On December 29, 2008, Mitchell Goff and Leslie Bruder welcomed the most perfect complexioned, blue-eyed, and dark-haired baby girl, Kylie Marie Goff, in Alexandria, MN. She grew up in Long Prairie and her big and vibrant personality was apparent from the beginning. When Kylie was little, she loved to dance, play Xbox, and was a natural at horseback riding. She was happy-go-lucky and was known to say “oh man” frequently. Kylie was blessed with a live-in best friend, her sister, Haydn. She adored her sister and thought the absolute world of her. When talking about best friends, “Anna-Banana” can’t be forgotten. From a very young age, they had a strong and deep connection and shared many shenanigans. Kylie had several cousins who were raised right by her side and could be described as having a sibling relationship.
In middle school, Kylie met the love of her life, Nikko, on bus #14. Their relationship was described by their families as the real deal. Nikko was Kylie’s other half and a huge and important part of her life. Nikko’s house and parents became her second home. Not only did Kylie bring out the best in Nikko, but she brought out the best in everyone around her. She was outgoing but humble, protective, loyal to her family and friends, and will be remembered for including everyone, especially those being excluded. Kylie attended and played softball at Long Prairie High School and worked as a waitress at Countryside. Making people smile, 4-wheeling, camping, drawing, shopping, and driving her Pontiac G6 were just a few things that filled her cup. She adored Nikko’s dogs and loved her cats dearly. She was outspoken and tactfully told people how she saw things. Kylie worried about everyone and always put others first. She will never be forgotten and she will be thought of every time her friends and family see a butterfly.
Kylie is survived by her parents, Mitchell Goff and Leslie Bruder; sister, Haydn Goff; boyfriend, Nikko Donovan; best friends, Anna Gerads and Katie Karl; grandparents, Melinda and Allen Bruder, Jill (Jeff Becker) Goff, Great-Grandma Stevens, and Great-Grandma Pooler; uncles, Matthew Goff, Dean Terwey, and Jeffrey Becker; aunts, Heather Tesch, Jackie Goff, and Crystal Becker; cousins, Averee and Lanie Terwey, Dakota (Willow Hartley) Goff and Devon Golombiecki, Kendra, Sylvia, Kierra, and Makayla Goff; and Nikko’s parents, Mike Donovan and Laura Korteum.
She was preceded in death by her aunt, Nikki Schoegel; uncle, Donald Terwey; great-grandparents, Fred Tesch, Kenny Stevens, Gene Goff, Bruce Goff, Raymond and Virginia Bruder, and Great-Grandpa Pooler.
