Daughter of Galveston man with savage obit tells why she did it

[n2doc]

Over the past week the obituary of Galveston’s Leslie Ray "Popeye" Charping has made the rounds after it was discovered on the Carnes Funeral Home website. The obit, biting and honest in tone, went so viral that it crashed funeral home's website.

Many people couldn’t believe that someone could be so callous to a family member. Others thought it was a joke or prank of some sort.

A member of the Charping family told host Michael Berry on “The Michael Berry Show” on Tuesday morning that she chose to tell the truth about her father in the obituary rather than sugarcoat a life that hurt others.

1. Her father must have been awful, but

the obituary made me sick. OK, maybe that's just me, but it did.

2. Good for her & her brother . May it help them heal now to be rid of his interference

in a very final way . Better to have no dad than one that is violent , mean and trouble
She should pick up the ashes and drop them in a dumpster

3. The dead guy doesn't care.
