Family: Bush's America killed loved one
Stress of 'stolen election of 2000 and living with right-winged
Americans'
June 22, 2005
A 53-year-old Arizona man died this month due to the stress of "the
stolen election of 2000 and living with right-winged Americans,"
according to a death notice published by his family.
Corwyn William Zimbleman, of Tucson, was an accomplished artist, the
notice said, and an "avid atheist, he studied the bible [sic] and
religion with more fervor than most Christians."
The notice then reads:
He had strong political opinions and followed Amy Goodman's radio
broadcast "Democracy Now." Alas the stolen election of 2000 and living
with right-winged Americans finally brought him to his early demise.
Stress from living in this unjust country brought about several heart
attacks rendering him disabled.
Zimbleman died June 10, and a memorial service was scheduled for
yesterday.
In another politically charged death notice, the family of 71-year-old
Sally Baron, who died in 2003, reflected her apparent disregard for
the president.
The Aug. 21, 2003, notice in the Capital Times of Madison, Wis.,
stated:
Memorials in her honor can be made to any organization working for the
removal of President Bush.
An article in the Capital Times the same day as Baron's death notice
said her children had no question she would approve.
"She thought he was a liar," Baron's daughter, Maureen Bettilyon,
said. "I think his personality, just standing there with that smirk on
his face, and acting like he's this holy Christian, that's what really
got her."
Joe Baron said his mother "just didn't trust that a big corporate guy
was going to be doing what was best for her. She just really didn't
trust him."
