This funeral is longer than the final episode of M*A*S*H. How many times can they send off the same person?

One of the richest men in my home town had this done with his ashes too. His family had sponsored an annual fireworks display every year and they added this one year.

The Thompson family hired fireworks giant Zambelli Internationale to fulfill the writer's last wish of having his ashes scattered in a fireworks show over his Owl Farm estate in Woody Creek, Colo., near Aspen.

Y'all should take a road trip...

At the end of the ceremony, a torch will be passed to Michael Moore.
