I never met him, but his contributions to our discussions are still appreciated.
I recall many discussions with SJ, those were good sessions. Frankly I thought we had lost him some time ago as its been ages since we've heard from or about him. I remember congratulating him on his 80'th birthday which seems like it was a long time ago. RIP Ken.
R. I. P., SJ. And thank you for your many contributions to our collective knowledge.
Just my 0.02.
I think he was proud of the "Stump Jumper" nickname. As I remember, it was applied and stuck when he was a new hire at the CAT shop a long time ago. Sure knew the things he knew very well. His kind of people are the ones "who get it done"
Disapointing news for sure. I recall reading a lot of his posts, a valuable contributor gone R.I.P.
