The car may have caught fire and the family had no idea.

If you saw a neighbor's house on fire, you'd run over, wouldn't you, to warn her. That's how we feel about our message.

We have a lot at stake here, a huge amount at stake. We are small family farmers, and we're just trying to feed the world. It's important that we survive. We do not want to rely on foreign markets for our food as we do with energy.

We will be conducting an investigation on the unauthorized burning. We will be relying on the fire department's report and at this point there will be no on-site investigation.

It's a close-knit group. When someone in your family is hurting, you hurt.

Anytime you lose someone, a death in the family, it's very, very emotional. We're not in any situation to pressure him one way or the other.
