I told the wife, when I die, put me in a 55 gallon drum filled with Father Dempsey’s and set me ablaze.

If Hoffa can do it, you can do it.

My remains will be interred in a vintage Dunhill My Mixture apothecary jar that I have displayed.  |

If I'm embalmed and buried, I request my Charles Towne Cobbler be packed and sent along with me, along with a filled fountain pen. If cremated, sprinkle some of my favorite tobacco on top of my cremains before I'm inurned. I would specify the tobacco, but I'm pretty sure whomever is making that decision won't be particular; they should have plenty to choose from!

I've always fancied a Viking funeral off the shore of Lake Michigan, but I have a sneaking suspicion the authorities in Chicago might not smile on the idea. If somebody wants to sprinkle some Scottish Blend on my grave or mix a bit with my ashes, depending, that would be fine. But don't bury any of my pipes with me, I'd rather they go to someone who would enjoy them.

I like Father Dempsey's. I don't smoke it often but I do like it.

I'm not sure I'd fit in a 55 gallon drum. I'd have a difficult time myself. Maybe if they ran me through a wood chipper first. |

Anyone under 400 pounds can be made to fit in a 55 gallon drum. Don't ask me how I know.

What if the drum is already full of Father Demsey  then I'd have to sit beside the drum and smoke a three Hunderd pound bowl. I think I'll just go with a pipe in one pocket, and some tobacco in the other...by now , Heaven is run by non-smokers anyway. |
