I ran across Sarah’s blog while reading Paula’s and saw this tragic news. I just had to post it here, as a conscientious Music City citizen, in honor of such a great songwriter.

With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person which almost went unnoticed last week.

Larry La Prise, the man who wrote “The Hokey Pokey”, died peacefully at age 93.

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin.

They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.

SHUT UP. You know it’s funny!
