Kel was the most loyal and dedicated individual that I have ever know. I had the great pleasure of training Kel in the FS TAFF when he first came to work for JRTC Ops GP. We saw each other almost daily for the next 15 years until I retired completely in 2012. Kel was a true American, loved his country and made it a much better place. It was my great honor to work with and know Kel. He was so proud of his service in the US Army, loved soldiers and endured to train soldiers right up until the end of his life. I am a better person for knowing Kel, we all who knew Kel were blessed by his comradely, his mild demeanor and his great loyalty as a friend and co-worker. God has certainly gained a wonderful soul.
