                It is with the saddest heart that we must pass on the 
following news.     Please join us in remembering a great icon of the 
entertainment community.

                The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast 
infection and complications from repeated pokes in the belly.     He was 
71.      Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin.

                Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, 
including Mrs. Buttersworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty 
Crocker, the Hostess twinkies, and Captain Crunch.

                The gravesite was piled 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 his dough on half-baked 
schemes.     Despite being a little flaky at times he still, as a crusty 
old man, was considered a roll model for millions.

                Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play Dough; two 
children, John Dough and Jane Dough; plus they had one in the oven.     
He is also survived by his elderly Dad, Pop Tart.

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