On Saturday a 45 year old farmer from the area lost his life in a horrific accident with a tractor and loader during a spring cleanup operation with his 12 year old son.
They were picking up the plastic cover in a pit silo with the son running the tractor. Somehow the son hit forward instead of reverse on the shuttle shift and pinned his dad against the silo wall with the loader bucket, killing him instantly.
This young man will have a really tough time out of this, I'm afraid. He and his family will need our prayers. So terribly sad, such a burden and emotional aftermath for him to carry.
