Leave 'em Laughing

from Journalism/Works

When Walter George Buehl Jr. of Delaware died on March 9 at age 80, his legacy included his family, service in the U.S. Marines, and a great sense of humor — and an obituary he wrote himself that has become an internet sensation. A conversation with Dennis Forney, publisher of Beuhl’s hometown newspaper, The Cape Gazette, looks at what Walter wrote — and why community newspapers like his are more than just “the news.”
