Kyle Matthew Hennum was born on May 23, 1993, in Fargo ND to Peter and Sandy Hennum (Trandem). Kyle grew up in Bemidji and graduated from Bemidji High School After graduation he worked for T and K outdoors, where he loved to be outside in nature. He was known as a quiet and kind soul; if you broke through his exterior, you were a friend for life. He had an avid love for cats, dogs, music, and had a wonderful sense of humor. He also loved to cook. Building campfires and gathering his friends and family around campfires was what he did best. He was a devoted son, brother, grandson, friend, and cousin. Kyles's life would seem too short to many, but those who were touched by him understood that the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives. "You never said I'm leaving, you never said goodbye. You were gone before we knew it, and only God knew why. A million times we needed you, a million times we cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death, we love you still. In our hearts, you hold a place that no one could ever fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God took you home." Author Unknown.

his Grandparents, Duane and Mary Trandem, and Maxine Hennum as well numerous cousins.
