Tookie's Ashes To Be Scattered in Africa
By: VIBEOnline Staff

December 16, 2005

Stanley "Tookie" Williams' wish to have his ashes scattered in South Africa is met.

Tookie, who’d become a Nobel Prize nominee for his work as an author of anti-gang children’s tales, stated in one of his books, “I want to be buried in South Africa under a yohirimbi tree or my ashes scattered in the Blue Nile River to feed the fish there,” and his family and friends are making sure his wishes become true.

With the help of former South Africa president, Nelson Mandela’s ex-wife, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, who offered to help fulfill his wish, Tookie’s ashes will be scattered in South Africa, following a public funeral next week Tuesday (December 20th) in Los Angeles.

Stanley “Tookie” Williams, Crips gang co-founder, was executed December 13th after serving 26 years of his life sentence for murder. Confirmed funeral speakers include Jesse Jackson and Snoop Dogg.

I love how the left keeps throwing up the Nobel Prize nominee thing. Big frigging deal. Anyone could be nominated. I could be nominated! Nomination means nothing. Perhaps if he won it, it would be worth mentioning.

With the help of 'Necklace Winnie' AKA 'Mad-dog' Madikizela-Mandela, the murdering, gang-banger ex-wife of the commie ex-president of South Africa, who offered to help fulfill his wish, Tookie’s ashes will be scattered in South Africa.

How (sniff!) touching; so...fitting! Mutual admiration at work. It just chokes me up.

"my ashes scattered in the Blue Nile River to feed the fish there"

SHouldn't it be "my ash" if it is to turn to grass?

Maybe having his ashes scattered on the land of a butchered white farmer in Zimbabwe might have been more appropriate...

He was smarter than I thought. No "piss on the grave party" for the real masses.
