The loss of Kyle is one that his family and friends will carry deeply, as they mourn a life taken far too soon and cherish the countless memories he leaves behind. Born in Delaware, Ohio, on April 6, 1992 Kyle was the beloved son of Carmella Sparks and the late Timothy Sparks. He was a free spirit whose adventurous nature and love for life were evident in everything he did. Kyle found his greatest peace outdoors, whether he was hunting, fishing, or simply enjoying nature. He embraced each day with enthusiasm and lived life on his own terms, always seeking the next adventure.

He loved being surrounded by family and friends and often made it his mission to ensure everyone around him was having a good time.

Kyle was a dedicated and hardworking man who served as a supervisor at Tim Sparks Construction. He took pride in his work and was respected by those who worked alongside him. His strong work ethic and willingness to help others reflected the kind of person he was both on and off the job.
Above all else, Kyle loved his family. He was a proud father whose children brought immense joy and purpose to his life. Though his time here was far too short, the love he shared with them and with those closest to him will endure forever.
He is survived by his mother, Carmella Sparks; his step-father, Richard Brenton; his children, Dreylyn, Carver, Jaxon, and Jordon; his siblings, Christopher (Veronica) Sparks, Anthony (Ashley) Sparks, Joseph Preston, Brooklyn Preston, and Peyton Preston; his step-siblings, Audri (Jeremy) Cornell, Cara Santangelo, and James Santangelo; his step-mother, Tina McGuire; his grandmother, Donna Preston, and a multitude of nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who will forever treasure his memory.
