Subject: Last tractor ride


W.C. Mo.
My business partner and mentor for over 68 years took his last ride. Since his wife died 3 years ago he has not been able to do much around the farm. His family threw a bash for his 90th birthday 2 weeks ago with over 40 relatives and close friends attending.
He is constantly begging to help around the farm. Last Wed I was baling up a bunch of small patches and set up the jd 7330 to move bales-group them up to be moved later.As he left he was probably happier than he had been in years- going to do something to contribute to the farm he built. 15 minutes later he was gone. Drove off a big box culvert and fell over 20 ft. We will never know if he met another vehicle and was crowded off the road, a medical condition, or not paying attention. But the results were the same.
His greatest hope was to die on the farm and not in a hospital. He achieved his wish.

RIP Dad...you are not longer lonely, bored, and in pain.
