Her daughter writes a hilarious obituary for her father who made unpleasant jokes

A beloved man who "tortured his siblings" with "hateful pranks" and assigned license plate numbers to his daughters' boyfriends was recognized in a funky virus obituary.

Joe Heller, from Connecticut, died Sunday at the age of 82 – "his last unworthy and largely irreverent gesture," read his obituary written by his daughter Monique Heller.

A childhood during the Great Depression "has resulted in a life of frugality, hoarding, and cheap mischief, often to the detriment of others," it was said. Joe happily tormented his siblings with "odious pranks", including baking a chocolate cake with laxatives and naming the "Fart" family dog ​​to embarrass his mother when he was calling for it. animal at home.

A former library employee at Yale Law School, Joe joined the Navy. After an honorable release, he was a volunteer firefighter and guardian of the crossing.

Monique wrote that Joe had met his wife Irene, "who was convinced that he was a charming individual with a decorum. Boy, had she ever been wrong. Joe bothered her daily with her mouth and her choice of clothes. To this day, we do not understand how he convinced our mother, an extremely decent woman and pillar in his church, to sew and create the colorful costumes and accessories that he had used for his antics. "

Enthusiastic father of three girls, Joe volunteered to become a model for "beauty institutes". When his daughters were old enough to go out with him, he managed the registration plates of their boyfriends and left shotguns and harpoons around the house when the dates came. .

"Joe was a hard-working customer at Essex Dump and he left his family with a house full of shit, 300 pounds of bird seeds and dead indoor plants that they have no idea of. what to do, "read the obit. "… Joe was also an accomplished doily. He had not fallen asleep on a street, restaurant or friend 's house in Essex. There was not a too formal occasion or an event too painful that Joe did not interrupt with his apnea and his bulging snores. "

Monique did not immediately respond to a Yahoo Lifestyle interview request. She told CNN, "My father has an unorthodox view of life and I wanted to pay tribute to him and make people smile."
