Corwyn (Cory) William Zimbleman
Tucson, AZ (formerly of Champaign, IL)
Age 53. Born April 18, 1952 to the late Willard and Gilda (Ebert) Zimbleman, died June 10, 2005. Throughout his life Cory was an extraordinary artist. His artistic talent and imagination would bring awe to all who viewed his work. His works grace an LP cover and numerous books; using Computer Aided Design (CAD) he designed home and business exteriors, interiors, and furniture for several architectural firms. His talent went beyond the fine arts as he added sculpturing, woodworking, metals, and other mediums to his repertoire. Having never gained the recognition he deserved in his own lifetime his family hopes to publish a book of his works. Another of his passions was herpetology. As a child he was always bringing home reptiles. His friends nicknamed him "Snake." He even built a turtle pond in his backyard. An avid atheist, he studied the bible and religion with more fervor than most Christians. He had strong political opinions and followed Amy Goodman's radio broadcast "Democracy Now." Alas the stolen election of 2000 and living with right-winged Americans finally brought him to his early demise. Stress from living in this unjust country brought about several heart attacks rendering him disabled. Cory, a great man, so very talented, compassionate and intelligent, dedicated to the arts and humanities and the environment, will be greatly missed by his wife, family, and friends. He is survived by his wife, Patricia Montiel; his step-daughter, Esperanza Hernandez both of Tucson; his brother, Mike (Dana) of St. Louis, MO; his sisters, Susan St. Claire of San Jose, CA and Laura Zimbleman of Ypsilanti, MI, and his turtles Heidie, Skinhead and Studley and many other pets. A memorial service will be held Tuesday, June 21, 2005 from 6:00 p.m.- 9:00 p.m., please call 883-2862 for information. Cremation has taken place.

We could do a whole thread on what the turtle on the far right is up to.
Waiting for seconds? Wasn't fast enough? Likes to watch? Thinks it's an Army training film?
OH MY GOSH!
Thanks, kayak!!!!!!
The couple had attended the wedding of the bride's sister and while they were at the beach for that, they decided to get married themselves. So they asked the preacher if he could hang around for a little while, then the girl borrowed her sister's wedding dress after the first couple had changed into more casual clothes (it wasn't a big formal dress with a train but something much simpler). IIRC, they got married in the lobby of the hotel in front of a large window looking out on the ocean. The wedding write-up then went on to mention family members of the new couple ... including her dogs. I kid you not!
I really wish I had kept the article so I could quote it exactly. I laughed til I cried when I read it.
You know, I LOVE my dog....but come on.....
I wish you would've saved it, too....TOO darn funny. Well, not AS funny as the turtles....
Post Election Stress Trauma.
Yeah, whatever. Better America, than some third rate sh!thole.
Even if you didn't read the obit, the picture was all you need to know about him. Must have come from central casting when they were looking for someone to look the part of "tree-hugging whacko atheist".
Say Hello to Rachel Corrie for us!
Disgusted with America and he ends up in the bottom of a buttcan.

"Stolen election" --- Someone should have referred this guy to Bill Sammon's "At Any Cost : How Al Gore Tried to Steal the Election". Perhaps he would not have been so delusional .............. or not.
ROFL
Comments?
So basicly this coal mine canary stressed hisself to death ?.........fitting for a socialist rat.
LOL!
Spontaneously, apparently.
If he was really a decent guy he would have had himself ground up into turtle food for Heidi and Studley!
