Words can't begin to tell you how sorry I am that you lost such a precious son and brother. I have so many wonderful memories of all the fun Kyle and I had when he was a little boy; he grew into a wonderful young man who always had a big smile. We need to remember this was all in God's special plan for him.

Aunt Karen, Uncle Terry, Stephanie and Kevin,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of loss. May you feel all the strength and love surrounding you. What a special soul Heaven has received. We love you all.
Uncle Terry, Aunt Karen, & Steph,

I've been trying to figure out how to express my disbelief and overall sadness from this tragic event... Honestly I'm having a lot of trouble believing this is true, it's all so sudden, and shocking. Kyle was a good person. I never heard him complain or say a negative word in his entire life. He enjoyed people and being around them. He was truly a good person and will be greatly missed. Our love and strength we pray reaches you all and helps you in this extremely difficult time. May God be with you all, and I know Kyles love and kindness will always shine down on you from heaven. Much love,

Our hearts have been so sad, for you Terry & Karen since we heard of Kyle's sudden death. I have memories of knowing Kyle as a little boy. How he loved his match box cars and keeping his parents busy! Kyle and Stephanie were always so cute together, she was always protective of her little brother. Continued thoughts and prayers for each of your family. May you feel Gods renewed peace and strength each day.
