Just reading your memorial and I realized that your accident happened right around the corner from where the station was. I can remember all the times I left the station going to my zone and going through that intersection, never knowing what had happened to you but have had many close calls myself there by drivers in a hurry trying to not get stuck by the light. I wonder if you had just left the station en route to your zone. The station has been moved to a bigger facility and the names have all changed, but the legacy of dedication and hard work that I'm sure you were part of still lives on. Rest in peace, my brother. We will meet one day and share war stories.
