For the last 19 years I have been working as a nurse to prevent farm fatalities. Equipment overturns are the number one reason for farmer deaths. And, unfortunately, agriculture is the most deadly industry in America with almost twice the number of fatalities per 100,000 workers of the next closest industry. Each one is a person with a family and a community who will miss them dearly. I can be reached at fleming4716@msn.com I am so sorry to hear about this accident.
