I too have not forgotten Kyler, having never having the pleasure of meeting him. What a sweet sweet soul. Somehow I feel my sister, that passed from brain cancer also, has met Kyler in Heaven and she's showing him her horses and her many dogs that she took to Heaven with her. They're having a beautiful time together riding horses and smiling into the beauty and light, until we meet them again. Sweet dreams of love and happiness of Kyler to Kyler's mommy, daddy, and brother and family.

Kyler is not gone. He has moved on to a higher place where there is no pain, no sadness, and no grief. It's an extraordinary place called Heaven. It is so beautiful and wonderful there are no words for it. He can look down and see you any time he wants. It is horrible that he couldn't stay on earth. A pain dno family should have to endure. And I know it's hard to understand right now but there was a reason for all this pain. In time the pain will fade and only the happy times will prevail. I know this from experience. I pray that God is with you during this difficult time, and that you find peace in knowing how many lives your young man has touched. He gave hope to so many people. In today's world that is a rare thing. Rest in peace Kyler.

Kirk, Rebecca and Kirk Jr., you will forever be in my prayers and in my heart. There simply aren't words to express the depths of my sorrow over the loss of your precious boy. I am fervently praying that God will grant you His peace which passes all understanding. Kyler is an angel now and he is watching over you. He'll be with you through every phase of your lives to come , laughing with you, crying with you, enjoying each and every moment with you. He taught so many how to love, and what was truly important. I know I, for one, will never look at love and life the same way again. I truly wish I had gotten to meet him in person, and I hope I will have the opportunity to meet his loving family one day. God bless you all.

Kyler, you are at your everlasting home forever. No more pain and suffering ever. You were very brave for all you went thru. A true example to all. You didn't ask for this, however God has a plan for all of us. He will not put on us more than we can stand, so that is why he took you home to be with him. You were a little cutie on this earth, and you will be a little cutie in heaven. Rest in peace little one.

To the Bradley Family: Our Band of Brothers men's prayer group in Greenville, SC has been praying for Kyler, his parents and family and all those that have surrounded this family with love and kindness since grandfather Randy Bradley made us aware of Kyler's diagnosis on October 18 of last year. Our hearts break today and we continue to pray for peace, comfort and healing for the family. We believe God has used the faith of this 10 year old young man to spread the gospel and we know that God's Word never returns void. We have been honored to have been allowed the privilege to connect through prayer during this most difficult of times. May God bless you and keep you all.
