Mike had not posted on his new forum since May 2003 and several people had posted inquiring as to if he was ok. Then Mrs. Morrow reported on Mike Morrow's web site that he had died in an auto accident deep in the forest on Jersey shores (I don't know where that is located). She said that his car swerved and hit a ledge on the forest road flipping upside down. His neck was broken in the accident. She didn't say how he was found way back in the woods or how long it took to locate the wreaked car. She also didn't say if anyone was in the car with him. Her report is on Mike's forum.
I tried to see when the last time he posted on other forums and it appears that he had not posted for about two months. However, I am presumeing that he must have communicated with some of the researchers during that time period.
Mike is now gone but he did represent a sensitive, serious and dedicated NO KILL Bigfoot Researcher that spent time with various other like-minded researchers.
I was thinking that it would be thoughtful if some of the researchers that communicated with Mike either in person and/or by email/phone, would post some memories they had when researching and/or discussing research with Mike Morrow. It would be like haveing a "Memorial Memory Thread" for Mike Morrow with the good things that he represented in the field of Bigfoot Research. I know that some of you met with Mike and it would be nice to give him a respectful "Memorial Memory Thread", so that we all can benefit from his shareing with the Bigfoot community while he was here on this earth.
I know from reading his past posts that he had a special love and understanding with animals, such that while deep in the forests, many animals would trust him enough to come close to him to eat the food he offered them. It is obvious from reading his past posts on various forums that he was a man that wanted to share and be accepted as a friend.
I don't know him personally and/or about his personal life but I do recognise from his writings, that he was a sensitive man (artist and poet), and that he felt deeply and did not always understand the reactions of others when he was being so open and forthright. Everyone experiences good and bad days when their feelings are more apt to be accidently & needlessly hurt... we are all suseptible to that human experience. However, that too passes, and now we need to remember and document the things that were shared with Mike Morrow; so that all of the community will learn, remember and benefit from the memories a serious and sincere No Kill Bigfoot Researcher.
