Ohio man's final wish was to be buried on his Harley.

[mfcorey1]

The dying wish of an Ohio motorcycle aficionado that he be buried astride his beloved Harley-Davidson was fulfilled by his family -- although it wasn't easy.
Billy Standley's body was prepped by five embalmers with a metal back brace and straps, The Dayton Daily News reported. He was affixed on top of his bike – a 1967 Electra Glide cruiser-- which was then placed inside a Plexiglas casket. For five years, the box stayed in Standley's garage, one of his sons told the newspaper.
Standley also had to buy additional burial plots that could accommodate the casket.

3. Too bad we do not have Stevie Ray Vaughn to sing him a song

Billy Standley was buried today
They laid him to rest in a special way
Sent him off in the finest style
That Electra Glide casket really drove 'em wild
Mechanicsburg Ohio will think of him often
Talkin' 'bout Billy Standley and his Electra Glide coffin
Billy Standley and his Electra Glide coffin

That casket, it looked like a Harley ride
Sittin' there crusin' his Electra Glide
Billy had a wide open throttle starin' straight ahead
never gonna see another light turn red
black leather jacket he's looking awesome
Billy Standley and his Electra Glide coffin
Yeah Billy Standley and his Electra Glide coffin

4. In 1000 years he will be in a museum or an objet d'art in a 1%ers house.

Cool idea more people should get creative in memorializing their life.

If some of the 1%ers got creative they could surpass the pyramids or Taj Mahal in grandeur and predictably they would all have to surpass each other which would create many jobs.

Does anyone actually think the Donald is going to end up in an urn or a hole in the ground? His ego won't allow it.

5. Thank god they made him wear a helmet.

6. The dirt they shovel on him might have a rock

hidden in it. The helmet will protect him.

I guess it just wouldn't be Billy without his glasses.
