It is with a sad heart that I pass on the following news:Join me 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 respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the HostessTwinkies and Captain Crunch.The grave site was piled high with flours.Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and 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 smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes.Despite being flaky at times, he still,as a crusty old man, was considered a roll model for many.Doughboy is survived by wife, Play Dough; children John DougDough & Jane Dough. The funeral was held at 3:50 for 20 minutes
