"With great sadness I learned about Kells? final farewell. I worked with Kells for nearly thirty years in a very unique configuration Sundstrand - Sauer - Daikin -Danfoss and Kells was not only very instrumental in this complicated partnership but also had the ability to understand the different cultures and last but not least was a friend for all these years. My thoughts are with Conny and the family! Fare well Kells, Your long standing friend Wolfgang"
