Kyle Edward Poole

Kyle E. Poole passed away on April 28, 2025 at the age of 26. Kyle’s caring spirit and sense of adventure could be felt by almost anyone he met. He was one of the biggest, strongest, fastest, and smartest people his family and friends ever knew.

Kyle’s passions were motocross, mountain biking, anything mechanical, and learning. He was one of the top amateur motocross racers in Colorado in 2019.

While mountain bike racing in July 2020, Kyle suffered a devastating spinal cord injury, leaving him with quadriplegia. Kyle never let this event define him. He lived five years post-injury with the support of his family, friends, caregivers and therapists.  He did all he could while maintaining humor and kindness. 

Kyle graduated from Golden High School in 2017. He lettered in football and mountain biking. He was a lifeguard for the City of Golden. He was planning to graduate from Metropolitan State University this December and will receive his Bachelor’s Degree in History posthumously. 

He is survived by his parents Bret and Marlain. Brother Travis. Grandmothers Anna Ferrara and Norma Stanton. Aunts Andrea George and Susan Bittan. Uncles Ron George and Brad Bittan. Cousins Courtney Vivas, Eric Poole, and Sophia Bittan.
