Kyle Peterson, age 35, passed away unexpectedly at his home on 2/9/2022. Kyle was the beloved son of Mark & Char Peterson; dearest brother of Brandon (Rhiannon Lucente) Peterson; doting father of Kennedy Rose; loving partner of Katelyn Dekeyser; adored grandson of Carolyn (the late Russ) Poniewaz & Hilda (the late Donald) Peterson; deeply loved nephew of Randi (Steven) Vicenzi, Alan Brown, Rae Jean (Tim) Walker, Lynn Kanneberg, Gail Peterson & Todd Peterson; amazing cousin of Lindsay (Patrick) Eimerman, Alec (Kelly) Vicenzi, Ryan (Jennifer Wildes) Vicenzi, Andrea Brown, Kacie (Jake) Helgeson, Danica (Henry Arthur) Kanneburg, Shane (Kenna) Kanneburg; best buddy of Nello Cassai; he will also be missed by many, many more relatives & close friends. Kyle grew up in Grafton & graduated from Grafton HS; all while surrounded by childhood close friends. He held a successful career as a leader in manufacturing settings and established many more close friendships with his charismatic personality. As well as working a full-time job, he was also attending UWM; Kyle was just 16 credits short of his bachelor’s degree in Business. As he ventured through life, he held many hobbies; hunting was his passion, he was an avid sports lover, creating art was a beautiful talent he possessed, and his gift for connecting with children was one of his most endearing qualities. This natural love of kids was most obvious when he & Katelyn brought their beautiful daughter, Kennedy Rose, into this world. Through all of his adventures, and relationships built, he was diligent to maintain childhood friends his entire life & never took any friendship for granted; a true appreciation for people. Kyle was always the life of the party, one of the most inclusive people we have ever known & will be dearly missed by more people than we will ever be able to comprehend. Although we lost him too soon, his radiant smile & bigger than life personality will live on in every one of our hearts. A Celebration of Life will be held at Pilgrim United Church of Christ (1621 2nd Ave, Grafton) on Saturday, February 19, 2022 – 4:00 PM. Visitation will be held at the church on Saturday from 2:00 PM – 3:45 PM. Please bring your best stories to encourage laughter, love & appreciation of memories with Kyle.
