A tribute to Kyle's life from his niece, Lexi: As many of you know, my dad's brother, my Uncle Kyle Broussard has passed away. To say these past few months have been filled with sadness and heartache would be an understatement. But even in the heartache, they have been filled with so much love and compassion. No words will do my Uncle Kyle justice, but to know him was to love him. He was no doubt the most accepting person that would stand up for anyone, especially the people he loved. He had a way of making you feel so loved without ever having to say it. He had the best sense of humor. If you ever had a conversation with him, you left smiling from ear to ear, and with a stomachache from laughing so much. It was always, come as you are with my Uncle Kyle. We never had to question if he loved any of us, we all knew he loved us and would do anything for us. We don't always remember days, but we remember moments, and I am so thankful for all of the moments I've spent with him that I get to hold in my heart forever. You can't always imagine losing someone so unexpectedly until it's happening, and you're facing it head-on. And when heartache like this happens, your faith and your feelings do not always add up. But what I do know right now is that there is a heaven filled with many people my Uncle Kyle loved and that all of his family here on Earth have the choice to live our life every day to be reunited with him again one day. I don't always understand God in moments like this, but He never asked me to understand Him. He asked me to believe in Him, and it's easy doing that, knowing that He gave me a family that included my Uncle Kyle. There is no doubt that grief is the price of love and how lucky and blessed are we that we have someone that makes saying goodbye so hard. In these past few months, I've seen my family love each other in a way that has shown me that love grows most in the hard ways. I've seen how blessed I am to have a family that loves each other and that chooses to do life together. Life will no doubt be different for all of us, and we will miss him so much, but with each other, we will get through every day. Suffering does not destroy faith, it refines it. Thank you for all the prayers said for our family, it is so appreciated. Please continue to pray for strength for my grandparents, my dad, Uncle Shane, and Paran Anthony. He was the fun uncle for sure.

(Luke 1.78-79) “Because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the showdown of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
