Add to the mix, Kathleen, that he was Jewish so would want nothing to do with that practice.
Come to think of it, one doesn't need to be Jewish to find baptism for the deceased (newly or otherwise,) reprehensible.
The Three Stooges were also Jewish. Many others who grace that hall of fame: Mel Brooks, Woody Allen, Sarah Silverstein, Sacha Cohen ...
Something about being Jewish and finding comedy through the pathos of life.
What famous Mormons are/were comedians? Honestly can't think of a single one. Besides the Osmonds during a stint of their early career. They weren't really that funny because they take themselves so seriously.

one MORmON ASSpostHOLE / PRofit was such an ASS clown, that he got up in front of an LD$ Inc insider gathering to speak and opened with joke about having (spent) lots of money, then as he had control of literally tons of money (as considered in hundred dollar bills) he boasted with a straight face about how he had given 3 hundred dollar bills to a local charity. The particular money stack that the 3 hundred dollars had been taken from weighed over 33 tons. That was just one of many/several such money stacks that the ASS Clown had access to, from stealing from people in the name of Jesus.

Lewis Black, Jerry Seinfeld. Maybe this goes way back. It might have saved their sanity while wandering in the desert. I can imagine a funny guy having Joshua and Moses rolling.
Tommy Monson stood out for trying to inject humor in his talks. I suspect his replacement might not have a funny bone.
Exactly....had I known I wouldn't...too soon old...too late smart...guy gave me a birthday card...when your twelve all you can think about is a nice car..lots of money...touch a boob...when your 65 all you can think about...a nice car...lots of money...touch a boob
Because it protects one's self. A legal marriage gives the spouse rights to their mutual stuff (investments, or house, or cars, etc.). Even a common law marriage can do this (if handled properly).
Without a will, the court and lawyers eat-up whatever money is in an estate when collecting their fees, while relatives may only get what's left.
