I don't really know what to say or where to start. I cherish every memory I have of you from the age of 5 all thru our lives. When I think of you it puts such a smile on my face, but breaks my heart inside because I know I can't see you or even speak to you. Thats ok because you will always be in my heart.Love Always Miranda Lawson

My sister Pat & family, who are also "my" family. I have no words left to say or to describe anything! All I have is my heart and my love for you. You all have given me the honor of being a part of all of you. Kyle , what a special human being. What a special Daddy, son, brother and nephew. The saying goes, Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a Daddy. Well, "This is Kyle"!! All my love and heart to each of you.

I'll never forget your beautiful smile and comforting touch;the way you had to open my car door because you said that's what men are supposed to do. You would give the shirt off your back to a complete stranger. Your love was so true and genuine.You'll always be with me. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Kelly, May God be with you during this time of sorrow, but really it is not a time of sadness, he is in a better place, that doesn't make it any easier believe me I know, but I'm here for you if you need me and I'm thinking of his kids everyday and mother and all of you, and girlfriend you know I'm thinking of you and wishing I could take the pain away but all I can do is pray and I have been doing that. Love, Holli

Kyle was my very best friend in the world. He is and will be missed by everyone that ever had the pleasure of his company. His smile, his laugh, his sense of humor, his willingness to help out, and his genuine affection were unsurpassed. His mark will remain forever. All my love, as always,
