyond his own home. Tyler cherished his parents, his sister and her family, his grandparents, and the many aunts, uncles, cousins, and loved ones who helped shape the man he became. The love and respect he had for his family ran deep, and the values they instilled in him stayed with him throughout his life.

And if Tyler considered you a friend, chances are he considered you family too. He had a way of making people feel like they belonged. The kids of his closest friends never knew him as anything other than "Uncle T." Whether they were related by blood or not didn't matter much to Tyler. He loved them like they were his own. That's just who Tyler was. His circle was wide, his heart was big, and there was always room for one more.

Tyler never cared much about being the center of attention. He was happiest taking care of the people he loved, working hard, and enjoying life's simple blessings. He leaves behind countless stories, treasured memories, and a legacy of faith, family, and love that will live on in all who knew him.

There'll never be another Tyler, and anyone who knew him is better for it.

He leaves behind his beloved wife, Haylee; his two sons, Will and Hunter; his parents, Donald Wayne and Michelle Hagwood; his sister, Brittany Reeves (Bradley); niece, Harper Reeves; grandparents, Levi and Ruth Hostetler; and a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins who love him deeply.

And in so many ways, Tyler lives on through Will and Hunter, in the lessons he taught them, the memories they shared, and the love he poured into being their dad. They will grow up hearing stories of the man who loved them and who would have been so proud of them.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Sonny and Ouida Hagwood; and aunt, Gladys Hostetler.

Serving as pallbearers are some of his closest friends: Dalton Kamper, Jake Strickland, Zach Skelton, Tommie Coker, Matthew Helms, Alan Hagwood, Bradley Reeves, and David Morris.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that memorial contributions be made in his memory to Catch-a-Dream Foundation.
