He served with honor and always had an good dameanor. I didn't know him personally per say but I knew him He was in my company I knew his name, I had been around him and trained around him for 2 years his loss of life and everyone else that day was a tremendous heart break to everyone that served with him. I just hope one day we all from Bco 1/67 Amor that shed our blood, sweat, and tears there will join him at heavens gates one day.

Kyle had a spark of life in his eyes and his handshake was firm and I liked that. Little did I know that he would soon be gone from us but I still today remember talking to him. He was a warrior and that is ok to say about military people. He honored us with his service and I thank him for that.

As I read these memorials, it brings tears of pride to my eyes yet a deep ache in my heart for all the brave men and women who didn't make it home to the arms of their loved ones. They will never be forgotten!

Kyle was an adopted brother of mine. Kyle still IS my brother. He was fun, carefree, & great to hang out with. Anyone that knew him will tell you that Kyle lived his life to the ABSOLUTE fullest, enjoying every single minute of what he had. Whether at a local bar here in So Cal hanging out, shooting pool, drinking beers, listening to music, playing guitar, watching stock car racing, or just sitting around talking smack to one another (he had a sense of humor that was razor sharp)... A day with Kyle was always well spent. There is not a day that goes by where myself, or James don't think about him & pray for him. We both miss him terribly and we always will. But at the same time we are, as I'm sure is everyone that knew Kyle, so incredibly grateful that we had him in our lives for the time that we did. I thank God we had the time we did. Kyle was an amazing person, and a great friend.

We argued alot about wether who was the better guitar player and who as the greatest metal band. He was always the better guitar player, and Pantera was the best at metal. Though we argued he was the best friend I had out there. When I was told about his death a year ago I was dumbstruck. I never throught it would hit so close to me. I know people who died, I was there, but never someone this close to me. God Bless and Keep Him. Bobby Sat, 26 Jul 2008 02:06:21 -0700
