According to Freddie Mac’s website, Kellerman was with Freddie Mac for more than 16 years and named Acting Chief Financial Officer last September.
Freddie Mac’s interim CEO John Koskinen has released the following statement regarding the death of Kellermann.
“The Freddie Mac family is truly saddened by the news this morning of David Kellermann’s death. We extend our deepest condolences to David’s family and loved ones for this terrible personal tragedy.”
“David was a man of great talents. He dedicated those talents to Freddie Mac for more than 16 years, serving in many business and finance capacities before recently taking the reins as acting chief financial officer. His extraordinary work ethic and integrity inspired all who worked with him. But he will be most remembered for his affability, his personal warmth, his sense of humor and his quick wit. David was a friend to many in the Freddie Mac family, and we mourn his passing.”
What could have drove Kellermann to suicide will obviously be the subject of much debate and investigation in the coming days ahead.
