Tyrone Warren

February 6, 1962 — June 8, 2026

It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved Tyrone Warren, who departed this world on June 8, 2026, at the age of 64. Tyrone was born on February 6, 1962, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to the late Alonzo Powell and Lillian Warren. His life, though cut short, was filled with love, laughter, and an unwavering dedication to his family and friends. Tyrone's journey began in the vibrant city of Pittsburgh, where he was raised alongside a large and loving family. He graduated from Perry Traditional Academy in 1982, a proud alumnus who cherished the friendships and memories from those formative years. It was here that Tyrone developed his love for people, a passion that would become a defining characteristic throughout his life. A true social butterfly, Tyrone was known for his remarkable ability to connect with people from all walks of life. His infectious smile and warm demeanor could light up any room, and he had an uncanny talent for striking up conversations with strangers who soon became friends. He was the kind of person who made everyone feel welcome and appreciated, a gift that he shared generously with all who crossed his path. Tyrone's love for his family was unparalleled. He married the love of his life, Monica Gandy, and together they built a beautiful life centered around their two cherished daughters, Shayla and Tyonica. His family was his pride and joy, and he was a devoted husband and father. Tyrone was also blessed with the joy of being a grandfather, a role that filled his heart with immense happiness. A fervent Pittsburgh Steelers fan, Tyrone spent countless Sundays cheering on his favorite team, surrounded by family and friends who shared in his enthusiasm for football. The camaraderie and community he found in these moments were a testament to his love for life and his ability to bring people together. Tyrone was predeceased by his parents, Alonzo Powell and Lillian Warren, and his siblings Nathaniel Warren, Ronnie Warren, Alonzo Powell Jr., James Thomas, Maurice Powell, Robert Thomas, Donald Powell, Marlene Powell, Erskine Powell, Alleen Hogan, Carolyn Warren, and Niecey Warren. Though his family has endured much loss, they find solace in the cherished memories and enduring legacy he leaves behind. He is survived by his devoted siblings Conley Powell (Dorothy), Donnell Warren, Debbie Beasley, Joanne Warren, Kim Warren, Michelle Warren, and Diane Warren, who will forever hold him close in their hearts. Tyrone's extended family includes a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, and his treasured grandchild, all of whom will miss him dearly. Tyrone Warren was a man who lived life to the fullest, embracing every moment with joy and gratitude. His legacy of kindness, love, and friendship will continue to inspire all who knew him. As we honor his memory, we celebrate a life well-lived and the extraordinary impact he had on those around him. A memorial service will be held to honor Tyrone's life, where family and friends will gather to share stories and celebrate the remarkable man he was. Though he may no longer be with us in body, his spirit will forever remain a guiding light in our lives. Rest in peace, dear Tyrone. You will be deeply missed and forever loved.

Sunset

Sunset and evening star. And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar. When I put out to sea. But such a tide as moving seems asleep Too full for sound and foam. When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns home again. Twilight and evening bell. And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell, When I embark; For though from out our bourne of Time and Place The flood may bear me far I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.
