Remembering Tyrius

A life held close in memory

Tyrius Ray'Quan McDougald, born August 11, 2004, was a devoted son and loving brother whose presence brightened the lives of family and friends in Bunnlevel. He is remembered by his parents, Theresa Diane McDougald and Mitchell Brandon McDougald, and his sister, Tiana Michelle McDougald, along with grandparents Mary Ellen McDougald and Gloria Jean Sanders, and a wide circle of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who held him dear.

Tyrius lived in his community at 213 WH McLean Lane and was known within his family as someone who mattered deeply to those closest to him. The family honored his memory with a public viewing at Dafford Funeral Home in Dunn and a graveside service at McLean Cemetery in Bunnlevel, reflecting the love and support surrounding him.

Those who loved Tyrius remember him as part of a close-knit family and a community that shared in both joys and hardships. While words cannot replace the daily presence of a young life cut short, his family’s gatherings, the memories they carry, and the warmth of their remembrances stand as a lasting tribute to him.

Friends and relatives who wish to honor Tyrius may do so by sharing memories, offering comfort to his family, or contributing flowers or memorial gestures as arranged through the funeral home. His life, though brief, left meaningful impressions on those who knew him, and he is lovingly remembered by the many relatives and friends who survive him.
