Kyle Pratt
November 6, 1989 — April 21, 2013
Kyle R. Pratt, 23, passed away Saturday, April 20, 2013 at Advocate Lutheran General in Park Ridge.
He was born November 6, 1989 to Joseph and Judy (Schaefer) Pratt. A 2008 graduate of Crystal Lake South.
His love of adventure served him well in his pursuit of golf, fishing, baseball, skateboarding, and snowboarding to name a few. In recent years his newest passion and career path was cooking. At the time of his death he was the second cook at Coleman’s in Cary. Kyle was just starting out, but he had his sights set on eventually becoming “Top Chef.”
Kyle was always known as a generous individual. Per Kyle’s final wishes at becoming an organ donor he was able to give others hope and more time to reach for their dreams. So to his family he achieved the highest goal of being a “Hero” and giving hope to others.
In addition to his parents, he is survived by his grandmother, Lillian Schaefer of Huntley, IL; uncle, Donald Schaefer of Colorado Springs, CO; aunt Ella (Gordon) Russel of Woodstock, IL; cousins, Zach Schaefer of Chicago, Carrie (Jason) VanDaele of Davenport, IA, Haley (Mark) Wisner of Woodstock, IL, Todd (Jessica) Russel of Woodstock, IL, and Carly (Tom) Russel of Gilbert, AZ.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Raymond Schaefer and Auvergne and Amelia Pratt.
A memorial visitation for Kyle will be held Wednesday, April 24, 2013 from 3 p.m. until 8 p.m. with a memorial service beginning at 7 p.m., Davenport Family Funeral Home, 419 E Terra Cotta Ave (IL Rt 176) Crystal Lake, IL 60014.
