Tyler Stephan Trudell

PAXTON – Tyler Stephan Trudell, the beloved son of Stephan C. and Lynn A. (Yeulenski) Trudell, passed in the peaceful surroundings of his home on Thursday, May 13, 2021 at the age of 13.

Besides his parents, Tyler leaves his two brothers, Benjamin and Zachary Trudell; his maternal grandmother, Linda (West) Yeulenski of Hubbardston; his paternal grandmother, Kathleen Roberts of Leicester; aunts and uncles including, Anthony Yeulenski III and his children, Anthony, and Kaitlyn of North Grosvenordale, CT; Kimberly and Donald Lindberg of Rutland and their children, Emily, Curtis, Kyle and Carter; Stephanie and Nabil Zeena of Worcester; Sharron and Randy Davis of Leicester; Shannon Trudell of Leicester; his beloved Sheltie, Willow; and many close friends. He is predeceased by his grandfathers, Anthony Yeulenski II and Charles F. Trudell.

Tyler had an infectious smile, adorable dimples, and big beautiful blue eyes. He would light up any room he was in and spread love and laughter wherever he went.
He always had the gift to make people laugh.

Tyler was the happiest when he was playing baseball, basketball, and football with all his friends. He was a pitcher and played shortstop for the Paxton Little League team and was selected to play for the All-Stars. He was also chosen to play for the Worcester Strike Zone AAU. He excelled in school and was a straight A student. He strived to do well in everything he did.

He enjoyed spending time outdoors, hiking, and exploring, but his main passion was fishing; often being known to out-fish his Dad. Tyler’s vacations with his family at the ocean and the White Mountains will be cherished forever. His parents, Stephan and Lynn, enjoyed every single moment spent with him. They instilled within him Christian values and a love for life.

His brothers, Zach and Ben, proudly contributed to forming Tyler into the incredible young man he was. He enjoyed learning the Rubik’s Cube and ultimate frisbee with his brother, Zach. Zach taught him kindness, compassion, and patience. His brother, Ben spent hours playing wiffle ball and catch in the backyard, always trying to get it “over the shed.” Ben taught him how to be strong inside and out. He modeled the spirit of competition and always giving 100%.

His grandmothers, aunts, uncles, and cousins were instrumental in raising a beautiful young man and we are grateful for them.

Those who knew Tyler, even for just a little, lost a shining star in their lives. Tyler touched the lives of so many. Please spread his message of love and laughter and be good to one another.

The Trudell family would like to extend a heart-felt sincere thank you for all the love, support, and generosity from the Paxton, Wachusett and Worcester County communities. Notably friends, family, and Pastor Jane.

Relatives and friends are invited to visit with Tyler’s family from 4 to 8 pm on Wednesday, May 19, at Miles Funeral Home, 1158 Main Street, Holden. A funeral service honoring his life will be celebrated with family and close friends privately at 11 am on Thursday, May 20, at the funeral home. Tyler will be laid to rest at Mooreland Cemetery in Paxton. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the First Congregational Church of Paxton, 1 Church St., Paxton, MA 01612.
