I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. I was Pappy's projectionist during the location production of "And They're Off!" in Lexington, KY in 1982. Indeed, he was a strong, forthright man, bound with integrity. For a time, funding ran out on the movie but Pappy personally made sure that everyone was paid! He made a wonderful, heartfelt picture and I learned many life lessons in the few months I was privileged to work for him. Rest in peace, Mr. Kuhns.
