Amir Anthony Esterabadi

Amir was born on March 19th, 1987 in Miami, FL. At an early age, his family moved to Tyler. He graduated from Robert E. Lee High School and then attended Tyler Junior College and Louisiana State University for veterinary medicine. Amir started his career as a veterinary technician at the age of 16 and his passion for animals was unmatched. He was a sweet and kind hearted individual who loved people and had a way of brightening a room simply with his presence. Amir cherished time spent with his family and friends. He enjoyed working on cars and could fix any issue with a little help from “Dr. Google.” Every football Sunday, the family looked forward to his commentary and “Waddle-Waddle” dance.

Watching the Miami Dolphins and his beloved LSU Tigers truly brought the family together and created endless treasured memories.

Amir was preceded in death by his grandparents, Dr. Amir and Mrs. Sedi Esterabadi, Yeto Morciglio and Eloina Ayala; and his uncle, Joe Diaz.

Amir is survived by his fiancée, Stacia Griffin; father, Michael Esterabadi and his wife Anita; mother, Licet Morciglio Gaston; siblings, Sedina Bunch and her husband Lynn, Theron Parks, Adrienne Kennedy and her husband Anthony; niece and nephew Aria “Wash-Wash” and Ander “The Salamander” Bunch; 8 aunts and uncles; 14 cousins; and his fur children Jasper and Cooper.

A celebration of life memorial for Amir will be held Saturday, July 22, 2023 at 2:00 PM at Lloyd James Funeral Home, 1011 E 1st St, Tyler, Texas 75701.
