Kyle "Smalls" James Trombly

My beloved son, Kyle, the youngest of 6, was born on August 2, 1990, at Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. Kyle passed away on Sunday, August 25, 2024, at the intersection of Highway 72 and Indiana doing what he loved most, riding his motorcycle. He was enroute to Coal Creek Canyon, a truly picturesque and scenic ride, when his journey was unexpectedly interrupted, and a new journey began. With deep gratitude I thank God Kyle did not suffer but went home to be with the Lord in glory without delay.

Kyle had a profound love for his family and friends. His warm eyes and priceless smile reflected his joyful spirit! He is survived by his mother, Kathaleen Trombly; his grandmother, Martha Nichols; his grandfather, Rod Trombly, grandmother, Donna Trombly; his sisters, Crystal Prado, Stephanie Romero, Maresa Goodenough, and Lanae Harper, brother, Jonathan Tuenge, as well as girlfriend Alyssa Harris, brothers-in-law, aunts, uncles, and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Kyle is remembered by many friends and family from California to Virginia, and fellow members of the fire service of which he served 13 years and considered his second family!

Kyle commenced his firefighting career as a volunteer at the Fairmount Fire Department, subsequently serving with the Gilpin County Fire. He was accepted into the Arvada Fire Department on May 5, 2011, and officially became a career firefighter on March 10, 2016. Throughout his tenure, Kyle was assigned to Arvada Fire Stations 7, 6, 4, and 1. Kyle held the Honor Guard in high esteem and sincerely valued his service in this distinguished unit. He devoted a decade of service at Bandimere Speedway, where he operated within the EMS unit and managed the racers at the starting line.

Kyle was a man of many interests and approached life with enthusiasm. Growing up in Colorado he enjoyed everything this state had to offer, camping, fishing, hunting, skiing, hiking, golfing, and motorcycling, which were often accompanied by friends or family. He enjoyed life to the fullest and prided himself on his obsessive attention to detail, and his relentless pursuit of knowledge that stemmed from an aversion to not knowing how to do something motivating him to master any subject or project he encountered. A man of faith, he lived life abundantly and was generous in his service to his community, family, friends, and anyone in need.

Our children are a gift from the Lord, (Psalm 127:3) and I was blessed to be his mother! Kathaleen Trombly

The Trombly family would like to express their gratitude for the incredible outpouring of care

and support. We love you guys!

A celebration of life for Kyle will be held Saturday, September 14, 2024 from 11:00 AM to 12:30 PM at Faith Church, 6250 Wright St, Arvada, CO 80004.
