More detail on this person: My father died on July 13, 1979, the day before his 44th birthday. He was born on 7/14/35. My father's cause of death is that he was crushed by a tractor that rolled over him. My uncle's tractor starting rolling down a hill and, being the hero that he was, he tried to stop it by jumping into the cab. Instead, the tire caught him and rolled over him. At the time of his death he was living on the family farm that he had previously purchased in Spickard, Missouri.
