Mr. Kite was born December 30, 1961, in GA son of the late James Douglas Kite, Sr. and Betty Joyce Stilwell Kite. He was employed at Diverse Mechanical where he was a supervisor in the Metal Fabrication department. He had a small farm and loved every minute he spent working on it. Mr. Kite enjoyed working with his hands and just piddling with things. Most of all he loved his family, especially his six grandchildren. We will remember him as a simple man who enjoyed the simple pleasures in life - his family, friends and farm. Thank you for all of the good memories.
Mr. Kite was preceded in death by his parents, James and Betty Kite and a brother.
Survivors include his three daughters, Angel Morgan (Clint), Clresia Pearce (Drew) and Jaycie Kite; mother of his children Barbara Kite Cutchen; one brother and two sisters; six grandchildren, Kadyn Pearce, Braylyn Morgan, Jacob Morgan, Kalen Pearce, Kason Pearce and Luke Morgan; numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
