    Our thoughts and prayers to the family and friends, and a special thanks to the drivers and others who did what they could and should for a brother. RIP

    good lord. Deepest sympathies for his family. The story doesn't state why he told his boss he couldn't work today. I wonder what was up with that, and I also wonder what his boss is gonna do now if it turns out he threatened to fire the guy if he didn't roll.

    Man what a shame:biggrin_2558:

    I meant the thumbs up for the rescuers, certainly not the drivers death. I tried to remove it but couldn't, sorry.

    It was the guy that helped to try and save him that said he couldn't drive today. I can understand why.
