A friend and former coworker of mine from West Plains, Mo. was seriously injured yesterday (Wed.) in a freak accident. He was brush hogging when the loader on his tractor snagged a large wild grape vine (common in this area) which in turn broke out the top of a tree that fell on him striking the back of his head and neck paralizing him. His wife was out of town on a trip nad he was found approximately 36 hours later by a neighbor who decide to check on him after noticing his garage had been open and his tractor gone for about a day and a half. After an extensive search he found him by following the trail through the brush the out of control tractor had left. LaRoy was air lifted to a hospital in Springfield where they were going to put him on a ventilator tody. He is not expected to live. He had retired from the telephone company about 2 years ago so he could spend more time on his farm.
