Truly horrible. May God comfort his family.
Horrible way to die and family of victims last picture of him. ππππ
To horrible & sad for words. Life is hard for blue collar workers in Mississippi. They are just trying to earn an income to pay for food, water, clothing & shelter. And, maybe have enough money to buy a few Christmas presents for family. "God hold the family in the palms of your hands." Amen
I hope his family sues them!
Impossible to find words here. Praying for his family
Asphalt should normally be about 275 to 300 degrees Fahrenheit when it arrives at the project site, so it would be a little hotter when picked up at the plant as was the case here. God bless the family.
Insurance companies' (plural) deep, thorough and lengthy investigations will show that there WAS no malfunction of hydraulic equipment.
That won't bring him back, as many will say, but it will absolve the manufacturer and the owners of the truck.
John Morgan has already landed.
That's obvious. But it's noted that money is your first thought and consideration.
This is truly horrifying. Praying for healing for the family members.
I am so sorry this man died in such a horrific manner, and I know my prayers for his family wont bring the comfort they deserve.

You know sometimes accidents just happen! Every tragedy in this life doesn't have to be punctuated by a lawsuit.
Doesn't have to be, but typically is. This one will register about 12 mil.
Many times Owners take certain Risk in Life expecting different results, so sorry for the Family.
