The Legacy of Kyle Williams

The Oklahoma Department of Public Safety has dedicated the Boat Oklahoma course to the memory of Kyle Williams, who died tragically as a result of a jet-skiing accident in the summer of 2004. His death resulted in legislation mandating boating safety education. It is his family’s sincere wish that this action will help ensure the safety of future generations.

Kyle was a month shy of his 13th birthday and was one of the kindest, most caring young men you could ever hope to meet. He was an awesome brother to his sister and brother, a great friend, and an outstanding first baseman. He had a contagious laugh and a smile that could light up a room.
