The Mark Twain Memorial Bridge at Hannibal. It opened in 2000. There's a tiny plaque on it in memory of my cousin Tim, a civil engineer with the highway department, who died in a tractor accident just as the construction was completed.

"The Mark Twain Memorial Bridge at Hannibal." Linbaw! That's the railroad lawyer's name, I'm pretty sure of it. Really good talker.
Did some work near Cape Girardeau, iirc.

Sad to learn of your cousin, may he rest in peace and with God.
