Kyle Lorn O'Neal

February 25, 1977 - October 8, 2024

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce Kyle O’Neal, born on February 25, 1977, took his final bow on October 8, 2024. A vibrant and playful spirit, Kyle left behind a legacy of laughter, love, and unforgettable moments. His personality was beyond compare; he was intensely funny, passionate, and caring. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Kyle leaves behind a loving family which includes his son Cory O’Neal, daughter Kacey O’Neal, daughter Kristy O’Neal, and son Dagen Moore, along with his brother Danny Sean O’Neal, and sister Peggy Moore. His memory will be lovingly carried on through his grandchildren: Ella, Gabriel, and Lilah O’Neal. Kyle now joins his father, Danny O’Neal, and mother, Judith Howard, who preceded him in passing.

With a love for life that was contagious, Kyle relished small pleasures. He enjoyed savoring a Cherry Pepsi, watching one of his favorite horror films or some WWE. He was a massive fan of the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets, and did his best to never miss a game. He also found peace in surfing, and his favorite colors to wear were black and green, to honor his love of Ireland.

Music played a pivotal role in Kyle’s life, with My Chemical Romance, Alkaline Trio, Weezer, and Smashing Pumpkins forming the soundtrack of his existence. Yet, nothing mattered more to Kyle than family. He was deeply committed to those he loved and was known for his belief in seeing the best in others and his unwavering dedication to loving and protecting his family.

Farewell, Kyle. Your infectious spirit, love for life, and admirable dedication to family will continue to live on in the hearts of those you’ve left behind. You will be sorely missed, but your legacy of love and laughter continues to shine bright through those who knew you. Rest easy knowing you have left the world a better place.
