His body will not be interred in a big truck, but in a series of tubes.

What's messed up is that he survived another plane crash in Alaska a while back which killed his first wife. From what I've been reading the flight conditions are very dangerous up there.

Now we won't be able to identify his femur bone in the game "Alas poor who".
