That on Monday 24th August at approximately 6pm TrinityRhino's wonderful husband was killed in a car crash.

He was working near Biggar in Scotland and was on his way home when his van and a 17-5 ton lorry collided.

Thankfully he was killed instantly and did not suffer although as you will all understand the family's suffering is on going

As many of you will know Trinity and I are really close friends and I feel as if my heart has been ripped out and have only now felt I was strong enough to post this for her (I wouldn't post without her permission) and can only imagine how she and her 3 little girls and her 2 stepsons are feeling

The world is most definately a worse place for the loss of this wonderful husband, dad & friend.

God bless and R.I.P.

I hope that makes sense as I can hardly see the keys for tears

So so sorry to hear this news trinity, its so shocking and tragic, there really are no words of comfort but my thoughts are with you.

Purplepillow, thanks for posting. I hope MN can be of some support to both of you over the coming months. I helped support my friend when she lost her DH (and our lovely friend) nearly 2 years ago so I understand a little of what you are feeling. Please feel to CAT me if you want to talk.
