Hello all,
First of all, thanks for your thoughts.
Second of all, here is the sum total of what we know right now:
Michael and our friends John Glick and Doug Meis were traveling from Shure to someplace for lunch.
They were behind a car at a light.
A young woman, bent on doing injury to herself, ran into the back of the car at a high rate of speed.
Evidently, all three guys were killed instantly.
I'm sure more details will come out over time. But those are the facts as I understand them presently.
I don't have much else to say. Except, again, thank you, all of you.
Love,
Tim
Some reports mention that the woman who hit them was using a cell phone at the time. Apologies if any facts in this message are inaccurate; I'm still gathering information.
