MCGONIGAL

Kyle Lee McGonigal, 33, of Urbana, died Wednesday, October 5, 2022, in his residence.

Born May 19, 1989, in Springfield, he was a son of Douglas Lee and Tamara Melissa (Fink) McGonigal. Kyle graduated from Northeastern High School in 2007 and went on to attend the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology. He then worked professionally as a welder for Dole Fresh Vegetables in Springfield for many years.

His family was the highlight of his life, and his favorite pastime was spending time with his children. Kyle was a jokester to his core and loved making others laugh, especially the kinds of jokes that cannot be said in public. He also loved partaking in any activity that would make his mother and grandmother worry such as riding dirt bikes and snowboarding. In his free time Kyle enjoyed shooting guns, riding his Harley Davidson, and coaching both baseball and softball. He could always be seen with either a Monster or cold Coors Light in his hand, particularly on gamedays watching his Penn State Nittany Lions which he has supported since childhood.

Kyle is survived by his parents Doug and Tami McGonigal; grandmother Sheila Amrine; fiancée Candace DePriest; children Isaiah Drake, Anastin McGonigal, Waylon McGonigal; sister Courtney (Cody) Unangst; niece and nephew Kylan and Koden Unangst; best friends Lee (Chelsea) Nelson, Colt (Celeste) Nelson, Jerry (Katrina) DePriest, Dwana (Logan) Holland; many aunts, uncles, cousins, and a host of other friends and his four-legged companion Chloe.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents Richard and Glenna McGonigal, and great-grandmother Florence Shaw.

The family will receive friends on Sunday, October 9, 2022, from 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM in the EBERLE-FISHER FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORY, 103 North Main Street, London, Ohio 43140.

In lieu of flowers the family suggests that memorials in Kyle's name be mailed to the South Vienna Youth Sports Association, c/o Amber Gladman, PO Box 21, Catawba, Ohio 43010, or sent through Venmo at @SouthVienna-YouthSports.
