An ailing 94-year-old World War II veteran has won immense support after making a very unusual request. Upon his passing, the veteran wants his casket painted to resemble a pack of Juicy Fruit gum.
Ex-Navy officer and former restaurant boss Suttie Economy served on the USS English on the Pacific Front during the war. Since retiring, he has garnered a loveable reputation for himself by handing out packets of the fruit-flavored gum to figureheads of his community.
