Buried in work

OK, that was probably in poor taste, since I'm talking about a man's last wishes, but I couldn't help it.

Dr. Fredric J. Baur the Proctor & Gamble designer expressed that upon death he would like to be cremated and buried in his favorite packaging design: The Pringles can. The Associated Press reports:
"Baur's children said they honored his request to bury him in one of the cans by placing part of his cremated remains in a Pringles container in his grave in suburban Springfield Township. The rest of his remains were placed in an urn buried along with the can, with some placed in another urn and given to a grandson, said Baur's daughter, Linda Baur of Diamondhead, Miss."
I think this is fabulous. Rest in peace Dr. Baur.
