Presently, Kyle was working for Indue Sales & Service in Hudson. He helped on the family farm with his Dad and enjoyed his time there.

Kyle was a son, a brother, a boyfriend, a best friend and friend. He will be remembered as loving, kind, compassionate, appreciative, helpful, protective and having a great sense of humor and quick wit. Kyle always found the good in everyone. He had a special talent for being able to figure out how things worked just by looking at them. Kyle had a love of building things; a home-cooked meal of mashed potatoes, gravy, turkey, sweet corn and his Mom's chocolate chip cookies. He enjoyed playing Rook with his family at the holidays. Kyle's motto was: "If you are going to do something, do it right."
