Tyler Matthew Norton, 21, Marshfield, Missouri, passed away on Friday, February 24, 2017 in Cox South after a tragic accident. Tyler's life will live on with the gift he gave of organ donation. Tyler was able to help three others live their life to the fullest.

He was born September 7, 1995 in Springfield, Missouri, the son of Timothy Wayne Norton and Jennifer (Lawson) Norton.

Tyler had a beautiful smile that lit up any room he walked in. Everyone keeps commenting on how sweet and polite he was but it was true, he was a beautiful soul from the first day.  He always attracted a crowd and had more friends than a person would believe.

Arya and Luke were the loves of Tyler's life. He was an amazing father and loved them with all his heart. They will miss his love and smile but will always be reminded of how great he was with them.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother, Cathy Spell.

Tyler is survived by his mother and her husband, Jennifer and Brandon Speakes; his father and his wife, Tim and Coleen Norton, the mother of his children, Skye Bruton and their children, Arya Mae Norton and Luke Wayne Norton; three brothers, Andrew Norton, Peyton Conboy and Joshua Norton; his sister, Megan Bell; two step-brothers, Cody Shirk and Austin Curbow; his grandparents, Marie Archie, and Rick and Jill Norton; his aunts and uncles, Jeremy Lawson, Jessica Rader and her husband, Eddie, Cheri Norton and her wife Corine, Dana Norton and Candace Norton.

Memorial services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, March 4, 2017 in Gorman-Scharpf Funeral Home with the Reverend Richard Cody officiating. In lieu of flowers, the family will establish a memorial fund to benefit Tyler's two children and their mother Skye.
