Just found this obituary among some old papers. Thought you might find it of interest.
New York (UPI). Veteran Pillsbury spokesman Poppin' Fresh died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and complications reusulting from repeated pokes to the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was honored at one of the largest funeral ceremonies in recent years. Dozens of celebrities turned out, including Mrs. Butterworth, the California Raisins, Hungry Jack, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, Cap'n Crunch, Tony Tiger, and many others.
The graveside was piled high with flours as long-time friend Aunt Jemimah delivered the eulogy. She described Doughboy as a man who "never knew he was kneaded."
Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with many turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Still, even as a crusty old man, he was a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his second wife, Play Dough. they have two children and one in the oven. The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes

The 9th Marines of my time in the Corps/VietNam were legendary. I served with the 11th Marines during 1968-69. One of my close friends in Austin served in "The Walking Dead". My unit was leaving KheSanh just as I arrived in country.
I salute all of you.

My hat is off to you. My time was in Japan and Okinawa in 1957 and 1958. In 1962 I turned down a "ring knocker's" commission. I often wonder if I had done the right thing. But working as a psychologist for nearly 40 years had its rewards.
I SEMPER FI, my friend. I have never been an oo-rah Marine Corps veteran. Anyone wearing a uniform deserves respect and appreciation. I don't think I would care to be on a submarine, nor do I relish jumping out of an aircraft. Even noncombatants serve a vital function. You can't go long without rations, pay, or such things.
Although we may view things differently politically we are all Americans--at least most of us are. I just wish folks could sit down and engage in meaningful dialogue rather than sticking to idealogical mantras.

Having read a number of your posts, I can't recall seeing much of any disagreement between yourself and I. I have no doubt I would have been proud to have served with you, although like you, I do not care for either water or air service. I preferred terra firma. It led to my being hit, but...at least I fell only a short ways! :wink:
BTW, my step-mom was both nurse and clinical psychologist.
Glad to have had this informal introduction :!: :thumbup:
