KYLE BARBEHENN

When I joined the EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs in 1979, I was assigned to Kyle's section and he became my first line supervisor. We hit it off well from the beginning, and I was sorry to leave his group when I switched jobs within EPA a few years later. I can say he was one of the more interesting people I ever worked for, with a unique sense of history as well as an extensive knowledge of the natural world. I wish more of his kind were watching over our world today.

Our heavenly father has given us a life span of 70-80 years if we are especially strong. May you celebrate a life well lived and loved by many. May the words of Psalm 90:10,14 and 94:19 bring comfort to the family.

My sincere condolences to the family. The loss of a dear husband of many years, father, and grandfather is heartbreaking. Cherish the fond memories and may they bring joy to your hearts. May God give you peace and comfort. Isaiah 61:1,2
