Country music singer Jimmy Dean, who passed away on Sunday, will be buried in a $350,000 piano-shaped granite mausoleum.
He purchased the 9-and-a-half-foot long tomb located near the banks of the James River years ago.
The mausoleum is a reference to his 1961 hit Big Bad John. The epitaph will read, “Here lies one hell of a man.”
The funeral is set for Monday at the Grove Avenue Baptist Church in Richmond, Virginia.
