Horace Norman Tryon

Our heavenly Father called his son home on Friday, July 15, 2022, at 1:40PM Horace Tryon was born in Newport News, Virginia. The family would later move to Lincoln Homes in Trenton, New Jersey where his mother would later marry Troy Tompkins after the loss of her husband. The family would again move to Pennington Avenue in Trenton, New Jersey ironically not far from the woman Horace would one day marry. After completing his early education in the Trenton Public Schools, Horace went on to attend Rider College 1951 before entering the US Navy in 1952. After returning home from the Navy, he married Virginia E Byrd, the love of his life and high school sweetheart. Horace continued his education studying Photography at the School of Industrial Arts 1963-1967 and later Business Administration at Trenton State College 1970-1973. For over 40 years Horace worked two jobs; he worked for the State of New Jersey from 1957 until he retired holding various positions throughout the years and a second job in the evening to further supplement his family. Horace was raised in Mount Zion AME Church, Trenton, New Jersey where he was a member of the choir. After marrying Virginia, he became a member of Shiloh Baptist Church in Trenton, New Jersey. As a devoted husband and family man, he ensured that his family always came first supporting them in all endeavors and interests. The gentleman inside was always present, in every aspect of his life, from the stranger he met for the first time in the store to the friend he had not seen in over 20 years. Horace was a true gentleman and family man. After losing his wife of over 53 years in 2014, Horace remained in Ewing, New Jersey where he and Virginia had lived and raised their two children. Post several hospital stays (April-May 2022), Horace would move from the family home to Greenwood House Nursing Home also in Ewing, New Jersey. He leaves to mourn two devoted children Pia Beth Hart and Stuart Tryon; a son-in-law Douglas Hart; daughter-in-law Stephanie Tryon; three adoring grandchildren Sydney Tryon, Sawyer Tryon, and Jarid Hart; one brother-in-law Joseph Byrd and sister-in-law Marsha Byrd; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.
