last drive-thru visit ever

[jeff of pa]

YORK, Pa. (AP) — Mourners at a Pennsylvania fast-food fan's funeral wanted him to have it his way, so they arranged for his hearse — and the rest of the procession — to make one last drive-thru visit before reaching the cemetery.

To give him a whopper of a send-off Saturday, the funeral procession stopped at a Burger King where each mourner got a sandwich for the road.
Kime got one last burger too, the York Daily Record reported. It was placed atop his flag-draped coffin at the cemetery.

Hey if this is something that was important to this man then I say i'm glad to see that they took the time to allow him to say goodbye to something that he enjoyed.. People are creatures of habit and not all habits make sense to everybody but this guy at least got one last time to be somewhere he enjoyed... Not something you see everyday....

I suppose that McDonalds charged sales tax on the dead guy's burger. That is rediculous! I guess that taxes never end.......even for the dead.
