A tragic end to a life well-lived.

I think I read about this man in a recent Reader’s Digest. What a shame and a sad loss.

blue tarps over holes in the floor? um, how about some ropes or caution tape? or maybe a sign? how come there are plenty of "wet paint" signs, but no "hole in the floor" signs?

tragic loss.

What a shame. Prayers for his family.

"it appears he fell through one of those tarps," Knudson said.

I feel compelled to point out that "tarp"
is an anagram for "trap."
Coincidence?

Yikes. RIP.

Sounds like a hell of a guy, I’ve bought many an item from ABC. After hearing this, Im happy I bought from him. God rest his soul.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Ken Hendricks, a high school dropout who made himself into a billionaire, died early Friday after falling through a hole in a floor on an addition being built at his Rock County home.

Luke 12

15Then [Jesus] said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions."
16And he told them this parable: "The ground of a certain rich man produced a good crop. 17He thought to himself, 'What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.'
18"Then he said, 'This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19And I'll say to myself, "You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." '
20"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?'
21"This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God."

We must hope Mr. Hendricks did not personally fulfill this Scripture.
