Mike died on Nevada state route 375 the famous ET Highway. He was traveling at night towards Warm Springs, Nevada. He encountered a cow crossing the road between mile marker 34-33 East side of the road. This is open range county and the cows have the right of way. We have placed a marker where the Jeep came to rest. As he was a Geologist we are asking everyone to place a rock at the marker.
We decided to place a Memorial Marker where Michael died. When we arrived, three storm cells circled the site of where we were about to placed the marker. Then suddenly the thunder and lighting circled us in all directions. As soon as the marker was placed the storm drifted away. The Marker is a 5 foot steel post with Mike's birth sign; Taurus the Bull on top. To place the marker we brought 180 pounds of cement along with ten gallons of water and a post digger. The marker is located on state route 375; mile marker 33, outside Rachel, NV. It's ironic that Michael was 33 and that his birth sign was "Taurus the Bull" Special thanks to Phil Coward to help me place the Marker and was there for me.
