Kelly Newton, 22, Nanaimo, British Columbia
Kelly had been working part time for less than three weeks when he died. On October 31, 1995, he was crushed when some logs moved on a skidder. He had not been trained and was working without supervision. “Proper training would have prevented this needless accident. Kelly enjoyed life to the fullest. His ready smile and sense of humour will always be missed by his friends and family. A young, vital life wasted. All we can hope for is that someone will learn by our loss… Kelly, keep howling at the moon.” |
