He was one of the kindest souls you'd ever find. When he asked how you were doing and wished you well he really meant it. The world has too few people like him and it saddens me to know there's one less today. He leaves behind a wonderful family he was extremely proud of. So do me and Mike a favor and tell your family you love them. You never know when you won't be able to. It was truly a pleasure to know you Mikey and I'm glad we talked yesterday, it kills me to know we can't today. Race in peace buddy! You are missed!

That is a pretty straight stretch of highway it must have been a freak accident. My heart goes out to his family. I don't know all the details but I believe it's part of the current construction and the traffic pattern changes frequently. Absolutely sad, The man literally committed his life to helping others, he was a social worker by day and would always check in on his friends after work and always wanted to make sure we were doing as good as we could. He really was a pleasure to know.

What we're told is: Mike was stopped when a 3/4 diesel driven by a 20 year old never hit the brakes. He had some head trauma but death was caused be a transected aorta. Basically he was hit so hard it ripped the aorta from his heart. Ripped the axle off the car and flipped the car.
