Ayris was born May 18, 1941, in Russells Point, Ohio, to the late Hinton Tyson and Dorothea (Shough) Tyson.

Ayris was employed in administrative roles at Norwalk City Schools for over 30 years. In her spare time, she enjoyed ceramics, cross-stitching, and playing games. Ayris was also very fond of her dogs. Her greatest joy of all was spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren.

So sorry to hear about Ayris, Dallas. She was Chuck's sister, Carol's best friend in Norwalk. I talked with Carol this morning and told her about Ayris. After that we talked about you and Chuck walking down the street at Ohio University the first time I met you. - Suzy Miller, Chuck Miller's wife
