Kyle Burton

It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Jonathan "Kyle" Burton, who departed this world on Monday, October 16, 2023.

Kyle was born in Davidson County on June 26, 1982, and throughout his life, he touched the hearts of many with his kindness, love, and unwavering devotion to those he held dear. Born to Gary Wayne Burton and Wanda Kay Walker Burton, Kyle's life was a testament to the enduring power of love and family bonds. He faced life's challenges with a resilient spirit and an unyielding love for the people he cherished.

Kyle had a deep and abiding passion for the outdoors. He found solace in the simplicity of fishing, and his eyes would light up with joy whenever he embarked on a fishing expedition. His nurturing spirit extended to his beloved grandmother, whom he cared for with unswerving dedication. Kyle's culinary talents were well-known, and he delighted in cooking for those he loved, sharing his creations as a symbol of his affection. But it was his role as a father that brought him the most pride and joy. Kyle's heart belonged to his sons, Jonathan Kyle Burton, Jr., and Nickolas Paul Burton. He instilled in them the values of love, respect, and the importance of family. His legacy will live on in their hearts. Kyle's love extended beyond the human realm, as he had a deep affection for his chickens and found peace in bird watching. These simple pleasures reflected his gentle and nurturing nature, which he shared with all living creatures.

Kyle was preceded in death by his mother, leaving a void that could never be filled. However, his memory will continue to thrive in the hearts of those who were fortunate to know him.

Left to cherish his memory are his father and stepmother, Gary Wayne Burton and Cynthia Cox Burton, his beloved grandmother, Frances Walker, his devoted brother, Keith Dewayne Burton, and his cherished aunt and uncle, Debbie and Michael Marlowe. Kyle's stepbrothers, Lucas Kennedy and Julius Kennedy, as well as numerous cousins, also share in the enduring love he bestowed upon his family.

A celebration of life service in honor of Jonathan "Kyle" Burton will be held at Friendship Church in Lexington at a later date. Piedmont Funeral Home is honored to serve the family during this difficult time.

Kyle's memory will forever be etched in the hearts of those who were touched by his kindness, love, and gentle spirit. He leaves behind a legacy of family bonds, outdoor adventures, and simple pleasures that will continue to inspire and uplift those who were fortunate to share in his life. May he rest in eternal peace.
