William Ziegler escaped this mortal realm on Friday, July 29, 2016 at
the age of 69. We think he did it on purpose to avoid having to make a
decision in the pending presidential election.
He leaves behind four children, five grand- children, and the potted
meat industry, for which he was an unofficial spokesman until dietary
restrictions forced him to eat real food.
William volunteered for service in the United States Navy at the ripe
old age of 17 and immediately realized he didn't much enjoy being
bossed around. He only stuck it out for one war. Before his discharge,
however, the government exchanged numerous ribbons and medals for
various honorable acts.
Upon his return to the City of New Orleans in 1971, thinking it best
to keep an eye on him, government officials hired William as a
fireman. After twenty-five years, he suddenly realized that running
away from burning buildings made more sense than running toward them.

A rancher, agitator, Amrein dies at 70
Eccentric’ or ‘ill,’ cowboy ecologist was a Jackson character.
Terrence "Terry" Amrein lived most his life in and around Jackson
Hole, ranching and doing other people’s ranch work, taking odd jobs,
sometimes sleeping in his van or borrowing a place to flop, orating at
public meetings and butting heads with the powers that be.
...
...
Amrein was a man who was on good terms with some, bad with others, and
good and bad alternately with a few. He was a Jackson Hole
personality, a crank who still found people who saw something in him
that made them willing to help him.
