I was so sorry to hear of Kyle's death. I am out of town & a friend called me. He was a great man that I had the pleasure of knowing since I was very young. He & J.B. leased my dad's first service station. I will remember him always.

Kyle was surely my good friend. He was "Best Man" at our wedding. We went a lot of miles together. He will always hold a special place in Jackie's and my hearts.
