Worker killed when trailer hits power line –
ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE

A 25-year-old man was killed Wednesday afternoon when the grain trailer he was cleaning touched a power line in northeast Pulaski County, officials said.

Joel Coffey of 20704 Wampoo Road was electrocuted at 16409 Wampoo Lateral Road, according to the Pulaski County sheriff's office.

One of Coffey's co-workers at Bredlow Farms told officials that Coffey was cleaning a grain trailer when the power went out.

The co-worker said he went outside to see Coffey holding onto the trailer, fire at his feet. The grain trailer was raised into a power line that carried 7,620 volts, police said.

The co-worker said when Coffey fell to the ground, he dragged him away and tried to resuscitate him.

There were no signs of foul play, officials said.

Joey is my Nephew.

They say that life is fleeting
I know that this is true
I left this world so quickly
With no goodbye to you.
I know how much you miss me
Your tears fall ever light
The pillow where you lay your head
Is wet with them at night.
I know your heart is hurting
The words we left, unsaid
I love you's left unspoken
Are spinning in your head.
The strength that I have carried
That served to make you whole
Remains to make you stronger
Within your grieving soul.
For you see, while you were weeping
On the day I passed away
At the gravesite near the flowers
Where my loved ones knelt to pray.
An angel came to see me
She took me by the hand
She led me to a kingdom
In a very distant land.
As I look down from the heaven
And see you standing there
Your heart so ever burdened
With more weight than it can bear.
I long to bring you comfort
I long to give you peace
I long to hold you closely
Cause all your tears to cease.
The joy I've found in heaven
Goes far beyond compare
The love that's so elusive
Can be found here everywhere.
The light is softly shining
There's no storm clouds here or rain
There's no teardrops found in heaven
There's no suffering, there's no pain.
You needn't be so troubled
Stay close to God and pray
That someday we'll be together
One bright and glorious day.
So my love, you shouldn't question
My dear you need not cry
I've gone to be with Jesus
I really didn't die.
