A Celebration of Life will be held Wednesday, October 20th at 10:00 a.m. at Meadowbrook Baptist Church in Robinson, Texas with Pastor Cary Killough presiding. Burial will follow at Waco Memorial Park. Visitation will be Tuesday, October 19th from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at Wilkirson-Hatch-Bailey Funeral Home. Kyle was born on October 24th, 1975 to Donald Fred Schill and Mary Jane Schill in Houston, Texas. As a child he often spent his weekends and summers at his grandparents’ ranch in Donie, Texas. The family later moved to Donie to help run the family ranch, SW&S Cattle Company, where they raised and showed Charolais cattle. Kyle graduated from Groesbeck High School in 1994 and then attended Trinity Valley College earning a degree in Ranch Management. In 2005, Kyle met his wife, Shay, and they were united in marriage on February 18, 2006. Together they created a life in Robinson, Texas with their four beautiful children: Taylen, Laken, Finley and Channing. Kyle was a devoted husband, a loving father, son, brother, uncle and a loyal friend to all. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, watching football and old westerns; however, his absolute favorite pastime other than being at his kids’ events was life at the ranch and sharing it with his children. Kyle was employed by RDO Equipment Company in Hewitt, Texas, for the past 15 years, where he was in his element of never meeting a stranger and working on a “heck-of a deal”. He made lifelong friends not only with his colleagues, but with the customers he served. Kyle is reunited in heaven with their two daughters, Lainie Grace Schill and Harper Reese Schill; his beloved mother, Mary Jane Schill; his paternal grandparents, Gilbert Pier Schill and Hazel Louise Schill; his maternal grandparents, Arthur Benjamin Lewis and Lillian Lucille Lewis; his cousin, Case Bradley Beken. He will be forever loved and missed by his devoted wife of 15 years, Shay, and their loving children, Taylen Paige, Laken Dean, Finley Marie and Channing Reese; his father and best friend, Donald Schill and wife, Kathy of Donie, Texas; his adored big brother, Craig Schill and wife, Elyse of Donie, Texas; his dearly loved sister, Debby Smith and Lee Ivey of Houston, Texas; his nieces, Kimberly, Danielle, Kaitlin and Ellie; nephews, Trent, Tyler and Luke; his beloved uncles and aunts, Sonny and Carol Lewis, Lucille Gaskamp, Larry and Peggy Lewis; his in-laws, Len and Sherri Williams; along with his numerous cousins, great nieces, great nephew and a countless number of friends from far and near.
