We couldn't have done it without Billy Dexheimer at North Star Real Estate, Brandon Barnes and Justin Irish at River Region Credit Union, and Tiger Moving. And I'm especially thankful for @katiekc1's flexibility, cooperation, and generosity through this whole process.

Kendal was one of the most genuine and kindest people I've ever known. I am proud to have called him a friend. My heart is breaking for his family, especially Tisha - with whom he showed us all what true love looks like. I hope he is hanging out with Larry again, talking physics.
Central is deeply saddened to share the passing of Dr. Kendal Clark, professor of Physics for the past 11 years. He graduated from CMU with a BA in Physics and Mathematics in 2002.
