With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the
moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person,
which almost went unnoticed.

Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Pokey", died peacefully at the
age of 93. The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the
coffin. They put his left leg in.
And then the trouble started.

Okay - dumb question - did he really die?
