Re: [ISN] Gene Schultz, R. I. P.

Forwarded from: Lawrence Pingree <geekguy (at) geek-guy.com>

I knew Gene and had lunch with him recently and had hung out with him at RSA. 
What an amazing, generous, loving and passionate man. He was a great influencer 
of security and contibuted greatly in the same 'behind the scenes' way that 
many of us in security do. He never had anything bad to say about anyone and 
spoke about how proud he was of his family, he will be missed greatly and my 
prayers go out to his family.
