British husband reincarnated as egg timer
A British man has been reincarnated as an egg timer in a bid to make his widow smile every time she boils an egg. Malcolm Eccles, 50, died in February of bowel cancer and his ashes are now stored in a specially crafted glass egg timer in his family's kitchen. "I can't boil a soft egg to save my life," his wife Brenda told reporters Monday. "He knew that and said I should turn some of his ashes into an egg-timer. Then he could help me and it would be a nice way of remembering him. He had a good sense of humor which he kept right through to the end," she added.
