Kyle Henry Teunissen was born on August 9, 1981, in Sioux Center, IA, to Harvey and Beverly (Robyn) Teunissen. He attended Sioux Center Christian School and Sioux Center High School. While he was attending school, he loved to help his parents at T&T Family Pet Center. After high school, he worked a few different jobs, including working alongside his dad at Double H Manufacturing. Kyle then found his passion for cooking while working at Doc’s. He gained his Kitchen Manager experience at the Hatchery in Orange City, IA. He then moved to Sioux Falls, SD, and worked at Wiley’s.
When 212 The Boiling Point exchanged hands, Kyle followed his friend and became, “the face, the personality, the support system, the maintenance man… he wasn’t just a great chef, he was a culinary genius. He loved to feed everyone around him. His unique style and mixing random ingredients won many cooking awards.” (Kyle James).
Kyle had an extreme love for all types of music. He was known for his unconventional style and his heart of gold. You could usually find him skateboarding, tinkering and modifying bikes, watching horror movies, and dressing up either in suits or costumes.
Kyle was known for his heart of gold and being the politest person you will ever meet. No matter what you were doing, he made sure you were having fun. He really came out of his shell when he fronted the band “Mod Psyx” and later joined “Fatal Imbalance”. He is infamous for his solid black tattoos that displayed his personality and the things that he liked, without rhyme or reason to anyone else…
There will never be another human as iconic as our ‘KyleStyle’.
Kyle is survived by his parents, Harvey (Lori) Teunissen and Beverly Teunissen; siblings, Melanie (Chuck) Dumas, Timothy (Michaela) Teunissen, and Toni (Quentin Struble) Dumas; maternal grandparents, Arthur and Mary Robyn; many aunts and uncles; and many nieces and nephews that he adored.
Kyle was proceeded in death by his infant sisters, Kelli Mae and Kalinda Jean Teunissen; paternal grandparents, Anthony and Hilda Teunissen; several aunts and uncles; and many friends.
