Kyle Klimek

Kyle Clarence Klimek, 39, of Independence tragically passed away December 31, 2025. Kyle was born in Eau Claire, WI on September 16, 1986 to Terry Klimek.

Kyle attended Independence High School and graduated with an HSED from Western Wisconsin Technical College in 2005. Kyle worked most of his life as a factory worker. He absolutely loved fixing anything he could get his hands on, leaving him with the most dirtiest and greasiest hands, but he always had a huge hug for his daughter, who always put a sparkle in his eyes. Kyle had the biggest heart and would give the shirt off his back to anyone. He was extremely proud to look after his Grandma Betty.

Kyle is survived by his daughter and namesake, Kylie; his mother, Terry; grandmother, Betty; and aunt, Tammy (Tam ta Tam).

Kyle is preceded in death by his grandfather, Clarence Klimek; great-grandparents, Emil and Dorothy Konter and John and Francis Klimek.

A prayer service will be held at 6 p.m., Friday, January 9, 2026 at Edison Funeral Home with Father George Thayilkuzhitottu officiating. Family and friends are welcome for visitation from 5 p.m. until the time of the service. Kyle’s favorite thing to wear was a hoodie. His family requests you wear your favorite hoodie to honor Kyle’s memory. Edison Funeral Home is assisting the family.
