Kyler was born on January 12, 2003 in Bedford, Texas to his parents, Rudy and Pat Young. At home waiting to meet their little brother, was his two big sisters, Karlee and Kaylin. Kyler, being the youngest and the only boy in the family, was loved to the fullest. Growing up, Kyler spent his summers at the rec center swimming and never wanted to get out of the water. Bribery worked for these occasions. He was also known for being a prankster. He would put confetti in birthday cards for certain family members. Surprise! He would laugh when the cards were opened and confetti went everywhere. Kyler, standing at 6 ft 9 inches tall was called a gentle giant with the biggest heart. Some of his favorite things are his dog, Thunder, video games, movies, Jack Skellington, Scouting, and family. Kyler liked anything that had pizza in it's name. Kyler was well on his way to becoming a Tiktok Star and professional Gamer. Kyler attended Flower Mound High School and graduated in May 2022. He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Young Adult Ward in Coppell, Texas.
