Kyle grew up in Otwell with his 2 brothers and sister and attended Pike Central High School. His favorite memories included his siblings, and he loved his family and children. Kyle didn’t see his children often, but when he did, you could tell the love he had for them was real. Kyle enjoyed nature, camping, hunting and fishing, and loved to collect arrowheads.

Everyone who knew Kyle knows he had a big heart and thrived to be better. He will be missed by many. His family would like to thank the staff at Memorial Hospital and the Team at Indiana Donor Network. With their help, Kyle was able to gift many organs, including his lungs, liver, kidneys, heart, and skin tissue. He ended his life saving many others’ lives and will continue to bless those families for the rest of their lives.

Kyle will be cremated, and his family will have a private ceremony together in honor of Kyle. Suicide doesn’t end the chances of life getting worse, it eliminates the possibility of it ever getting better. “Never, never, never give up.” – Winston Churchill.

Harris Funeral Home is entrusted with care.
