ASHLAND, Ore. - Even in death, Chet Fitch is a card. Fitch, known for his sense of humor, died in October at age 88 but gave his friends and family a start recently: Christmas cards, 34 of them, began arriving — written in his hand with a return address of "Heaven."

What a joker; pulling a gag like this from beyond the grave!

Hope The Almighty gives him extra credit for his humor.

That’s hysterical! We’re gonna meet some fun people in Heaven :-).

A warm fuzzy, indeed.

I wonder if the postage was extra.

I’m wondering who else was in on it, I mean I know the Post Awful can be kinda slow... ;)

LOL! Roger on the "snail mail". The article says his hairdresser was the willing accomplice. Great practical joke, though.

You know, it reminded me of years back when, after Yul Brynner had died of lung cancer, the Ad Council aired an anti-smoking commercial on TV starring an eerily not dead yet Yul Brynner.

Creepy!

You have to admire his unwavering belief in where he was going.

Insurance fraud.
