Inventor in a Can

Fredric J. Baur, inventor of the Pringles can (though not the potato chip) died May 4, 2008, at the age of 89. He received a patent for his innovative design in 1970.

Per Mr. Baur's instructions, part of his cremated ashes were placed in a Pringle's can and buried in his grave in Springfield Township, Ohio.

Re: Inventor in a Can

And we're only hearing about his expiration now, on 3rd June?

A bit creepy, his last ash wish. Where are the rest of his ashes buried?
