Florida Man Remembered In Shocking Obituary

Now-deceased Florida man Arthur Nixon Bates IV is being remembered for a life of “Marlboros, fast women, and Ford Broncos.” An obituary honoring Bates was recently published in the Tampa Bay Times. “He is survived by three daughters, none of whom know how they will get by without dad calling to ask for $20 for cigarettes and methadone,” the scandalous obit reads. Comments on Legacy.com appear to confirm that Bates was a bit of a wild man. “We’re fixing to ask the Bucs to shoot your ashes out of their pirate ship cannons after a touchdown,” one mourner wrote. “He still owes me 20 bucks,” another said.
