I am incredibly saddened by the recent passing of Gunnery Sergeant Sean C. Kirk, who was a popular brakeman on the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge railroad:
Durango Herald: Police identify man killed in highway crash - Sean Kirk of Durango died Wednesday on Molas Pass

Sean's obituary is posted here: Sean C. Kirk, 1966-2012

William Diehl has a great picture of Sean posted on his website:
Brakeman Sean Kirk has been on duty this day since 06:15 that morning, it's now 18:11, and his Federal "Hours of Service" is about to expire.

Michele and Jason Rose also have a great photo of Sean, with Texans Cody & Casey, posted on their website:

According to Sean's obituary, in lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Sean's name to the Injured Marine Sempi Fi Fund or by mail to Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund, 825 College Blvd, Suite 102, PMB 609, Oceanside, CA 92057.
