Received from Auntie K, a link to the obit for Frederic Arthur (Fred) Clark.
She was told, “The son of the man was interviewed on the radio last night in Richmond. His father died in an auto accident on Father’s Day. He said his father was a family man with a sense of humor. He said the newspaper edited the obituary, but the family was glad it was published – it was written by Mr. Clark.”
Reminds me a bit of this obit notice for Dorothy Gilman Cully, written by her son. I read about the Cully obit in the comments tail of a Miss Snark post.
Thanks, K.
