Kyle Anthony Eichler
Kyle Anthony Eichler, age 33, a resident of Chillicothe, Missouri, passed away on Thursday, March 19, 2020, at Hedrick Medical Center, Chillicothe, Missouri.
Kyle was born the son of Tony and Linda (McElwee) Eichler on March 13, 1987, in Chillicothe, Missouri. Kyle lived at home with his parents all of his life.
When Kyle was very young, he called himself Kyles, because he was told, "that's not Kyles" when he was curious about something that didn't belong to him. He was a lover of the great outdoors, hunting, cutting wood, and cutting grass. When he was younger, going outside in the cold in his sock feet and no jacket on, didn't seem to bother him! Tinkering with things became a hobby of sorts. He could take anything apart and put it back together. He could figure out how to fix stuff or make it work. He would always work on that truck of his; always thinking of a better way to make it run and look better. Just working with his hands made him happy. He had a rescue dog he called Scooter for 15 years that became a good companion to him. Lately, their black cat he named Key-Key would curl up and sleep alongside of him. His tender, loving, compassionate personality displayed itself with his family, especially his daughter and son. At Hailey's last birthday party, he was on the floor with her as she tied together a blanket. Kyler enjoyed many rides on the Four Wheeler, mini bike, or Go Kart with his dad. Oh how he is loved, and Kyle loved. Kyle loved and cherished the many friends that crossed his path. He would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it. He is already greatly missed by those that truly knew, loved, and understood him. Rest in peace "Kool Kyle".
