It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Tyson Ramon Ochoa, age 33 of Pocatello Id. Pocatello is where he worked doing asphalt with his second family (Gilgen's Asphalt Maintenance). He worked there for 3 seasons and was really a part of their family. He enjoyed taking on the repairing of equipment and doing the tedious work nobody else wanted to do; and of course he nailed it every time.

He was born in Rupert ID, to Carina Mata, and Ramon Ochoa.

Tyson was everyone's gentle giant; with a wicked sense of humor, he was truly the funniest person you'd ever meet. We all knew it was going to be a good time whenever he came around, because he could make anyone laugh. He was always there when you needed someone to talk to with no judgment, with a way of taking your burdens he was a great listener. His absence is something everyone will have to learn to live with as we all move forward.

He joins his grandpa Ramon aka 'Smokey', his cousin Miley, and nephew Zachary, and his best friend Sox. What a reunion they must be having. He leaves behind his grandparents, parents and 3 siblings, 3 nieces and 3 nephews and his puppy Morty.

He was raised in Burley, and that is where he met brothers from many walks of life. He had a lasting impact on their lives and even tried to change them for the better. Despite his own issues he was facing he was selfless and always put others first. He may be gone before we're ready to let him go, and he takes a piece of all our hearts with him. With many makeshift gadgets and memories and videos he will always be remembered. He was one of a kind and can never be replaced.

A Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday November 17, 2025,  at Morrison Funeral Home located on the highway in Rupert, Idaho.

Condolences:

My heart aches that Ty is gone, He was truly the son I was never able to have. Regardless I loved him as if he were my own. And I was blessed to have had him in my life for the short period of time that I did. I pray that God gives the family the comfort and strength that we all need in this very sad situation. May you RIP Ty....Dusila Rodrriguez

I love you Tyson, give monkey a big hug for me.. rest easy...Ciarailene

I can't believe that I am here typing this. We were in touch until the end & I'm so grateful for that. Your always positive & genuine sense of humor legitimately, would have me barreled over laughing & we just bounced off each other like true brothers. I love you, T-Bone. & I will forever cherish every crazy time we had together. God Bless & you take care of Sox "k? K." Rest in Paradise, brother...Challen

Tyson, I will always remember you as the shy, funny, gentle giant, kid next door. May God give you peace as you sleep and bring comfort to your family....Dawn Thomson

Too my brother, I miss you every minute of everyday. I wish I could have one last hug, or just one last kiss on top of the head. You have been with me through every part of my life and even when I was wrong you'd just tell me to quit being dumb. We helped each other rise, and grind, and work to be better human beings. I've always manifested a future for you, like a steady life, family of your own, and everything . I would literally tell you the dreams I had for you because I wanted you to be happy too YOU DESERVED IT. I will always love you and miss you we normally had these talks in person but until next time it's not goodbye just see you later.. give the family hugs and kisses from Me. Love- Your Little Sister Bianca Ochoa

I had only met Ty a few months ago, but in the short time I knew him he grew on me like a weed… always funny and always willing to help out with whatever I needed help with. I remember when Ty got Morty and Morty and my dog Norbit were little best friends… then out of the blue one day Ty showed up with Morty’s little sister… her name is lily. Rest easy my friend and thank you for everything you did for me … Norbit says hi too!!! Danielle Rodriguez
