Oregon man dies 'peacefully' after told Trump was impeached

An Oregon man died "peacefully" after a friend falsely told him that President Trump had been impeached.

Michael Garland Elliot died on April 6, according to his obituary in The Oregonian, and the final words he heard were that the president had been impeached.

Elliot’s “ex-wife and best friend” Teresa Elliot shared the false news to bring him comfort in his final moments, according to the obit.
"Mike ran out of family long ago and is survived by his ex-wife and best friend, Teresa Elliott," the obituary read. "Though their marriage ran aground, their friendship only grew stronger and hers was the last voice Mike heard. And the last thing she said to him was 'Donald Trump has been impeached.' Upon hearing that he took his final, gentle breath, his earthly work concluded,” reads the obituary.

A proper memorial is planned for August.

I don't know if they know this but August isn't after April. It's way past it as a matter of fact.

When my  died in the VA hospital in Salt lake he was immediately cremated in Utah. It was easier that way. Didn't have to mess with the paperwork of transporting his dead body across state lines and all. Plus paying the effing fees. My cousin then brought him back home a couple of days later.

We had a memorial 7 weeks later in June. BBQed a whole pig. Set up those open canopy tents with chairs and tables inside borrowed from the LDS church. Had a room set up with a life sketch on a laptop. Flowers, pics, urn. Gave people a chance to attend. They could make plans to attend instead of rushing to a funeral. Over 150 people came and went over a couple of days.

People really liked it. I liked it.
