in That's life
When John “Jack” William Carew, 82, of Shores Cove on Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula, died Saturday, his family faced the usual quandary of whether to accept flowers or request donations to a favorite charity. Mr. Carew’s obituary in the St. John’s Evening Telegram offered a uniquely Newfoundland solution:
Blueberries and bakeapples will be accepted in lieu of flowers.
A relative of yours, Stan?
