Well, we got the info. this morning about Ken. Instead of giving the details, which won't change what happened, I would just like to mention that those who have worked with him over the past 15-20 years liked him and respected how he handled his job. As we all know, not much of our day runs smoothly and Kenny was one of the best at handling this on a stop by stop basis. He was a professional when it came to his job. I'm pretty sure he was near the Circle of Honor and he was chugging away at loading up his 401k and going to Jamaica (as he did every year) this winter.
The hydration issue was mentioned, and rightfully so considering the weather up here, and I simply don't know if he was drinking enough water or if it was something different all together. As of 8:30 this morning, we were PCM'd on the situation, we had a moment of silence, and we then walked up to our belts with too much to do on too hot a day.
And so it goes...
RIP Ken
