Death of driver struck by his own HGV

Hi,

Im Mark Walters, the brother of Gary Walters.

Firstly, I would like to thank everybody for their posts, it means a lot.

A funeral service will be held for Gary on Friday 22nd October at Amersham Crematorium at 4.45pm for anybody that knew him or for anybody who would like to attend.

Gary will be taken to the crem on the back of a Scania Truck which im sure he would have wanted. If any drivers would like to come down in their cabs to join the funeral prossession they are more than welcome. We will be leaving from Gary’s parents home around 4pm at 54 Fernie Fields, Booker, High Wycombe HP12 4SL.

The family and Gary’s three beloved children are trying to create the scene from convoy which we know would make him very proud.

Gary’s passion was trucks. He lived for trucks going to all the truck fests and watching any truck programs. Even his money boxes were trucks!

Please come and help us to celebrate the life of a truly fantastic father, son and brother.

Many thanks,

Mark Walters

P.S. Have been talking to several truckers who have said that drivers should always use the park brakes on their trailers to help prevent this from ever happening again and also the one in the cab!!!
