I didn't think anything of this sign along the reconstruction of Hiway 2 but I wonder if they put a cross up for my dad and the other person killed in a crash on Hiway 87 back in Dec 2015. Never thot my dad would be represented by one of those. Guess I'll have to check the next time I'm near the ranches.
They are numerous enough to notice, enfrequent enough to startle at seeing, and they stimulate reverence, sorrow, sympathy, curiosity and caution. They affect us all to one degree or another. They are the white crosses that mark the sites of fatal traffic accidents along the highways of Montana. For over 50 years, these white crosses have reminded passing motorists of the dangers of the road, as well as the lives that have been lost on these highways.
