Kyle dedicated his career to Mike Taylor Construction Co., where he was known for his unwavering work ethic and deep passion for his job.

Throughout his life, Kyle embraced a variety of hobbies and interests that showcased his vivacious spirit.

His big heart was evident in his willingness to help others, and he treasured the time spent with family and friends.
