CHIKUN/KAJURU REP, HON. FIDELIX BAGUDU, ANNOUNCES NEW APPOINTMENTS TO STRENGTHEN INCLUSIVE GOVERNANCE. (PHOTO).
58-year-old Dana Sitzmann sadly lost his life when he was struck by an unattended wagon and suffered fatal injuries as a result.
After learning of this tragedy, over 70 farmers from this tight-knit community came together to help the Sitzman family bring in their crops.
A fleet of combines, tractors and semitrucks descended onto the property and began harvesting the 850 acres of corn.
According to Tyler Sitzmann (Dana's son) his dad was a kind and generous person and had the roles been reversed he would have been the first person there to help out. He continued when neighbors found out about the initiative their phone would not stop ringing.
As they began bringing in the crops Linda Sitzmann (Dana's wife) took the first ride on the combine to honor her late husband.
In a world that increasingly seems broken and divided this is such a wonderful story of compassion and togetherness. The world needs more will like these Iowa farmers.
Rest in peace, Dana.
