Kyle Terrell Creal Sr.

Kyle Terrell Creal Sr. was born on May 31, 1980 to the late Carolyn (Robert) Person and the late Donnie Creal Sr. in Joliet, Illinois. Kyle left this earth to enter his heavenly home on Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

Kyle spent most of his life growing up in the Joliet/Lockport area, where he attended school, before moving to Minnesota, where he spent his final years.

Kyle accepted Christ and was a member of Second Baptist Church and served under the leadership of Pastor Larry V. Tyler.  He was a faithful member of the Blessing Table, serving the members of the community. He worked for several local warehouses and most recently employed as an Attendant for a local gas station in Minnesota. 

Kyle was the life of the party, if you know, you know. Kyle was a young man with an old soul who loved to listen to his blues and church music. He also loved his children and grandchildren, who will miss him dearly. He was dedicated to his family and was often called upon to be the grill master for family and friends. He never refused to help anyone who called and performed each task with a cheerful heart.

Kyle was preceded in death by his parents, maternal grandfather, paternal grandparents, Barney Creal Sr. and Nezzie Creal.

Kyle leaves to cherish his memories, his children Kalaya, Kyla, Kya, Kyle Jr., Kiyale, Kahzel, and Khadarion; his grandchildren, Demia, Kulture, and Kahzel Jr.; his brothers, Loren (Tamala, deceased) Clayton Sr. and Donnie (Qiana) Creal Jr. and sister, Shalonda (Michael) Clayton-Barnes; his beautiful grandmother, Ida Dantzler; special friend, Tasha Carruthers; favorite cousin, Eunice “Patricia” Creal-Harris; god sister, Sharmeka White-Peck; a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews; and many dear friends.

Kyle will be deeply missed by his family and friends from Joliet to Minnesota. May he rest in Paradise.
