Kyle; three children, Tiffany Martin and husband David of Sulphur, Tila Stansel and husband Bobby of Hackberry; and Layne Kyle and wife Brandy of Hackberry; six grandchildren, Torri Jinks and husband Brandon, John David Martin, Laci Stansel, Kayla Bartholamew, Cameron Kyle and Ethan Kyle; four great grandchildren, Miya Jinks, Taylie Little, Finn Jinks and Marcie Jinks; and six siblings, Hazel Gallegos, J.D.
