There are a number of ways we use to keep the memories of our loved ones alive.
A man in Alabama claims a burglar broke into his home and smoked his decreased wife’s ashes. Vietnam War Veteran Phillip McMullen left his house temporarily to stay with some friends last week.
When he returned home he found his residence had been ransacked. The suspect unsuccessfully attempted to open up his gun safe and got into his wife’s ashes.
McMullen found the remains strewn around the house. He remarked “I guess they figured out this stuff ain’t worth smoking, so they threw it up underneath one of my toolboxes.”
McMullen is sharing his story, in the hopes that the person responsible will be caught. The suspect gained entry into the home via a window. He or she made off with 15 items including fishing rods, reels, a chainsaw, knife and generator.
The Mobile County Sheriff’s Office has launched an investigation into the case and hopes someone will come forward with information.
