I have so many memories of working with Kevin from Lucent to Bell & Howell to the army depot. Stand up guy who always had my back. Didn't see him as often as I would have liked but when I did, it was always fun and memorable. I'll miss him and I wish his family the best. Sorry for your loss.

Kevin was a unique individual, for sure. He LOVED Philly sports teams, Eagles and Phillies especially. We were just chatting the other day about Brett Toth on the Eagles Offensive line, and who Howie should get to replace him. Kevin was never shy about sharing his opinion on anything, which is a character trait I thoroughly enjoyed. We didn't agree on everything but anyone who doubted his passion on something never really talked to him. Kevin will be missed here at Lutron. I was very sad to hear of his passing. Sending thoughts and prayers to his family. Kevin, thank you for your service to this great country!
