Sometimes we give medical doctor's credit beyond the ordinary person for using good sense and being cautious. This is just a reminder that it can happen to anyone and quicker than you can imagine.

WHITE HALL - A prominent retired cardiologist in the Houston area died in a tractor accident at his farm in Grimes County.

Sheriff's Lt. Blake Jarvis on Monday said 79-year-old Dr. Faber Francis McMullen Jr. was dead at the scene.

Jarvis told the Associated Press that McMullen, who practiced in Bellaire, died Sunday when his clothing, likely a glove, became entangled in an auger.

McMullen was working alone, digging post holes for a fence at his property near White Hall, about 60 miles northwest of Houston. A relative found the body.

McMullen was a Baylor College of Medicine graduate. The McMullen-Connally Faculty Center, on the campus in Waco, opened in the fall 2008.
A school news release says Dr. McMullen met his wife, Roxanna Connally, while both were Baylor students.
