A head-on crash
The couple, who had been together for six years, died the night of May 27 when the motorcycle they were riding was struck by a pickup truck on State Road 200 a few miles from the Citrus County line.
In its press releases, the Florida Highway Patrol no longer publishes the names of people involved in crashes. As a result, Page and Heussner were not named in initial news accounts about the fatal wreck.
Florida Highway Patrol troopers said Page, who was driving, and Heussner were on a Harley-Davidson traveling northbound/eastbound, toward Ocala, on SR 200. A Chevy Silverado pickup, heading toward Citrus, was passing traffic on the two-lane road and hit the motorcycle head on, ejecting Page and Heussner.
