Ferguson on the farm DVDS

Yesterday I flew over to Devon England to attend the funeral of Harold Beer. Harold was a real dedicated Ferguson man... right to the very end. His coffin was brought to the Brethern church on a Ferguson 30 cwt trailer towed behind his first little grey Fergie. We were greeted with a powerpoint presentation of his photos with his family and of course his tractors and his dog, called 'Massey'. All during the service the preacher kept refering to tractors and tractor repairs...The second hymn was altered to include the words Massey and Ferguson and Harold was laid in his coffin in his trademark Massey Ferguson Boiler-suit(cover-alls) and work boots. He had time to arrange this all himself and was buried on his own farm....towed there of course by his Ferguson. Many of the mourners also wore the Ferguson or MF logo either discretely in the form of a button or neck-tie or just in Massey Ferguson Boiler-suits.
A very fitting tribute and send off to a very nice man.

sorry to hear of him passing.

I really enjoyed watching those old films about his tractors and implements.

what a collection of tools he had,
hope someway they can be helt together for others to enjoy as time goes on.
 
Sorry to hear of his passing Sam,these people had lots of memorys to pass on. Just before christmas I lost a good friend Eric Ducksbury the instigator of Fordson 500 show at Newark showground in 1996. He was president of our tractor club and had a wonderful knowlage of Fordson tractors and experences. Forgot to mention he was 93 yers old. MJ
