'He's God's problem now:' Obit for ex-Marine raising eyebrows

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A Raleigh family is trying to use a little humor to get through loss of a loved one.

The obituary for Douglas Allen Cook this week caught our eye. The 64-year-old passed away April 24.

The obituary says Cook spent 20 years in the Marine Corps and 23 years as a corrections officer at Raleigh's Central Prison.

Under that, it says "He's God's problem now."
