An obituary for a Kansas man who died of COVID-19 is garnering attention. Dr. Marvin Farr, 81, of Scott City died Tuesday in isolation at a nursing home.
His son, Courtney Farr, wrote an obituary lamenting how his father died in a world where many of his fellow citizens refuse to wear a mask to protect one another.
His father was a farmer and a veterinarian. The obituary says the science that guided his life has been disparaged and abandoned by many of the same people who depended on his knowledge to care for their animals and to raise their food.
