Kyle Jon Cashman, 24, formerly of Virginia, MN passed away Friday, January 12, 2018 at his home in St. Cloud, MN. Kyle was born on February 21, 1993 in Duluth, MN the son of Barry and Rena (Lax) Cashman.
Kyle was a 2011 honors graduate of Roosevelt High School in Virginia. He graduated from Hibbing Community College and was pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Finance at St. Cloud State University.
Kyle was a natural athlete, who could swim like a fish at a very young age. He played football and hockey and was proud to be a Blue Devil. He traveled with his goalie gear in his car, always hoping to find a pick-up game somewhere. Kyle enjoyed fishing and target practice but his real passion was the search for the “elusive upland game chicken” (ruffled grouse hunting). He found peace and solitude in the woods, especially around the family cabin on Birch Lake, the Tomahawk Trail, Big Aspen and Giants Ridge.
Kyle is greatly loved and will be sadly missed by his mother, Rena Cashman, father Barry (Erika Schaffer) Cashman; Grandparents Chuck and Patricia Cashman; Uncle and Aunt John and Sheila Cashman, Uncle Dante Tini, Aunts Jeris Lax and Rene Lax; Cousins: Chloe Cashman, Jenna Cashman, Beau Elkington, Bambi (Doyle) Shelby, Jamie Holmes, Nikki (Sam) Aluni; Nephew Oliver Ross; Step-Siblings Nic Strachan and Alexa (Aaron Ross) Strachan; Step-grandparents Bill and Peggy Schaffer; Step-aunts Victoria Schaffer and Christine Suihkonen; numerous extended family members and his many, many friends. Special thanks to: Rebecca Maki, Lynnette Lovejoy, Faye Akerman and their families for always treating Kyle like their own son and Kyle’s “blood brother” and roommate Dylan (Chelsea Lavigne) Skramsted for always being there for Kyle.
Kyle was preceded in death by his Grandparents Kenneth and Joan Lax; Aunt LaRae Tini; Uncle Tom Holmes; paternal Great-grandparents Bernard and Agnes Cashman; maternal Great-grandparents Joseph and Emma Cook and great uncle Roland Cook.
Kyle was a kind hearted soul and will be greatly missed.
