Tyler Richard Gaudet

Tyler Richard Gaudet, 29, of Spencer, passed away with his mother by his side holding his hand on Thursday, July 18, 2024.

Tyler was born in Leominster on March 9, 1995, to Kim Barnaby. Tyler enjoyed playing baseball during his childhood where his mother coached. Tyler loved camping, fishing, skateboarding, going to the beach, and spending time with family and friends.

Tyler was an avid fisherman, loved animals, watching his favorite movies, Avatar & Lord of the Rings, playing e-sports, and loved playing with and talking to Kelsey about Jesus. But there was no greater love in Tyler’s life than his beloved dog, Cabella Grace. Tyler struggled for many years with addiction but was incredibly proud of having 5 years of sobriety on July 3, 2024.

Sadly, Tyler was predeceased by his maternal grandfather Richard Barnaby who passed away on December 19, 2007. 

Tyler is survived by his beloved mother, Kim Barnaby and his loving stepfather Nick Martunas of Spencer; his loving siblings, Travis Gaudet, and Gracie Gende; his adored grandparents Beverly Martin and Stephen Powers; his uncle Keith Barnaby; and all of the loving Martunas family; his precious dog, Cabella Grace; and many cousins and friends.

Mercadante Funeral Home & Chapel is honored to assist the family in arrangements.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Tyler’s memory to Second Chance Animal Shelter of North Brookfield.
