Sorry for your loss. Kevin was a co-worker and one of the best that we had at MITRE. He was hard working, innovative and a joy to work with/for. He was a great defender of this country in his time with the Army prior to his time with MITRE. We will miss him. I will miss him. A great man and one of those special friends.
