So sorry to here about Kyle's death.I got to know him when he was in Pickens at First Baptist Church and while playing football at Pickens High. He was really full of energy. I was looking forward to seeing him this summer when he came to visit Pickens again. He was one of my favorite young guys. He will also be missed by his friends here in Pickens.
I will continue to pray for you and your family in in the days ahead. May you feel God's presence ever so near.

I remember playing with Kyle in the Midnight Sun tournament a few years ago. We were ridiculously short-benched, but we almost won the tournament, largely due to Kyle's efforts. A fun guy who loved hockey. He will be missed.

Amelia and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Kyle was a fine young man and I saw him occasionally in Anchorage. We always chatted. He had become quite a young man, but I do remember carrying him into your house at night in Nome as he slept. I remember picking him up for school.
Just remember no one is dead until they are forgotten.
Hugs,
Thom

I was shocked by the news. You were such a wonderful cousin. I always enjoyed our visits. I know how you loved to bring us out to eat. Chili's was bomb. I was so honored when you asked for our kids to be in your wedding before the plans changed. I will miss our talks and love yous at the end of every conversation. My condolences to his mother, Amelia and stepfather. I bought flowers To be delivered but they called me yesterday and told me they could not until Monday. Love you cuz.

Dearest Kyle,
You will never be forgotten my sweet. I recall the early days when you came to live with your grandparents, John and Alvilda Dickerson. You were an adorable little boy who was "full of vinegar"...such a sweetheart. Even at an early age you saw fit to be my five year old boyfriend!
You joined Alvilda and I each day as we walked the three miles around Geist, University, Parks Highway and Airport Road. We walked all summer and into fall. We watched as the "fireweed" crept up to its tips and we watched the geese and Sandhill cranes return home as a nip in the air reminded us of impending winter days to come.
It seems impossible for you to grow up so quickly, but you did. You grew into an intelligent and caring young man.
You stood so tall and proud at your grandpa's 90th birthday party in Fairbanks. I had difficulty believing it was the same little 5 year old. You were a tall and strinkingly handsome young man. Me heart filled with pride just looking at you. You were after all, my little 5 year old "boyfriend"
...
Our hearts ache because you are no longer here to give us hugs and smiles, we will have to wait until we see your beautiful face again.
Kyle, please know that you are loved and missed our little dear one, until we meet again...
all my love.
