Would like to express our deepest sympathies to all of KT's family. I have known KT for a very long time and really liked him. He was a great inspiration to me as a young corrosion technician and I learned a lot from him. We always had really great times together and he always had a great big smile each time we met. He made a big impact in my life and I will miss him. I pray KT rest in peace, and may GOD bless him and his family.
