With profound sadness and broken hearts, we announce the passing of Tyler Nelson Weidner, 33, of Williams Township, who was called home to the Lord on September 4, 2025. A life so full of strength, compassion, and unwavering love ended far too soon, leaving an irreplaceable void in the hearts of all who knew him. Born on October 8, 1991, Tyler was the cherished son of Kevin D. and Nellisa M. (Greenleaf) Weidner of Palmer Township. From a young age, Tyler exemplified a bold spirit, a generous heart, and a quiet determination that would come to define the man he became. Tyler graduated from Easton Area High School in 2010, where he was a proud member of the 2009 District 11 Championship football team. He also showcased his athletic talent in wrestling and tennis, and demonstrated his inclination for leadership when he served as a leader with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Huddle at Easton High School. Following high school, Tyler pursued a degree in Business at The Citadel, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in 2014 as a member of the Romeo Company, an experience that helped shape his steadfast sense of duty and honor. Driven by a deep commitment to service, Tyler followed in his father’s and grandfather’s footsteps, becoming a third generation firefighter with the City of Easton Fire Department. He was a member of the Easton Professional Firefighters Local 713, and his bravery and selflessness were evident every day he put on his uniform. Tyler lived life with passion. He found joy in the stillness of a duck blind, the energy of a good workout, and the comfort of being surrounded by loved ones. Above all, Tyler’s greatest pride and deepest love were for his family. He was a devoted son and grandson, a protective and loving brother, a loyal fiancé, and a proud and adoring father. He leaves behind his beloved fiancée, Kerry Kozic, and their precious son, Sawyer Lee, both of Williams Township. In addition to his parents, Tyler is lovingly remembered by his siblings: Preston Weidner and his wife Lian Grow of Bethlehem Township; Gabriella Chinchar and her husband Kaiden of Bethlehem Township; Adeline Rose, Berkley, Steele, and Colt Weidner, all of Palmer Township. He is also survived by his maternal grandparents, Nelson and Jacqueline Greenleaf. Each of them carries a piece of Tyler’s enduring spirit in their hearts. Tyler was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Willis and Nancy Weidner. Tyler’s presence was a gift, his loyalty unshakeable, and his heart expansive. Though his time with us was far too brief, the impact he made will live on in every life he touched. A viewing will be held on Tuesday, September 9, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Morello Funeral Home Inc., 3720 Nicholas Street, Easton, PA (Palmer Township). Calling hours will take place on Wednesday, September 10, from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM, followed by a memorial service at the funeral home. Interment will then take place in Gethsemane Cemetery, Palmer Twp. In honor of Tyler’s love for his son, memorial contributions may be made to the family for the benefit of Sawyer Lee Weidner, and mailed care of Morello Funeral Home Inc., 3720 Nicholas Street, Easton, PA 18045. Though Tyler may no longer walk beside us, his light will continue to shine through the love he gave and the legacy he leaves behind.
