Kyle's obituary

Kyle was a 28 year old man with his whole life ahead of him. That life was cut short on June 9th, 2025 after a lifelong struggle with mental health. 

When he was able to find moments of happiness, as sparse as they may have been, his favorite things included being Irish, the military, video games, Japanese and Celtic swords, dressing up in tactical gear and exploring throughout the woods, talking about science, a wide variety of music from jazz to heavy metal and everything in between, and getting together with the very few friends who actually loved him for him. Kyle desperately wanted to be accepted in a world where people are trying to force others into a box. Kyle never wanted to conform or have his narrative written. He was going to write his own - up until the very last moment. Kyle was loved deeply by the few people who actually knew him. It was not always easy, but knowing Kyle was always worth it. He was a bright light in a world of people who are desperate to force others into “the box.” He will be so desperately missed forever, and his story will be heard for years to come. May his soul be at peace.
