Wyatt Jon Tritz was born to Randal and Melissa (Jackson) Tritz on April 12, 1995, in Morris, MN. He grew up in Dumont, MN, where he spent a lot of time helping his dad on the farm. Wyatt was involved in wrestling, baseball, and football in high school. He was a part of the 2012 State Champion Football Team, which was his dream. Wyatt had gone to Lake Area Technical Institute and perused two degrees. For a short time, he worked at New Horizons in Chokio before coming home to work on the farm. He enjoyed going to concerts or sporting events of any kind in his free time. Wyatt was also a part of the Chokio Coyotes Baseball Team for several years and that was something he truly enjoyed.

In 2019, Wyatt met Autumn Hildebrandt and in January of 2022, they got engaged. They were married in June of 2023, and had a beautiful baby girl the following year, just two days before their wedding anniversary. Wyatt was so proud to be a dad to Charleigh.

Wyatt enjoyed family gatherings and being able to spend time with his cousins. He looked forward to going to Pleasant Pines Resort on Pleasant Lake near Hackensack, MN, every year. He even tried his hand at managing the resort a few times. Wyatt also enjoyed hunting, fishing, and snowmobiling in the mountains.

Wyatt was a kind man with the most contagious laugh and smile. He could be heard laughing from the moment you walked into the same building, and you would be drawn to it and soon would be laughing with him. He was able to make friends easily and he was friends with everyone.

Wyatt leaves behind a loving family: his wife: Autumn Tritz; daughter: Charleigh Tritz; parents: Randy and Melissa Tritz; grandmother: Marlys Jackson; grandfather: Milo Tritz; along with many extended family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother: Joanne Tritz; grandfather: DeWayne Jackson; and uncle: Kevin Homan.

Arrangements are with Mundwiler and Larson Funeral Home in Graceville, MN.
