Tyson Parris passed away peacefully following complications from chemotherapy on September 23, 2023, after battling cancer for a year and a half. Tyson was born to parents Ian Parris and Julie Bazinet on January 25, 2020. He was known as energetic, funny, defiant, loud, the little destroyer and so full of life. Tyson’s favorite activities were biking, playing with the broom, writing, playing pretend and dancing in high heeled shoes. He dreamed of becoming a doctor.

Tyson was an extremely special child. His joie de vivre, his ability to live life to it’s fullest and with the utmost passion touched the hearts and lives of many people all over the world. In his mere three years with us, he left a legacy and gave strength and inspiration to people facing difficult life circumstances. Despite living a short life, Tyson adored his life. He was a happy child that smiled and laughed every single day and made everyone in his life do the same. He lived a life that was full of love and affection. The medical team at the children’s hospital where he was treated, knew him as the little bright one with the huge personality.

Tyson is survived by his loving parents, Ian and Julie, his brother, Braxton, his grandmother, Andrelina Parris, his grandparents, Cathy Luce and Réal Clement and his godmother, Manon Chartrand. A celebration of life in Tyson’s honour will be held on October 12, 2023, at 4:00pm at Trinity Pentecostal Church.
