Celebrating the life of
Tyson William Dunfee

In Loving Memory of
Tyson William Dunfee
October 14, 1978 – October 11, 2026
Forever My Love, Forever in Our Hearts
Some love stories are so beautiful that even death cannot bring them to an end.
With unimaginable sadness and hearts filled with love, we announce the passing of Tyson William Dunfee, who departed this life on October 11, 2026, just three days before his 48th birthday.
Tyson was a remarkable man whose charisma, humor, kindness, and joyful spirit made him truly unforgettable. He had a special way of lighting up a room, making people laugh, and bringing happiness to those around him. His quick wit, playful sarcasm, and wonderful sense of humor were part of what made him so special. To know Tyson was to love him.
He found happiness in life’s simple pleasures. Tyson loved college football, spending time in the kitchen cooking delicious meals, and had recently discovered a new passion for baking. He also enjoyed watching FOX News, a familiar part of his daily routine. Above all, he adored his beloved dogs, Sarge and Cowboy, who brought him endless joy and companionship.
But beyond his hobbies and wonderful personality, Tyson was a man with an extraordinary heart. He was kind, loving, charismatic, and deeply cherished by those fortunate enough to be part of his life.
To his loving husband, Winston Jimenez Scott, Tyson was so much more than a husband. He was his best friend, his soulmate, his companion, his greatest love, and his home. Together, they shared a beautiful love story filled with laughter, unforgettable memories, and the little everyday moments that make a lifetime so meaningful.
Although Tyson’s time on earth ended far too soon, the love he gave and the happiness he brought into this world will never fade.
Today, we celebrate his life, his laughter, his unforgettable personality, and the beautiful memories he leaves behind. We remember the man who could make us smile with a sarcastic remark, brighten an ordinary day with his humor, and make life more beautiful simply by being himself.
His absence leaves an immeasurable emptiness, but his love will continue to live in every memory, every smile, and every heart he touched.
Tyson, you were the best man I have ever known. Thank you for your love, your laughter, and the beautiful life we shared. You will always be my greatest love, my favorite person, and a part of everything I am.
Until we meet again, my love.
Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever remembered.
With all my love,
Your husband, Winston Jimenez Scott

Thank you for answering the phone, for showing up, for believing in me, for making me laugh, and for letting me be myself without ever feeling judged. My heart is broken because your place in my life was real, your friendship was a gift. I don't know how to make peace with the fact that someone who was such a constant in my work life is now someone I have to miss. I only know that I am better for having known you, and I will forever be grateful our paths crossed. There will always be stories that make me laugh because of you, memories that make me cry because I miss you, and little reminders of you tucked into the most unexpected corners of my days. And somewhere, I hope you know that your girl is still out here being her usual ridiculous self, probably saving a sauce packet she doesn't need, washing out a Ziploc bag that should have been thrown away three uses ago and losing her car in ever hospital parking garage. I just wish I could call you and tell you about it. Forever my work bestie. Forever my safe space. Forever missed. I love you, Tyson. And I will never stop being thankful that I got to call you my friend. ~ Heather Godfrey ~

Amigo, no tengo palabras para aliviar un dolor tan grande. No tuve la oportunidad de conocer a tu esposo, pero por todo lo que he escuchado de él, sé que fue un ser humano extraordinario y muy querido. Siento muchísimo que hayas tenido que despedirte de él tan pronto. Mis oraciones están dirigidas a ti, sus padres y amigos.
