Kyle Dean Jenkins, of Hockley, Texas, passed away December 15, 2025, in Eugene, Oregon. Kyle was born in Cypress, Texas on May 22, 1989. Kyle was a fun-loving father, caring husband, devoted son, playful uncle, and loyal friend.

Kyle grew up on 15 acres in Cypress where a childhood full of unforgettable experiences helped shape his adventurous spirit. Kyle grew up with a love for horses, 4 wheelers, and tractors. This love led him to participate in cutting horse shows with grandfather, Arthur French. Kyle attended elementary, junior high, and high school at Cypress Christian School.

Kyle's love for adventure and running heavy machinery led him to a successful career in the construction industry where he got to do what he loved every day of his life—working outdoors, running big machines, and being the boss. Kyle's passion for the outdoors and adventure took him, Stacie, and Tyler on unforgettable experiences few people would ever consider.

Kyle is survived by his wife, Stacie Jenkins, son, Tyler Jenkins, father, Bradley D. (Leann) Jenkins, sister, Ashley (Nate) Sorbel, nephews, Jonathan and Jackson Sorbel, brother, Heath Jenkins, grandfather, Arthur French, uncles, Kirk Springer and Mike Hancock, and aunts, Laura Martin and Becky Hancock. He was preceded in death by his mother, Tracey A. Jenkins, his grandmothers, Sheron French, and Glenda Johnson, and his grandfather Billy Dean Jenkins.

A memorial service will be held on December 29, 2025, at 2 p.m. at Klein Funeral Home, 16131 Champion Forest Drive, Spring, TX 77379. The viewing will begin at 1 p.m. on the same day.
