To the Ludwig family, please know that you are all in my prayers.
I worked with Kristine at Bentley Systems until my recent retirement. Kristine in typical form sent praise and well wishes to me just a few weeks ago. My former colleagues will surely miss her compassion and sense of humor. I’m so sorry for your loss and for theirs.
