Miriam Snyder

Here lies Miss Miriam Alicia Lee Snyder
A well-known neighborhood insider
She fell into a large vat of apple cider
Not covered by her life insurance rider.

The toughest part is getting your rider to cover apple cider!

I couldn't think of a more awful way to go, so I drowned her in a vat of cider.

My perverse sense of humor slips out now and then, Bill. Thanks for the comment. Glad my piece brought a smile to your face.
