Owen Tyler Naniot

Owen Tyler Naniot, 3, of Cayce, South Carolina, passed away on March 12, 2024.

Born November 3, 2020, in Lexington, SC, he was the son of Dustin Tyler Naniot and Hannah Dupree Naniot.

To know Owen, was to love Owen. His favorite things in the world were his “bubby” (elephant lovey), monster trucks, dancing, and getting dirty outside. He was a boy of many words and never went a minute without telling the people around him that he loves them. There aren’t many words to express the sorrow and grief our family is going through. 

Owen is survived by his parents, Dustin and Hannah Naniot; his maternal grandparents, Bill and Cheri Rogers; his paternal grandparents, Neal and Regan Causey; his aunts and uncles: Christopher Rogers, Jason and Ashley Dunn, Hayley Rogers, Eric and Taylor Carter; and his great grandparents: Nancy Shumard, and Larry and Linda Naniot.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, March 16, 2024, at Holland Avenue Baptist Church, with Pastor Dow Welsh officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service, at 12:00 PM. Interment will follow at Southland Memorial Gardens.
