During his time as a child star, Myers first appeared as a young Will Smith in the third season of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in 1992.

The late actor leaves behind a younger sister, Tyree Trice, who launched a GoFundMe campaign after his death to help cover funeral costs.

On the page, Myers, who had four children, was described by his family as a "devoted father, loving brother, and friend whose kindness, laughter, and warmth touched everyone he met."
