This sucks...........

This is like something you hear about but think "NAH, IT'LL NEVER HAPPEN".............

Sunday, a buddies Dad was on his roof adjusting his satellite dish which had gotten turned by the wind. Needless to say he lost his balance fell off the roof, landed on his head and was killed. His father was a pilot at a local airport and flew his own plane. Oh weel just figured I would let you all know......

REMEMBER BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN YOU ARE ON YOUR ROOF. IF YOU CAN HARNESS UP. IF NOT MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SOMEON WITH YOU.
