Tyrone is proceeded in death by both sets of paternal and maternal grandparents, father, Herbert Dillard, sister, Cynthia Dillard, and nephew, Lacey Dillard.
Tyrone started his formal education at the Faulkner County Day School, then proceeded to attend Guy Perkins Schools, and graduated from Conway High School.
Tyrone spent his 44 years being the family baby; loved and spoiled by all! He loved to laugh and play with the younger children. Tyrone was a sports fanatic; it was his favorite thing to watch on the television. Whenever Tyrone wanted someone to find a baseball game or wrestling match for him to watch on the television, he would always say “swing pitch!” If the television wasn’t turned fast enough, you were likely to get a loving “tap” with one of his many baseball bats. Tyrone also loved to watch the cartoon Scooby Doo. Tyrone also faithfully attended the Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church most of his life! His favorite part of each service was listening to the music and singing.
Tyrone’s memories are left to be cherished by his mother, Virginia Day Dillard, four sisters Etta Young, Diane Dillard, Melinda (Carl) Presley, and Sarah Robinson, all of Conway, AR and four brothers Elton (Helen) Dillard and Herbert (Doris) Dillard, Jr. of Conway, AR, Nolan Dillard of Savannah, GA, and Benny (Sandra) Dillard of Greenbrier, AR.
