Obituary

Emmit Larsen
1906-2011

Emmit died doing what he loved: arguing with a squirrel on the roof. The founding member of the political activist group S.F.M. (Separation of Feathers & Milk) and protest group GO-FUMS (Get Out From Under My Sink), he also formed the air drumming trio Bologna Face in 1974 and the group played their final show at the 1981 Shovel at the Shore benefit to raise awareness of snow. 

Emmit is survived by a photograph of his goldfish, Marty. 

Funeral services are set for October 1 at 4:30 p.m., then it's off to Padre's for quarter beer night
