I remember seeing this right after it was opened...he was so proud of the beaming U.P. emblem rising above the overpass. Ironically, two weeks after he showed it to me (in 1983), he went jogging over this overpass and was hit by a drunk driver. He was killed in a place he had been so proud to show off. I had never thought to look up the spot until last night...seeing these pictures, and life going on as normal, brought a strange sort of peace. I don't see tragedy, but I see what he was proud of...and it makes me smile. Thank You!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
