CRYSTAL LAKE, Ill., July 27 (UPI) -- A United Parcel Service driver in Crystal Lake, Ill., was delivered to his grave following his death by one of the company's vehicles, his wife says.
Judy Hornagold said the fact her husband Jeff's body was taken to the cemetery Saturday in his friend's UPS truck was a great tribute for a man who worked for the shipping company for 20 years, the Crystal Lake (Ill.) Northwest Herald reported.
UPS driver Michael McGowan was in charge of the very special delivery, which included moving his former co-worker's casket from a funeral home to St. Thomas the Apostle Church.
The Herald said Hornagold died of lung cancer Tuesday.
