An Irishman's colourful obituary has gone viral after being published on Sea Coast Online.
Chris Connors died aged 67 in Maine after a long fight against motor neurone disease and stage 4 pancreatic cancer.
"Anyone else fighting ALS and stage 4 pancreatic cancer would have gone quietly into the night, but Connors was stark naked drinking Veuve in a house full of friends and family as Al Green played from the speakers."
He is described as a ladies man, game slayer, and outlaw. It also states that he died from stubbornness and whiskey.
Sea Coast Online shared the post on Twitter with the caption: "This family-submitted obituary is perhaps the most colourful we've ever received".
The obituary says: "As much as people knew hanging out with him would end in a night in jail or a killer screwdriver hangover, he was the type of man that people would drive 16 hours at the drop of a dime to come see. He lived 1000 years in the 67 calendar years we had with him because he attacked life; he grabbed it by the lapels, kissed it, and swung it back onto the dance floor.
"At the age of 26 he planned to circumnavigate the world - instead, he ended up spending 40 hours on a life raft off the coast of Panama. In 1974, he founded the Quincy Rugby Club. In his thirties, he sustained a knife wound after saving a woman from being mugged in New York City. He didn't slow down: at age 64, he climbed to the base camp of Mount Everest."
Instead of flowers, the obituary asks readers to pay an open bar tab or make a donation the Chris Connors Fund.
