Dear TN, It is w/ the saddest heart that I have to pass on the following:
The Pillsbury Doughboy died Monday of a severe yeast infection & complications from repeated pokes to the belly.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of Celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, The Calif. Raisins,Hungry Jack,Betty Crocker, The Hostess Twinkies, & Capt. Crunch.,The Gravesite was pi led high w/ Flours, as longtime Friend, Aunt Jemima, delivered the eulogy, describing Doughboy as a man who "never knew how much he was kneaded!"
Doughboy rose quickly in Show Business, but his later life was filled w/ many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little bit flaky at times, even as a crusty old man, he was considered a roll model for millions.
Toward the end, it was thought he'd rise once again, but he was no tart.
He is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. They have 2 Children & 1 in the oven.
The Funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 min.
