An ailing Northern California man delivered his own obituary to a newspaper then hanged himself from a nearby bridge.
El Dorado County sheriff's Lt. Bryan Golmitz says the body of 64-year-old Allan Leo Peters II was found Wednesday hanging by a yellow rope from an old bridge.
The Mountain Democrat newspaper published part of his suicide note with his obituary.
The man wrote he'd been struggling with emphysema and had trouble breathing. He wrote, "Yes, I have hanged myself (At least I hope I did)."
The suicide note included a $90 money order, the cost of publishing an obituary.
R.I.P.
