There should be more obituaries like this, not less. No wonder they won't call out the scumbags actually walking around. #StarTribune #Strib

@wellgoshacs.bsky.soc...

the Star Tribune just called me and told me they would not be publishing the obituary I wrote for my father as it is "unfair to him" and "in poor taste" so here it is and fuck the strib

Charles Dudley Krenz, 72, died from complications of bile duct cancer on May 29 at his home in Winston, Oregon.

Charles spent the majority of his life making poor use out of every opportunity and privilege awarded him and attempting to make everyone around him as miserable as he was. Bright but lacking curiosity, confident but devoid of empathy, Charles was given second, third, even fourth chances throughout his life, but squande > them with a predictable consistency that borders on deliberate.

At the time of his death, he had alienated himself from almost all who cared for him. Those people will not be surprised that there was no deathbed change of heart here. Chaz remained unpleasant until the very end.

Charles is preceded in death by his partner Jacquelyn Sullivan, whose warmth and good graces provided a reason for others to tolerate him for 27 years until her death from ovarian cancer in 2017. He is survived by his two children, AC Sullivan and Hank <van, who, in the years since their father sie a bunch of money from them and skipped town, have been both relieved and dismayed to learn that breaking generational curses only really takes a modicum of personal effort.
