CHEYENNE, WYOMING - The Wyoming Highway Patrol reports three people have died so far over the holiday weekend on the state's highways.

Two people died Saturday when the motorcycle they were riding on rear-ended a pickup truck about two miles southeast of Dubois. The highway patrol identified the victims as the motorcycle driver, 53-year-old Dean L. Hill of Green River, and passenger, 50-year-old Kathy L. Sander of Apple Valley, Minnesota.

In a separate accident, 41-year-old Laura G. Underwood of Searcy, Ark., died Sunday afternoon after her semitrailer rolled over while heading down Sherman Hill on I-80, about 8 miles east of Laramie.

Kathy was a very well liked customer that came into our store every morning for coffee , I have talked to the both of them, But always loved talking to kathy and listening to her storys. She will be missed badly. After I found out she had passed I could just see her face coming into the store and hear her loveably laugh. This really is a tragidy. My thoughts and prayers are with her's and Dean Hill's family.
