When Peter Hodge learned he had terminal motor neurone disease, he requested his remains be mixed in with the special groundbait he used to catch fish in his local river. The 61-year-old, from Puriton, near Bridgewater in Somerset said he wanted to swim with his favorite fish in the spot where he spent 40 happy years angling. After his death last month he was cremated in a wicker fishing basket coffin, and his ashes were mingled with 30lb of fish food. "He wanted the fish to gobble him up so he could swim up and down the river after his death." Source: Telegraph
