Kyle Krueger Obituary

Krueger Kyle Jonathan Krueger embarked on his next journey on August 17, 2015. Born on August 30, 1992, he was 22 in earth years. He graduated from high school in 2010. While some people strive to climb the corporate ladder, Kyle chose to center his life on music, friends, travel and adventure. He lived in Blacklick, Ohio and for two years in Denver, Colorado working at different odd jobs such as warehouse, Drew's Denver Deli, busking and playing in a band: "Little Mikey Colfax and the Social Experiments". He enjoyed traveling the country following his favorite bands, The Grateful Dead, Further, Dark Star and others. Kyle was the life of any party, his charismatic personality attracting friends wherever he went. "He was the funniest person I have ever known," is a common comment made by friends and loved ones. Nonconformist, brash, bombastic, risk taking, smart, funny, loving and kind, he lived his full life the way he wanted and filled the lives of those he loved "Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around" A talented musician, he played drums, percussion, guitar and mandolin. He enjoyed camping, hiking outdoors and playing with his two dogs, Lola and Missy. His greatest passions were playing and listening to music and being with the love of his life, his fiancé, Mekaela Riley. He leaves behind his grieving parents, Jon and Pam Krueger of Blacklick, OH, Mekaela Riley and their unborn child, his aunts, uncles and cousins, and close friends... "What do you want me to do, to do for you to see you through? A box of rain will ease the pain and love will see you through..." A memorial and celebrations of life will be held at a future date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in memory of Kyle to The Rex Foundation www.rexfoundation.org/about/.
