IndyGuy4KI Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 I don't think we can all appreciate enough the work he and maintenance staff does for us (the KI guests) every day. Thank you Tom for your years of hard work, along with the rest of the maintenance staff for everything you do to keep the KI rides in such great shape year round. KICentral is keeping the whole KI family in our thoughts during the difficult time. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco2000 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) What a loss for the KI community. The Cincinnati Enquirer ran an article, but I had no idea that "Helbig ...... has ridden The Beast well over 12,000 times, including a record-setting 112 times in one day." But it must be true since the newspaper article says so... https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2020/06/13/kings-islands-long-time-rides-maintenance-manager-has-passed-away/3185491001/ Edited June 16, 2020 by disco2000 Newspaper made an edit correction today LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
