N.Y. 'Mummy' Found Year Later in Front of TV

HAMPTON BAYS, N.Y. — A man's body was found in his home more than a year after his death, with the television still on and his features preserved by dry conditions in the house, officials said.

Vincenzo Ricardo, 70, apparently died of natural causes, said Dr. Stuart Dawson, Suffolk County deputy chief medical examiner. Southampton Town police found Ricardo's body this week when they responded to a report of burst pipes.

Ricardo was found in a chair in front of the television set, as though he were watching it, Dawson said.

Note: I remember a time when we would check on our neighbors, now, folks rarely even know their neighbors. I believe the Bible says in Matthew 22:37-40:

37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’
40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
