Obituary- Stach, Frank H. 3

Rossville Man Killed When Tractor Overturns
from Topeka “Capital-Journal”
Frank Stach, 84, died Tuesday evening, September 7, 1999, when his farm tractor overturned on top of him in a field north of town, au¬thorities said. He was driving on an incline at the time of the accident.
Rossville Fire Department Chief Wilbur Stum Jr. said Stach was pronounced dead at the scene.
Rossville first-responders were notified of the accident at about 6:30 p.m., Stum said, but he didn’t know how long Stach was under¬neath the tractor before rescue crews arrived.
The accident occurred in the 8800 block of NW Carlson Road.
Rossville first-responders and Shawnee County sheriff’s deputies arrived soon after the 911 call but quickly determined the man had died. Ambulance crews were called off en route.
Mr. Stach resided in Rossville but owned the property where the accident occurred, Stum said.
An official with the Shawnee County coroner’s office was at the scene Tuesday evening investigat¬ing and photographing the accident, Stum said. The body was removed and taken to a Topeka mortuary lat¬er that night.
Mr. Stach’s obituary is printed on page 2 of this issue.
