PEOPLE BEING PEOPLE
An Ohio man’s family has fulfilled his dying wish to be buried astride his beloved 1967 Harley-Davidson motorbike.

The biker, dressed in black leathers, was then transported to his extra-large burial plot in a 9-by-11-foot Plexiglas coffin, which his two sons built so the world could see him ride off to heaven. “He’d done right by us,” said his son Pete, “and at least we could see he goes out the way he wanted to.”
