I am so sad to hear of your sudden passing. I keep flashing through memories of your smiling face and hearty laughter. I'm glad that I had the chance to know you back in the LCHS days on the field at track practice. I am proud to see that you accomplished so much in your short life. May God keep you in his loving arms and comfort the family and friends that you leave behind.

Kyle, I just found out about your untimely passing Nupe. I miss hanging out with you at Notre Dame. You were always a bright spot with a big smile on your face every time I saw you. To go so young must mean that God wanted you with him in Heaven to make him laugh. I pray that your family finds solace in your heavenly presence and peace in this difficult time. You will be missed and mourned. Peace forever NUPE! You have reached that Golden Shore.

YITB,

Scott

Kyle and I were track and field teammates at Laguna Creek High School and we were roommates for two years at UC Davis. I will always remember Kyle for his humor and way with people. He had an uncanny way of starting a conversation with anyone and was always a positive guy to be around. I'll also remember him for his drive and ability to set a goal and achieve it. My deepest and sincerest condolences to John and Barbra.

Kyle Smith appeared in my court on a frequest basis a few years ago. He was a great advocate for his clients and a credit to his profession. I always enjoyed our off the bench conversations, particularly his fondness for Louisiana cooking. He will be remembered by me as a kind, hardworking man with a wonderful sense of humor.
