Driver Lance Stoner of San Francisco has been in a love affair with the Grateful Dead for so long that he has the Blues for Allah album cover tattooed on the top of his bald head and once had to be medevacked to a hospital after a Cherry Garcia ice cream overdose. So when his dispatcher asked him to go to Deadwood, South Dakota, after his latest run to pick up a load of Dead memorabilia, he jumped at the chance, not even asking what he was bringing back.
It turns out it was the mortal remains of Pete Wood, a Dead Head so dedicated that he directed in his will that his ashes be spread where lead singer Jerry Garcia’s were, which happens to be San Francisco Bay.
Producing his own ashes, courtesy of a fat blunt of Maui Wowie, Stoner said, “It was a groovy trip, man. It threw me for a loop when I saw the ashes were in a Grateful Dead commemorative beer cooler, but I’m easy. Low-stress run, baby. I’ll cop to maybe snaggin’ a spoonful for myself. Now I can fire one up with my bud Jerry and chill.”
