ANTHONY (TONY) WAYNE HYLE

Anthony (Tony) Hyle, 64, of Mustang, OK, was born on November 5, 1961 and went to be with his Lord and Savior on December 18, 2025.  He was born in Pawnee, Oklahoma to Allen and Helen (Ogle) Hyle, who have preceded him in death.

The day after Tony graduated from high school, he moved to Oklahoma City to work in the oil and gas industry. He later became a successful business owner of Driltech Inspection Services, an oilfield service company. His time in the oil and gas industry spanned a total of 41 years, in a career he loved and retired from in 2021. After retirement he took up woodworking which he enjoyed and kept him busy.

In 1979, Tony met Tina Denise Knoch, who became his high school sweetheart. They celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary this past November. They enjoyed motorcycle riding, spending time at the lake fishing and boating, and taking care of their children, consisting of 9 four-legged fury babies (their dogs) throughout their marriage.

Tony made the best decision in his life in 2004, when he realized he was a sinner at a revival service, where Rev. Ruffin Snow was preaching. At his home, alone and in his closet, he asked Jesus Christ to come into his heart. He was a member of Southern Hills Baptist Church.

Tony is survived by his wife Tina of the home.  He is also survived by his sister, Kim Hackbarth (John) of Florida; two aunts, Debbie Seeley, Oklahoma City, OK and Mary Ann Norris, Odessa, TX, one nephew, and several cousins.
