Sad news indeed, even if I'm half a world away.
As others have said, it could have just as easily been one of us, there is no partiality with machinery. Let us all try to help each other put safety first whatever we're doing.
The greatest gift that we can give Turra Farmer and his family is that we all go home safely at the end of every day.
I try hard to recognise when I am not doing jobs safely any more because of tiredness, stress, wrong kit or lack of skills. I stop that and do something else, I still have scars. There are accidents and those are the most unfair. Try hard to make it so the preventable ones don't happen to you.
Most of all I wish Turra was here to see the appreciation shown for his life.
Such unimaginable sorrow for the family and all concerned. Hopefully in times to come, some small comfort will be had by them seeing all the comments and thoughts from all his TFF friends and to know what high esteem he was held in . To those that know the family, do please enter a diary date 6 weeks from now, or 6 weeks after the funeral, to offer some companionship. That will be the really tough time when all the support they have now will have moved on with their lives and they have to really face a different world.
I was going to write something out of respect for someone whose views on here I admired as being honest and practical with a mind towards making things better and more profitable, we on tff are losing that knowledge and his family are losing so much more. My deepest respect goes to Turra farmer and his family and friends at this time
