Tylor Lee Johnson, 33, of Grand Forks, ND, passed away on Tuesday, September 12, 2023, when his agricultural aircraft went down. Tylor was the son of Lynn Johnson and Tracey Ebertowski.

He was born October 8, 1989 and grew up in Argyle, MN. He graduated from Stephen-Argyle High School in 2008, where he played football and golf and made lifelong friends. After graduation, he tried out a few colleges, but the one he liked the best was South Dakota State University, where his wife was. During this time, he also became a commercial pilot. Ultimately, he knew he was going to be a pilot; as his passion was flying and he loved what he did. He married his wife, McKenzie (Bruer), of Fisher, MN on January 7, 2017. They started their married life in Grafton, ND and eventually made their home in Grand Forks, ND.

He started his career as a 3rd generation aerial applicator at Johnson Airspray in Argyle, MN, where he also built planes with his Grandpa Lindley in the winter. Later, he started his own business, Flyiton Ag., out of Oslo, MN. Airplanes were a huge part of his life, and he spent many hours researching them. He was an extremely hard worker and has always been a hustler, with many projects in the works, including his newest business, Flooriton, where he sold commercial flooring.

No matter where Tylor went, he made friends. He had an infectious personality that drew people to him. Perhaps, his favorite hobby was talking to his friends on the phone numerous times a day.   He loved life and was a kid at heart. He enjoyed spending time with his nieces and nephew. He looked forward to his annual hunting trip. He loved to spend time at the lake and enjoyed snowmobiling and ice fishing in the winter. As a couple, Tylor and McKenzie spent a lot of time traveling, especially to his favorite place, Maui, HI.  He was an avid Vikings fan and never missed watching or attending a game. He liked the atmosphere of UND hockey games and has been attending them for most of his life. Any extra time he had was spent on the golf course. Most of all, Tylor loved his family.

He is survived by his wife, McKenzie (Bruer), his father, Lynn (Cathy) Johnson, his mother, Tracey Ebertowski, his sister, Brianne (Troy) Osowski, his brother, Cole Johnson, his brother, Andrew Ebertowski, his stepbrothers, Ross Domier and Christian (Chelsey) Ebertowski and their children, Everett and Harper, his nieces, Margot and Edie Osowski, Harlow and Luella Bruer, his nephew, Tate Bruer, his grandparents, Lindley and Betty Johnson and Curt and LaVonne Lundeen and many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
