Ross Kinney, prominent
author and Wall Street Journal Columnist, died last night from injuries sustained
at the 150th running of the Boston Marathon during an epic sprint of
the last 385 yards that had the spectators cheering wildly for Kinney and an
unidentified runner dressed as a dominatrix, wearing a pink wig. The race came down to the final foot strike
which ended in epic failure for Kinney as he slipped on a banana with
mysterious writings and drawings of animals with tusks.
Kinney was born and raised
in Denver, Colorado. He began his career
working as a carpenter with his father.
In 1986, Kinney changed careers which he termed as his accidental career
that lasted almost 25 years in the Information Technology field.
During that time, Kinney
began running marathons for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. He developed a passion for running and even
more so being a part of finding a cure for blood cancers.
When asked to describe
what made her husband special, Sue responded “for me, he had a gift of
attracting people to his life that would inspire him.” “Kelly inspired Ross to get involved in
something big and later Cassie inspired Ross to start writing again.”
Most of all he loved his
family, especially his children, Laura and Adam.
