What were Leen’s brother’s final wishes?
“Put my brother to rest this week. He used to joke about making people put band stickers on his casket and throwing candy inside. Never thought that day would come so soon, but we made sure he had the most punk coffin in history,” she said.
She also explained why some of the stickers on the coffin had supernatural characters and why there had to be jokes made at his burial.
“Some of y’all might’ve noticed the supernatural stickers on my brother’s coffin, and yes, he was a die-hard fan, which means I kinda *have* to finally watch the show now, huh.”
The grieving woman thanked everyone who has responded and mourned her brother alongside them.
“I know my brother included his joke requirements in the will to make sure we had a reason to smile even while we said goodbye. He’d love that it’s reaching so many and that fans of bands he loved are seeing this.”

Kyndall Taylor:
“So sorry for your loss. But also, this is so punk rock and I love it. A dear friend of mine passed away almost three years ago from cancer, and he had family and friends build him a coffin and line it with purple velvet. It was also so punk rock.”
