Kyle King was born on April, 21, 1958 to Earl Kenneth and Donna Rae (Thompson) King in Perry, OK. He attended schools in Perry, graduating from Perry High School in 1976. After graduation, Kyle went to work for Ditch Witch and was employed there for more than 15 years.

On June 16, 2010 Kyle married his best friend, Teresa Taylor, in Perry, OK. Although their years together were shorter than they had planned, there was a lifetime of love fit into those years.

When he was not working, Kyle enjoyed several hobbies.

He was a member of the St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church, Knights of Columbus, Oklahoma Fire Fighters Association, and the International Association of Professional Firefighters.

Kyle was a selfless and generous man who is described by those who knew him as a goofball. He enjoyed life to the fullest and loved spending time with his family. Kyle King was a brave firefighter, an amazing husband, a loving father, an adoring grandfather, and a faithful and loyal friend. He will truly be missed by his family, friends, and the entire community of Perry.
