What a wonderful man! I was in Kyle´s group in the Filter Products Lab from 1978 to 1986 when I took over his responsibilities as Group Leader of the Development Group. He could always be counted upon to make prompt, accurate decisions and always showed kindness and compassion to me personally. He gave me just enough freedom to use my creativity without too much that would have gotten me into trouble. This was a rare skill at Eastman that Kyle was blessed with. I will always have fond memories of him and your family will be in my prayers!
