Kyle was born April 11, 1983 in Weatherford to David and Myra Reid. His family moved to Vinita, then to Cushing when Kyle was in elementary school. He attended Sunnyside Elementary School and graduated in 2001 from Cushing High School. Kyle attended Los Angeles Recording Workshop in West Hollywood, Calif., in an attempt to follow his dream of a career in his greatest passion, music. Unable to break into the competitive music business, Kyle moved back home to Cushing. In the summer of 2013, he moved to Florida, seeking an improved life and climate. Most recently, Kyle worked selling wireless services for Verizon in West Palm Beach, Fla. Kyle’s greatest loves were his family, the Beatles, playing and singing blues music on his slide guitar and family vacations involving sun and fun. He caught many fish, some of them big in size.
He is survived by his parents, of Cushing; two brothers, Chris Reid, Cushing, and Kory Reid of Prague; his grandparents, Ken and Phyllis Reid of Weatherford and Norma Jean Cooper of Chandler; and many nieces, nephews and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Harold Deisher; and cousins, Jennifer Saffel and Tiffany Deisher.
