Unhappy RIP Kevin Richards (IB Kevin)

I can't believe I am posting this...

Kevin passed away late last week, I just got a call from his Father, Terry.

Terry is making arrangements with the Navy regarding services and will advise when plans are made. He (Terry) is a RL member but I am not sure if he will be posting here about it. I will update as I get information.

RIP Kevin. You are a good friend. I hope you have found peace.

Oh wow, we crawled over the USS Midway and he took me out onto the Coronado base when I was in San Diego a few years back. I am very sorry to hear this.

Hello, didn't know Kevin Richards (IB Kevin), but sad to have a loss in the community. I'm sure there have been contributions that we've benefited from. Condolences to his family and close friends.
RIP Kevin Richards.

Will do Jeremy.

For anyone that knew him and is in the San Diego area, services will be in the first week of January, will nail down the date once I hear from his Dad. Services will be at MCAS Miramar.

My condolences. My first time back on the board in years and I see this thread. I remember talking to him on the phone in 2013 about how we hated how Communfornia is degrading further. I missed those 944 get together parties 13+ years ago.

RIP Kevin. You are too young to leave us and will be missed.
