Kyler was born on July 20, 2026, and although his time here was far too brief, the love and happiness he brought into the lives of his family will last forever.

Kyler was a sweet and incredibly happy baby whose beautiful smile could brighten any room. From the moment he entered this world, he was surrounded by a family who absolutely adored him. Every cuddle, every smile, and every precious moment with Kyler became a gift that his family will carry in their hearts for the rest of their lives. Kyler was baptized on September 20th, 2026, but Jesus said "Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven" Matthew 19:14, Baptismal Sponsors - Courtney Voorhies and Warrington Greengrass.

Kyler was preceded in death by his maternal great-grandparents Gary Jacobson, Shirley and Harley Ankeny, Tom Voorhies, and paternal great-grandfather Leonard Lewallen; his paternal grandfather, John Goetzke; his maternal great-aunt and great-uncle, Renee and John Jacobson, parents of Micah and Shara, Katie and Namen, Nikki and Cody, Cory and Brooke, and Sara and Ethan, his maternal great aunt and uncle Rhonda and Dean Junge, his maternal aunt Connie Voorhies, parent of Connie Jo and Paul, Heather, and Frankie and Joedy, his paternal great aunt Lori Lewallen and his paternal uncle, Andrew Goetzke.
