He is survived by his parents, Brenda and Ray Harding of Oxford, NY; his brother Jared Macken and wife Cherokee of Oneonta, NY; his brother Justin Harding and wife Katie of Vestal, NY; his sister Christina Losie and husband Shannon Losie of Davenport, NY; his sister Chenoa Denny of Walton, NY; his brother Chad Harding; and his brother Cody Macken of New York City. He was also cherished by many nieces and nephews who loved him dearly, along with many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He also leaves behind the love of his life, Jill Lattenhauer, with whom he shared a deep and lasting bond.

Kyle was an amazing son, brother, boyfriend, and friend. He was passionate about cooking and had a gift for making sure no one ever went hungry. His compassion extended beyond his family and friends, as he was always willing to give of himself to help those less fortunate. Kyle was not only a beast in the kitchen but had a deep love for sports. He was an amazing athlete and teammate. Kyle had an infectious laugh and a smile that could brighten even the darkest day, and his presence brought warmth and comfort to everyone around him.

He cherished his family and friends deeply, creating countless memories that will continue to inspire love and laughter. Kyle will be remembered not only for his generosity of spirit but also for the joy he brought to the lives of all the people he met. He had a remarkable gift for lifting people up—always hyping others, reminding them how good they were doing, and making sure they knew their worth. His infectious positivity, loyalty, and love touched everyone who was fortunate enough to know him.

A service to celebrate Kyle’s life will be held at Hillington Cemetery in Morris, NY on Sunday, September 14th at 11am. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in his memory to your local food bank or the Lord’s Table in Oneonta, NY.

Kyle’s light will continue to shine through the love he gave and the lives he touched.
