Please except my deepest symphathy for your loss. I met Kurt at the Marriott Wardman Park Hotel at the Blacks In Government (BIG) Annual National Training Conference, 2004. My sorority was there also, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorotiy, Inc (AKA) for another event. Kurt saw my AKA pin I was wearing and informed me that some sorority members were at the hotel.
