Christopher Kyle graduated from Wakefield High School in 1992, where he enjoyed participating in football and baseball. He attended Platte Community College in Columbus, Nebraska, where he participated in the singing ensemble Chorale, directed by John Putnam. He received his Bachelor of Science degree from ITT Technical Institute and was employed in St. Paul, Minnesota until the pandemic. Kyle's last employment was as a shift lead at Walgreens in Wayzata, Minnesota.
Kyle enjoyed teasing and playing jokes on everyone and was a fan of Star Wars and Star Trek. Kyle was also known as a diehard fan of Nebraska Football. Every time you saw Kyle he was wearing something Big Red!
