Anyone else got any "interesting" obits to pop up here for a slow Sunday evening?

It’s like the never-ending story.

Gee, I wonder if they’ll mention her husband in her forthcoming obituary since half of his included information about her?

She must have been wife #2 considering they were only married 28 years and she looks a whole lot younger than him in the pic

I wonder what the children from the first marriage have to say about her and none of the six children were mentioned by name.

One of my favorites in the Dallas paper obit mentioned how the deceased was “blessed with beautiful skin and hair”

Actually, at least it’s interesting.

When my husband died I was too upset to have a hand in his obit. All it says is a bunch of names, where he was born and that he used to be a letter carrier. He HATED being a letter carrier.

I know he would have liked it much more if it had talked about his music or his family.

Now this man jumped in the water and saved a bunch of people when a guy blew his finger off. That was probably one of his favorite stories, and now everyone knows. Egad.
