Our amazing son, Kyle R. Driessen, was welcomed into the arms of Jesus Sunday, July 13. He passed away peacefully at home. Kyle entered our lives on December 15, 1996 and never failed to surprise us throughout his 17 short years. Kyle had his special way of communicating, those who knew him always heard him loud and clear. He enjoyed seeing his sister or friends getting into trouble. He loved his years at Syble Hopp School, he made many great friends and received the best care while being there as. In Kyle's free time he enjoyed playing baseball through the Miracle League, running with myTEAM TRIUMPH and the summer program at the CP Center. Kyle was always perfect in our eyes. We know he is now able to run and talk everyone's ear off. No more doctors' appointments, meds or seizures. We are anxious to see him again and take much comfort knowing he is "home" and free of the struggles he encountered. He is survived by his parents John and Amy, his biggest supporter sister Emily, Grandparents John and Carol Brennan (Berlin, WI), Great Grandma Christina Shellabarger (Green Lake, WI); Aunts and Uncles: Godparents Keith and Paula Driessen (Little Chute, WI); Sharon and Paul Sprangers (Colville, WA); Gary and Chris Driessen (San Antonio, TX); Deb and Steve Mollen (Darboy, WI); Mary and John Eimmermann (Darboy, WI); Peggy and Eric Brinkmann (Kimberly, WI); and John and Kristi Brennan (Prior Lake, MN); and many awesome cousins who have been a great part of his life. He was welcomed into Heaven by his grandparents Robert and Regina Driessen and Daisy, the awesome dog that was ready to protect Kyle at all times. Family and friends may visit Wednesday July 16th at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, 1307 Lourdes Ave DePere from 9-11:45 a.m. The Mass of Christian Burial will be presided by Fr. Tim Shillcox, O. Praem at 12:00 p.m. followed by lunch. Burial will be at Mt. Calvary in DePere. Please visit www.ryanfh.com to send online condolences to Kyle's family.
