TYLER B. SAXTON

Tyler B. Saxton, age 22, of Kahoka, MO, died unexpectedly early Sunday, May 19, 2013, at the scene of an ATV accident one mile north of Wayland, MO.

Tyler was born November 7, 1990, at Quincy, IL, a son of Tony E. and Jean L. Dunning Saxton.

Survivors include his parents, Tony Saxton and Jean Saxton, both of Kahoka, MO; twin brothers, Ryan and Ross Saxton, of Kahoka, MO; grandparents, Larry and Jane Saxton and William Sr. and Barb Dunning, all of Kahoka, MO; two uncles, Todd Saxton of Quincy, IL and William Dunning, Jr. and Stephanie Higgins of Bloomfield, IA; as well as great aunts and uncles and their families and other relatives.

He was preceded in death by his great grandparents.

Tyler graduated from Clark Co. R-1 High School with the Class of 2009. The past two years he had worked in parts sales at I.M.I. in Kahoka.

His passion was Demo Derbys and the "X BOYZ". From the time he was a toddler he was demoing with his dad, learning how to work on cars, and playing like he was the driver, making sounds louder than his dad's car! He could drive anything and he could fix anything. He also enjoyed anything that involved being out doors. He looked forward each year to "deer camp" at Bill Bonine's and loved to hunt, fish, and 4 - wheel. He loved spending time with his little brothers and together they played a lot of x-box games.

Most of all, Tyler was a friend. His friendships were many and each were important to him. He enjoyed life, living it to the fullest, and enjoyed telling jokes, having fun, and making others happy, happy, happy! Although he is so very young, each day was special to him and he made the most of it.

Funeral services were held Wednesday, May 22, 2013 at 10 a.m. at Wilson Funeral Home in Kahoka with Pastor Jared McAfee officiating. Burial was in the Kahoka Cemetery.

Memorials are for his brothers' education fund.
