Obits: Our Beloved Doughboy

Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury Doughboy passed away yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma from repeated pokes in the belly.

Doughboy was sent on in a lightly greased cookie sheet. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. They piled the grave site high with flours.

Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions. Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, two children, John Dough and Jane Dough, who had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.


The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

If this made you smile for even a brief moment, please rise to the occasion and take time to pass it on and share your smile with someone else that may be having a crumby day and kneads it.
