AUBURN, Mass. (AP) An Auburn man's phone bill has followed him to his grave.
A local cemetery received a phone bill last week for David Towles at his correct address Hillside Cemetery, Evergreen Section, Auburn, Mass. 01501.
Towles was buried there in December 1997, after dying at age 60.
Cemetery Superintendent Wayne Bloomquist says he was surprised to see the Sprint bill for 12 cents, including 10 cents for a call placed on Feb. 16, five years after Towles died.
''Our clients here don't usually get mail,'' he told the Auburn News. ''I wondered if maybe we should start putting mailboxes on the monuments.''
