I'll never forget one day on the football field, during the on-set of winter, when one of the lineman suggested an idea for us to keep warm. We were standing on the side-lines while our coach went over a play on the field with the special teams, when Chris Carey proposed we line up, sprint toward one another and collide head-on. It wasn't a particularly well-thought out idea, but Chris was determined to give it a go. With a wide smile, Kenny volunteered for the experiment. The two titans stood fifty yards apart, got down into a three-point stance, and on my signal, came charging. WHAMMM! The sound of the collision shook the bleachers - and Chris was sent airborne. The noise garnered the unwanted attention of our Coach, who wasn't all too pleased to see us goofing off and sent us running. We did three laps around the field, laughing uncontrollably the whole way.
What a big, lovable, infectious laugh - Kenny will be missed.
