Leroy "Blast" Bill Black was much loved, as evidenced by the fact that he has two obituaries printed in today's Press of Atlantic City.

It might have looked like a mistake on the obituary page this morning when two identical-looking (at first glance) listings appeared on top of one another, but the two different, but similar, obituaries were placed by his wife and girlfriend, respectively.

I can’t help wondering if this is some sort of elaborate prank.

Curious if they had anything to do with “creating” the obituaries?

Because the newspaper just collected twice the obit ad revenue for one guy dying...new ad sales technique coming right up- contact the ex-wife, give her a copy of the new wife’s obit, ask her if she’d like to post anything in reply.

“Your honor, it was FIBERGLASS EXPOSURE, as evidenced even in this newspaper obituary, that took this beloved victim from his long-suffering families. We seek fifteen million dollars in damages...”

Atlantic City Press? Sounds more like the Asbury Park Daily Kama Sutra.

I see he worked as a fiberglas technician and died at a relatively young age (55) of lung cancer from exposure to the fiberglas according to the obit posted by the girlfriend. There may be a fairly large settlement coming to his estate and I have to wonder if he made a provision for “Princess.”

Looks like the girlfriend didn't know about the Fitzpatrick kids.
