Lost a good neighbor today

[Cedarcreek]

A good neighbor was trying to pull out a stuck pickup with a nylon tow rope with a metal end in the eye of the rope. It came off the pickup hitch ball and came through the back window of the tractor cab and killed him. We're all tired from digging out from the storm, need to be extra careful. He leaves a wife and parents.

Sad news and a bad deal.

Those nylon ropes with a metal eye are so VERY dangerous.

That is very sad. Our prayers go out to the family.

I thought maybe you would post about that, Cedarcreek. The wife's
mother lives right here close. She lost her husband a couple of years
ago and it's been tough for her to get over that. This isn't going to help
any. Prayers for all the family. Darn it, anyway.

Thats a bad deal for sure. Life is pretty temporary when you think about it.

 

[John SD]

My prayers for the whole family.

He was a neighbor and a relative to me. I feel so bad for his wife and the rest of his familty that words can't express it. It will be hard to imagine a branding, pre-conditioning, shipping or any get-together without his presence. He will be missed.

Very sad, I hate to hear of such things happening.

Sorry to hear that, we never know when the Maker will call us home.

Prayers for this family.

That's a sad occurrence...it's hard enough to lose an older person, who's lived a long full life. My prayers & thoughts go out to those who will morn his loss.

Very sad. Could happen to anyone. Parents should never be at their kids funeral.

No words can say enough. Prayers go out to everyone.

Sure is tough. Hope the family can be comforted. Will send a prayer from the desert. We all gotta be careful around equipment.
