Cary Keith Kyle, age 72, of Uniontown, PA, passed away on Friday, November 25, 2022 after a very long, courageous battle with cancer.

Known as Keith to his family and friends, he was born on Saturday, September 9, 1950, in Brownsville, PA, to the late Andrew Robert and Marion Jean (West) Kyle.

Keith graduated from Brownsville High School in 1968.  He graduated in 1972 with a bachelor's degree in Business and Marketing from The Pennsylvania State University (main campus).

Before his 2016 retirement, Keith held vice president and general manager positions in various Southwestern PA river logistic companies:  Hillman Barge and Construction Company (Brownsville, PA), Mon River Towing of the Guttman Group (Belle Vernon, PA), Consol Energy River Transportation Division (Monessen, PA), and Murray Energy (Monessen, PA).

He will be remembered for his loving, caring, mild-mannered personality, contagious laugh, quick wit, competitive spirit, excellent work ethic, and beautiful blue eyes.  Keith was truly one of a kind, a devoted family man, an absolute gem of a man, and a tender, loving, caring husband, father, son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, relative, and very best friend.  His energy and spirit will be greatly missed by family, friends, and all who love him.

Keith loved his family (most of all "his girls," his wife and daughters) and friends, music, the beach, his flower bed gardens, movies, board and card games, concerts, nature, photography, reading, traveling, the theater, and the Christmas holiday season.  He also enjoyed creating homemade Christmas bead and other ornaments, playing golf, basketball, and racquetball, watching sports, and writing beautiful, original poetry.

In addition to his parents, Keith was proceeded in death by his three brothers: Robert A. Kyle, James Kyle and John Kyle and his sister, Eileen (Kyle) Miller and his father-in-law and mother-in-law, George W. and Bessie (Lebder) Meadows.
