Chris Kyle

Charlie’s brother Geoff (my step father) did pass away in South Africa but died of a brain haemorrhage not some mysterious African parasite. It’s very true Charlie and Geoff were very much the polar opposites, even more so with the third brother John. Geoff was more a family man with fantastic values and an ambition to live a better life abroad. A great sportsman, running for county with Morpeth Harriers alongside Jimmy Alder whom went on to bigger success in the sport and, almost, playing lawn bowls for England. Geoffs greatest achievement was raising another man’s children as his own. Giving them his name, his all, and his unconditional love. Although born to a different father, I have proudly carried the surname Kyle since immigrating to SA at the age of 9 back in 1982. Geoff left a lasting impression on all he came into contact with. Loved by many and now, missed by a few.
