Kyle Patrick Feldt passed away on Friday, January 1, 2021 at home with his adoring wife Anita by his side and surrounded by many loving family members.  Kyle fought a short, courageous battle with Pancreatic Cancer.

Kyle was born in May, 1957, in Oceanside California.  His parents, who preceded him in death are Donald E.  Feldt of Pala, California and Legena A. Dempsey (Greyfox) of Little Rock-Ione, Arkansas.

Kyle always had a strong sense of public service along with a ready grin and a love for fun.  He joined the Army in 1975 and retired in 1998, Sergeant First Class.  This was in combined Service with Active Duty both in Germany and Stateside, including National Guard Service in California and Colorado.

When Kyle retired in 1998 he worked as a Wrangler in Wyoming, a Security Guard  in Colorado and Virginia.  He moved back to Pala, California in September 2001 rejoining the work force at the newly launched Pala Casino Resort and Spa.

In addition Kyle held positions that included Tribal Law Officer and Pala Postal for the Pala Band of Mission Indians.  His strong sense of service  led him to work with the American Indian Veteran Association where he served as a Treasurer.

Kyle had an adventurous, loving spirit that drew him to Military Service, hunting, fishing and travel.  Yet his greatest love and enormous pride was reserved for his large family both near and far.

Kyle is survived by his devoted wife of 32 years, Anita Feldt;

son Donald E. Feldt and wife Kate; daughter Krista E. Reedy, husband Donald R. Reedy II and grandsons Donald III and Donovan, granddaughter Deza'rae and great granddaughter Adriana;

son James B. Alexander and wife Danielle, granddaughters Elsie and Vera Mae and grandsons Sean and Magnus;

daughter Charlotte A. Alexander,

Brother Steven R. Smith and niece Elizabeth; sister Shannon and husband Chuck Lingafelt, niece Leslie and nephew Cameron.

In addition, myriad relatives and friends that Kyle loved deeply.

Kyle was above all a loving husband, father and Opa.  His generosity, loyalty was legend among friends, family and sometimes a needy stranger.  He will be profoundly missed by all who loved and knew Kyle.
