Meyers resident dies following car accident

Mikey Sheehan

Meyers resident Mikey Sheehan died Nov. 21 from injuries he sustained in a vehicle accident the week before.

Sheehan was driving by himself Nov. 14 in Truckee on Highway 89 south of Sagehen when his vehicle drifted off the side of the road for unknown reasons. The vehicle rolled and he was ejected, according to the California Highway Patrol.

Sheehan died at Renown Medical Center in Reno.

Sheehan worked at Freshies in South Lake Tahoe as a waiter, and as the beer and wine buyer.

Music was a passion of his. He was also a huge Giants fan, though he kept his loyalty to the Orioles since Baltimore is where he hailed from.

Sheehan is survived by his parents, David J. and Elizabeth A. Sheehan; sister Kerry DiBiagio (Mark); niece and nephew Molly and Anthony DiBiagio; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

The family, who are in Maryland, had a private service and interment.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to the American Cancer Society, 8219 Town Center Drive, Baltimore, MD 21236.
