I was born & raised here. I seem to remember something about this ‘John Doe’ having female clothing all around him, too. As if he was dressed as a girl as he disintegrated. ;)

‘The People’s Republic of Madistan’ has always welcomed all kinds of weirdos. *Rolleyes*

For a long time they thought it was a prank of some sort. Now that they know who he is, I wonder if they’ll be able to find out who killed him, or if he was robbing the building (I don’t think it was always a Music Store) and trying to come down the chimney to do it?

So many questions! ;)

This article was short of a key detail. When did he disappear?

Discovered in the chimney in 1989, after... 10 years? 20?

At least from the looks of it, he died of the flue.

Drunk or drugged up.

Not certain, but likely.

Good'nLoud moved to the University Avenue location in 1989 and closed that location in 2010.

Before 1989 it had been the Bread Shop, a Christian bookstore.
