A church maintenance worker left a note attached to a receipt in the office for the church secretary. The note read: "Van Battery Dead." The secretary, not realizing that the note was referring to an automobile battery, included this announcement in the church bulletin: "The Church was saddened to hear of the passing of Van Battery. Our condolences go out to the whole Battery family."
