Martin Mason

"I need to speak to Nora.. could you... could you please get her on the phone?"

— Martin's last words

"Martin William Mason" (born Feb 21st, 1966) was the father of Rachel and Amelia Mason. He was a lawyer up until his death at the age of 49.

Death
On the morning of March 18th, 2015, Martin and some of his friends were working on a roof. They, having to leave, were assured by Martin that he could finish the job on his own. They then left, waving Martin goodbye. He waved back to them. Then deciding what to do next, Martin wanted to work on some tiles that needed fixing. He climbed the roof but in the process, slipped and fell off, hitting the ground and landing on a pipe. Martin immediately realized that the pipe had gone all the way through his upper thigh, severing his femoral artery. He reached for the phone in his pocket and subsequently called 911. The operator picked up the phone. Panicking, Martin told her the situation but started to fade out due to blood loss. The operator tried to coax him back, but was unsuccessful. His last words were about his wife, asking if she could be contacted. He died before they could get her on the line.
