AdvantageTimberLou Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Prayers being sent, so sad to hear about this and I guess that is why they indeed are called accidents. My brother was killed in a work related accident and a block in his situation could have saved his life as well. All we can believe is someday we will be together again as will you with your neighbor. I hope the community pulls together to help the boys run the farm.
