Lafayette, Anthony "Tony" Scott, Tyra, 59, Lafayette, went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on August 27, 2020 following a lengthy illness.
Tony was born on July 9, 1961 in Wolfe County, Kentucky. He was the son of the late Arthur and Louise Tyra. Tony attended school in Kentucky and Attica. He previously worked as a mechanic and at Surplus and Salvage of Lafayette.
Tony loved the Lord, his family and music, especially southern rock. He loved playing guitar and reading and studying his Bible. Tony was attending the Harvest Chapel Church in Williamsport.
Tony leaves behind a son, Daniel Scott (Shana) Tyra and a daughter, Kaiya (Chris) King; five siblings, Kenneth Tyra, Kathy (Andy) Ingram, Greg (Launa) Tyra, Jamey (Jana) Tyra and Crystal Bowers (Adam); his grandchildren, Stevie Tyra, Landen King and Paislee King.
