10-204-MRC

CHICAGO (ELCA) -- The Rev. Elizabeth C. Birkholz's grandfather loved
to tell the story about Felix "Bush" Breazeale, a reclusive man from Cave
Creek, Tenn., who threw himself a funeral party -- while still alive --
in 1938, so he could hear what people would say about him. Birkholz's
grandfather, Frank "Buddy" Robinson, drove the hearse. More than 10,000
people attended the funeral.
