RIP.

Its insane how many 'vacation deaths' i've heard about this summer. Its a crappy circumstance for the family regardless, its just not one you'd imagine.

Be careful out there with your families.

 

R.I.P. It just sucks when talented people die in their prime

 

RIP

 

As far as stats go ,they say most accidents happen within a mile of home, or at home when one's gaurd is down. Tragic ,R.I.P

 

That really sucks. My condolences go out to the family. From what I read, he was trying to pull out a stump on a tractor and it flipped.

 

What a sad and tragic end ... thanks for letting us know about the untimely death of a BMW Family Member

 

UPDATE:

Media Update on the Death of Jack Pitney and Jim O?Donnell Statement
Woodcliff Lake, NJ ? August 27, 2010? We have more information to share with you about the death of our dear friend and colleague, Jack Pitney. According to the sheriff?s department in Greene County, NY, on Thursday afternoon (August 26) Jack was on his tractor at his farm in Durham. As he was trying to pull a tree stump from the ground, the tractor flipped with him still on board. The sheriff?s department arrived at 12:40 PM and Jack was pronounced dead at the scene. An autopsy is being performed today. Funeral arrangements are still incomplete and we will send you that information as soon as it becomes available.

 

Damn....the people that least deserve it always seem to get it.....

 

Why? Do they suspect that something else killed him right before the tractor landed on him?

 

why not? Of course. See if he was intoxicated etc. And for insurance purpose make sure it was the tractor that killed him
