Jackson, Mississippi. United States of America. (age 28). (car hit moving freight train). buried:Restlawn Memorial Park. ..........Altus, Oklahoma. Voyt and his Dad owned a successful foreign car (Renault) dealership in Jackson, MS. On a Thursday at 1 AM, he was driving home and struck the middle of a moving freight train and was killed. The engineer didn't know it. The RR crossing was unlighted and unguarded. The city had been pushing for the IC Railroad to install crossing gates as this had been the 5th accident at the site that year. Voyt left a wife and 2 children. His widow sued the RR for $700,000 but was awarded $60,000 on the grounds of Voyt's "contributory negligence" as he was "speeding".
