Wow that's terrible. Sadly, I never had the privilege of meeting Hornya, but I very much enjoyed his posts on this board. My heart hurts for Ken's family and friends and I will certainly be praying for God to mend their broken hearts. God bless Ken's family!
RIP Hornya
RIP Hornya
I didn't know Ken other than through the boards. I send prayers to his family.
While I could understand how hard this may be, that changed a little bit last week. I came home to Boston last night after spending the week in California at my father-in-law's funeral. It's the first parent that either my wife or I have lost. The pain is indescribable (as many of you know). I was part of their family since I was 17 (and now I'm 50).
I know Ken's friends will help his family make it through this terrible time just as my father-in-law's and our our friends are helping us.

Never knew Hornya personally, but respected him as a poster. He had a very visible presence, and it sounds like he was a wonderful guy in person. RIP, Longhorn friend.
I believe Hornya just turned 65. I met him once and he was not only a gentleman, but he truly loved TEXAS. God bless Ken and his entire family.

Re: OT: Hornya
Well, Shit. There's some crappy news. Hornya was my age. A year older than me actually.
We were at UT at the same time in the mid 60's. We exchanged many emails and phone calls. He joined us for dinner one night a year or so ago for a baseball game with cheese, mikemc, principal, reverent horn and joeywa.
Friendly. Full of piss and vinegar like so many good guys, and like so many of us, as full of crap as a Christmas turkey and not afraid to let you know about it. Fun guy to talk to, especially about Longhorn trivia.
Very, very proud of his Longhorn history, Longhorn friends and Longhorn roots. Was a huge track and field fan, and speaking of track, by now he's probably trying to track down Farrah Fawcett and making a complete pest of himself.
RIP, my friend.
