Kyle Wayne Garrigan, Sr., age 45, began his journey to the happy hunting grounds on Saturday, July 19, 2025, at his home in Red Lake, MN.

Kyle was born on April 05, 1980, in Red Lake, MN, to Sherry Garrigan of Red Lake, MN and Duane Cook, Sr., of Fargo, ND. Kyle moved home about 2 years ago to take care of his mother whom he adored. He was so full of life, he always had a smile or a big bear hug for family & friends, he was a very respectful young man he was always a joy to be around he loved to terrorize anyone who knew him and he sure had a laugh that was worth a million. Kyle was always willing to help anyone out that needed him. Kyle accomplished whatever he put his mind to, he was eager to get on the road and put his CDL to use and travel in those big Semi's. He graduated from Red Lake High School in 1998.

Kyle was a hardcore Minnesota Vikings fan and loved watching basketball plus he was a part of the 1997 Red Lake Warriors Section 8A
