I received devastating news today…Kyle Wallace died Wednesday morning, August 17th while playing kickball with the kids at PE…he died doing what he loved the most…playing with kids.
Kyle is a 1998 graduate of Simpson Academy was 36 years old. He as a member of the MSU football team where he played on the offensive line. …and a coach at Yazoo City High School.
Kyle graduated with my son Breck….and let me tell you….everyone loved Kyle. I remember so well before a big SCA game, Kyle allowed the team to shave his head while sitting in my front yard! He always had a smile…unless you were across the line from him! He was truly a gentle giant.
Kyle’s mother, Cynthia, is a former choir director at the First United Church in Magee. His sister, Casey, is a 1992 graduate of Simpson Academy (she and my oldest son Dickey were classmates. The middle man, Brock, was tough as Kyle. Kyle’ s dad, Bruce died as a young man but I do not remember his age. Bruce and I believe Price Wallace had Wallace Tractor Company for several years in Mendenhall.
Kyle was an outstanding coach at Manchester Academy.
He is survived by his wife, a son, and a daughter.
I’m sorry, ya’ll…I just can’t write much. My heart is broken…and I can’t even wrap my head around the words that need to be written.
I will post additional information…but right now…all I can do is cry…Kyle was my friend…and I loved him.
