Kyle was an amazing young man with an old hippie soul who had a passion for cooking, art, and music. He attended culinary training at JVS and worked at many restaurants in the Cleveland area like Nemo’s and Dante’s Inferno. Being a rock ‘n roll music lover (Black Sabbath, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Slipknot), he had a tattoo of “Stairway to Heaven” honoring the people he loved who had passed: his stepfather, Larry “Fooman” Chuppa and his Uncle Lee Kobzowicz. He loved spending time with his NeNe (grandma) baking and cooking and caring for his emotional support dog Ziggy Stardust. He was a loving son, grandson, brother, uncle, and nephew.
Other interests Kyle had included: studying, Edgar Allan Poe, watching movies like My Cousin Vinny, Nightmare Before Christmas, and Beetlejuice and learning about history and geography. His main passion was creating art with his culinary skills.
