Condolences to both you and Kent's family. I know this is a tough time for all.
Additional warnings to all the rest of us - you don't have to be under the car to be injured or killed.
* I lost a friend about 10 years ago that was working on his car and had it up on jack stands. The jacks shifted and the car fell to the side pinning him between the car and his motorhome. He was alone at the time. His wife found him when she returned home from shopping.
* One of my car club buddies wasn't injured but his car was damaged recently. He'd had the front of the car up on ramps and the rear up on jack stands while he worked under the car. When taking the rear off of the jack stands he raised the back with his hydraulic floor jack, pulled the jack stands and started to lower the rear of the car. When he had raised the rear in order to remove the jack stands, evidently the floor jack pulled the car backwards to where the front tires were right at the edge of the ramp. As he was lowering the rear, the tires were pulled onto the ramp and the car started rolling backwards down the ramps. He tried to stop it but ultimately had to jump out of the way and the left rear quarter hit the side of the garage door opening leaving a nice dent in the pristine body and paint.
