I went to school with Kyle from elementry school at Timberlawn through our senior year at Forest Hill. I have a lot of good memories of him and he will be missed. I remember when we were in elementry school playing football and the times we would race against each other. May God be with you in your time of sorrow.

Although I will never be blessed with seeing your smile, nor hearing your voice, I will always cherish the times that I did. As humans, we are only on earth for a short time, never knowing when we will be called home. Now, you will rest in peace with the Lord Jesus Christ, absent of all the worldly challenges and troubles that face us as human beings. You will be missed dearly, but I find comfort in knowing that you will rest in peace for eternity.
All my love and prayers to the Dees family.

I'm not sure what to say. Though I haven't seen him in a long time, Kyle was an awesome guy. A good friend. Kyle and I have many memories from back in the day. He and his parents were so generous and kind-hearted to me back in the early '90's. I'll never forget that. My prayers are with you, Mr. Jamie and the rest of Kyle's family.
With Love in Christ's Name,
John
