Default Death Notice

Marie, in the Obituary section on the newspaper office, answers the phone.
"Obituary" Marie says in a professional voice.
"Dis is Charmaine Boudreaux, I need to put in one of dose death notices" the telephone voice says.
"Okay, what would you like it to say?" asks Marie.
"Say, Boudreaux died, funeral Sunday." Charmaine replies.
"I am so sorry, Mr. Boudreaux was a fine man. What else should it say?" Marie asks.
"Dat's all" answers Charmaine.
"Mrs. Boudreaux there is no charge for this notice, you can say as much as you like. Are you sure there isn't anything else you would like to add?" Marie asks.
After a moment of silent consideration, Charmaine says, "Okay, add Fishing Boat for Sale!"
