A family friend said Rossmeyer, 66, of Ormond Beach, was riding with several motorcyclists when they pulled out to pass a pickup. Rossmeyer was the last in line and was killed when the truck strayed into his lane, hitting his motorcycle, according to the friend who didn’t want to be named. The Wyoming Highway Patrol had not confirmed an identity, but a spokeswoman said a fatal motorcycle accident occurred in Sweetwater County on Highway 28 between Lander and Farson about 11 a.m. today, the Rapid City Journal reported.Read more here.

This man will be missed in many ways, more than could be decribed. We all could wonder why he was so successful, yet gave so much and yet also inspired giving.
ReplyDeleteI will now examine my remaining years on this earth to help others first, and help myself last.
Truely, what goes around comes around.
It is very sad that Bruce was killed. My heart goes out to his family.
ReplyDeleteI just cannot understand how Bruce could not avoid this accident. Anyone that has ridden their motorcycle, car, whatever, out in Wy knows that it is nothing but wide open spaces.
I guess it was just his time.
