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

Oh awful awful awful. Take one day at a time. I'm so sorry. Have read the thread and there is a tidal wave of sympathy and strength for you.

Rest in Peace MrTrinity, DH.

Have only just found this - my heart goes out to Trinity and her family.

For what its worth, my partner was killed in a two-vehicle collision in the Borders of Scotland some years ago. If shared experience may help, my offer of help is totally genuine, and I will do all I can.
