teamster brother and husband dies on I-81

Hello, My name is Paula the wife of truck driver Harry Muyleart. He passed away driving on I-81, April 17th in Winchester, VA. He was one of those guys that everyone like. He enjoyed trucking driving, making it his living most of his life minus serving in the army. He also enjoyed serving with the Knights of Columbus when he could. He had his own truck at the beginning, then went to Roadway, YRC, Heartland, and then Active, USA. He was a beautiful, wonderful man. I will miss him greatly, he was my best friend and love!

But I want to warn the truck driving community with family. Please make sure your family is taken care of if something should happen to you. Put payment protection plans in place so they will be able to stay in their home, or not have to sell the car because that income has gone. Unfortunately Harry did not put these into place saying it was a waste of money. Let me tell you it is not! I will not be able to stay in our home. Even though a he had small life insurance policy, it will not be enough. So I not only lose my husband, I lose what he and I worked so hard for. Please do not leave your family in this position. I have not stopped shaking since this whole thing happen. Not knowing where to turn next, or what will pop up next. Now they are telling me I might have a hospital bill from this accident. Please leave them with some peace of mind, if something should happen. Do not wait, time waits for no one!

Thank you, and GOD BLESS YOU. Safe journeys!

I'm so sorry to hear of this message and this is very good advice our life can be cut short at any time with this job and in life in general my thoughts and prayers go out to this lady and her family may God bless us all we all need to take a moment to show our love ones what they mean to us and that they will be taken care of if we are not here. Let's all be careful out there.
