My mom phoned yesterday, and I learned a bit more today.
I have a second cousin, 12 years old, who has just passed away.
He was at his Oma's (grandmother) house celebrating his 12th birthday. He was riding around on a cart, having blast with a neighbour boy, waiting for his mom to pick him up after work.
And he got in front of a tractor with two grain wagons behind. The tractor couldn't stop. There would be no way he could have stopped with two full grain wagons behind him.
His grandmother rushed out to see what happened and found him dying.
The medical people say that he died on impact.
Visitation is Monday and Tuesday with the funeral on Wednesday. Two of his uncles are ministers and will be doing the service. It will be tough.
Please, if you would, keep his family in your prayers.
UPDATE::::
I found a newspaper story with the information on my second cousin. It is found at The Record. I have no idea if they will allow you free access or not. In case they don't I'll copy the article out and paste it as a separate entry.
