Hilarious Obit Says Man 'Won't Be Around To Install Heavy AC'
"He leaves behind his sister Jennifer Leighton, who is now automatically promoted to favorite child status."

WEBSTER, MA—This guy must have been hilarious. His family is clearly funny. This obituary for a beloved son, friend and brother who died at age 40 after a battle with cancer veers off the standard morose blueprint and expresses a loss with irreverent humor and wit.
As someone who recently shared it on social media wrote, "THIS is how to write an Obit!"
David Brussiere from Webster died on Nov. 17 after a "courageous battle with cancer." His friends and family will surely miss him, and feel the void, but they didn't let that cloud a sense of humor.

"He leaves behind his sister Jennifer Leighton, who is now automatically promoted to favorite child status," reads the obituary. "She and her husband Corey will feel David’s absence most each May when he is not around to help install the heavy a/c in their house."
Brussiere loved painting, writing, astrology, design and a host of other things, apparently good at everything he did. He also loved animals, got an art degree, and had some kind of incident with a blender at Disney.

"He also had second thoughts about spending so many years as a vegetarian, since clearly the diet’s promise of a long and healthy life didn’t pan out," it continues.
The family says Bussiere is likely eating a lot of buffalo chicken with his father in grandfather in a peaceful place, and that before he died he "requested really ridiculously huge amounts of money be sent to the Jimmy Fund in appreciation of his last 30 years."
