My name is Meghan Klein ,  July 22, 2021 at 12pm I got the worst news any mother can receive! My son left for work this morning his shift started at 8am he got up everyday gracefully to go to work. My son had a tragic accident at work working the forklift at 10am. I didn’t get no call from Menards regarding my son accident isn’t that what a emergency contact for ? My son was dead for two hours before I got the news of his death. My son was 19 years old , he was an exceptional young man , he prided his self on being great and wanted to live life the right way . He was an over achiever at everything he did . Anything he put his mind to he accomplished . His soul filled every room with rays of light and happiness. He was so excited to be working , he got up every morning, went in early on days . My son wasn’t appreciated as a employee he wasn’t valued they kept the store open after my sons death and proceeded on with there day like I didn’t just lose a child ,or my kids a brother , or my nieces and nephews a cousin & my grandkids uncle , my mom and his dads mom grandson & me and his dad siblings nephew ! & last but not least A FRIEND ! His life mattered and they couldn’t even close the store for the remaining of the day ! A company that he loved , a company he was proud to work for didn’t have the common decency to close out of respect for a employee where was the respect and value for my son services to help your company out . My baby died doing what was right he wasn’t in the streets he was a mommas boy. Nothing will ever make this right , but my son deserves to go out like the Young king he is ! And unfortunately I didn’t except to bury any of my kids and anything appreciated to help my son home going I can’t believe I even have to do this.
