Give me your charred masses, urning to be free

According to the 30 January 2002 edition of USA Today and a certain little calendar-like boxy thing at work,

Ed Headrick, inventor of the Frisbee died at the age of 78 years exactly 5 years ago. He family cremated his body and molded the ashes into the shape of a flying saucer.

One wit observed that now the grandkids could always play catch with grandpa.
