"A beloved grandfather died in what police are calling a freak accident at a Nebraska McDonald's drive-thru. Michael Dickinson, 69, suffered fatal injuries after he somehow became trapped between the payment window and his car at the fast food chain's store in Grand Island, some 24 miles southwest of Lincoln, local authorities said. It appears the deceased opened the door to further reach out of the window for payment purposes, Grand Island Police Division Chief Dean Elliott told KSNB-TV."
"On a GoFundMe page, Dickinson's family remembered him as a devoted family man who cared deeply for those closest to him and a skilled and hardworking mechanic. Michael took pride in his work and had a gift for fixing what was broken. It reflected who he wasreliable, practical, and dedicated, they wrote. Though his life was cut short, Michael's love, loyalty, and kindness will live on in the hearts of his family and friends. He will be dearly missed and always remembered."
