Kyle loved to play Trivia Games and was in a league with his friends. He loved listening to music with Punk Rock being his favorite, playing games on his Xbox with his friends and brothers, spending time with his niece and nephew, and being with his friends and family. Kyle truly was trying to live life to the fullest and had goals that he was well on his way to meeting.
