Notes from the President

Ken Hilton - President Red Wing Software

Red Wing Software has been like a duck the last few months; floating smooth and calm above the water, and paddling like crazy under the surface. Our latest CenterPoint software products include over two hundred new features. If you haven’t had a chance to download the new versions, please do so soon and take advantage of the new functionality.

In addition to the new enhancements to the products you use, we also recently updated our Web site for a fresh new look. Our Web team worked long and hard to make the site friendlier. Many enhancements were made behind the scenes to make the site faster and more capable. When you get a chance, log into your “My Red Wing Software” account and take a look at the new information available. Also, try out the improved search functionality. The site search now includes information and documents even more pertinent to the criteria you enter.

Everyone in the organization worked hard to provide you with some great new features in CenterPoint. We appreciate the input from all of the customers that contributed to the product updates through new feature requests. With your help, we will continue to make our products provide the information your business needs to be successful.


The Person Behind the Voice – Larry Kirkpatrick

My name is Larry Kirkpatrick, and I work in the Technical Support department at Red Wing Software. I have worked for Red Wing Software two different times: from 1981-1985, and then I came back in 1997 and have been here since then. The quality of the people I work with and service at Red Wing Software is incredible and I think it shows to our customers. I still talk to customers today who I talked to back in the 1980s. I am married and have two kids. My son Ian is 30, and my daughter Keli is 27.

When I am not working, I love to spend time with family and friends and my two dogs Kiska, a yellow lab, and Will, my boxer who has been a challenge since he was born deaf. One of them has to go everywhere with me. I also have a passion for rebuilding old cars and motorcycles, or as my wife says, ‘anything with a motor’. My wife and I have had an exciting past year. In June, my daughter was married, and two weeks later we decided to sell our larger family home and downsize to a smaller one with more property. We are finally settling in and enjoying our new home.
