It is heavy heart that we pass on the following
news.
The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday ... of
yeast infection and complications, from repeated
pokes to the belly. He was 71 .
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.
Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their
respects, including Mrs. Butterworth , Hungry Jack ,
the California Raisins , Betty Crocker , and Captain
Crunch.
The gravesite was piled high with flours. { note sp. }
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described
Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was
kneaded { note sp. }
Doughboy rose quickly in show business , but his
later life was filled with turnovers .
He was not considered a very smart cookie , wasting
much of his dough on half-baked schemes . Despite
being a little flaky at times , he still , as a crusty old man ,
was considered a roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife , Play Dough , and
two children , John and Jane , and they have one in the
oven ....He is survived also by his father , Pop Tart .
The funeral was held at 3:50 for About 20 mintues ...
