    93-year-old on motorcycle dies after hitting van



    — A 93-year-old died when the motorcycle he was driving hit a parked van.

    The incident occurred Tuesday afternoon in the Barefoot Bay mobile home community. Police say Gordon Couchene was riding a Yamaha motorcycle and did not wear a helmet.

    Authorities say 37-year-old Lynn Bedus had parked at the western end of the 5,000-home retirement community while she waited on a school bus to arrive.

    Paramedics initially revived Couchene, but he later died at the hospital.

    The Florida Highway Patrol says there will be no charges in the wreck. It was unclear why Couchene ran into the van.

    Thanks for the article.

    I have to say though, there are far worse ways to go when you are 93.

    R.I.P. Mr. Couchene
