Kyle Rush loss her fight to her illness on April 27, 2015 at the age of 19. Kyle was a daughter, sister, aunt and friend to many and died too young. Although she struggled for many years, she embraced the world for all that it was with a passion unmatched by most. The wake is Sunday, May 3rd, 1-5 pm at McDonald Funeral, 19 Yale Ave, Wakefield, MA.

Kyle graduated from Wakefield High School in 2013. She was a co-founder of the WHS Varsity Girls Vollyball Team, member of WHS Colorguard, and member of the Wakefield White Sox. Kyle held a Certificate as a Phlebotomy Technician and hoped to start work in the medical field to help others. For those that knew her, she was a someone with a big heart, open mind, and in true Rush form was never shy about speaking her mind.

In honor of her memory, we are putting together a fund to start a scholarship for a High School student who is suffering and needs money to further his/her education. We are asking for donation in leiu of flowers being sent to the funeral home.
