Kyle and his sister were able to receive their endowments together, and Kyle was able to be one of the witnesses for her sealing a few days later.
Kyle had 40 people present for his setting apart which was the largest group to date for the current Stake President who has served for four years.
There were 25 people who loved Kyle enough to wake up at 2:30 in the morning to go to IHOP for breakfast and then on to the airport for his 6:20 AM departure. This was AFTER 40 loved ones went to Leatherby's ice cream with him the night before. He is well loved and will charm the socks off the people in Tampa, Florida.
Another really cool thing about Kyle entering the MTC is that he flew with one of his best friends from Sacramento to SLC. The two of them were picked up by MY missionary (the one who baptized me when I was 12). How cool is that? I couldn't imagine anything better. My guess is not many have had the same experience......
