RE: [kmip] Bob Lockhart

Bob was a founding member of this KMIP TC and one earlier authors/contributors of KMIP and its predecessor SKMP. We have much to thank Bob for making KMIP the success that it is.

Personally it has been a honor and a privilege knowing and working with Bob over the past decade. I will miss his technical expertise and his personality very much and will never be able to joke about coffee without thinking of him.

My deepest condolences to his family.

Subject: [kmip] Bob Lockhart

With great sadness, I am sharing the news that Robert (Bob) Lockhart, our KMIP TC Secretary, has passed away peacefully early Tuesday morning. Bob was a highly respected and valued member of our community, deeply technical, with an amazing sense of humor and a real passion for life. There isn't anyone I know that wasn't touched by knowing Bob and far richer for the experience. His cheerful nature, big-heartedness, and passion for making sure we all understood he was right even if we hadn't yet caught up with his thinking led to many a memorable interaction.

Please join me in directing your thoughts and prayers to his wife Elizabeth (Liz) and their loved ones as they both mourn his passing and celebrate his life.

Tim.
