Family and friends are mourning the unexpected death of a Mt. Pleasant man.

Isabella County Sheriff Michael Main says 96-year-old John Gage was driving near Remus (M20) and Winn roads on Saturday morning when he collided with another vehicle.

Although no serious injuries were apparent at the time, Gage complained of arm pain and was taken to the hospital where he later died.

Further investigation revealed Gage had a medical issue brought on by the accident.
