God has called his faithful servant Kyler Allen Cook home Jan. 13, 2026, to tend to his heavenly pastures. Kyler was born to Kelby and Maggie Cook on Jan. 1, 2011.
Kyler, our family is forever blessed you were gifted to us. Our favorite times to recall are our many family vacations when we were all packed in our RV. Our entire family loved fishing, and we treasure every moment spent out on the water together. You loved all things outdoors — hunting, four-wheeling, snowmobiling; you would look for any excuse to get out and enjoy life.
You were so gifted with operating machinery, and from early on, you were Dad’s working partner. Your faith grounded you; you knew who you were and had your own style. We will forever cherish how good you were to your family, especially your siblings. You had such a care for your brothers and sisters. You always wanted to defend and protect them no matter what.
God gifted you with a strong conscience. You knew his will and how to serve him. You are a good and faithful son. We will miss your spunk, especially when you were in a goofy mood. You were so funny. You found a true happiness to this life.
We thank God for blessing you with so many friends. We are so thankful to all of your friends for all the time spent in the barn with you.
Your true love was farming. You saw and loved the beauty of all God’s creation.
LLKC. Live Like Kyler Cook, Long Live Kyler Cook. Until we meet again … Cha Right.
Love, Dad, Mom, Kaelyn, Kinley, Kase, Kam and Kya.
