Kyle was a loving son, brother and friend with a kind heart and an ability to make friends from all walks of life. He will be remembered for his ability to make family and friends laugh. Through Kyle's love of hockey, soccer and lacrosse, Kyle created a bond with families and friends who will forever be a part of our lives. He enjoyed the outdoors and loved boating, fishing and water skiing with family and friends. His true passion was pottery and his artistic ability carried over into the kitchen with his love for food and cooking. As a potter he left us with many beautiful pieces that will be enjoyed in his memory for years to come. He'd planned to give back what he'd learned by becoming a high school art teacher.
