SPRINGFIELD, Ore. A Springfield man with colon cancer who has been told he has just months to live is selling advertising space on his urn.
Aaron Jamison told KVAL-TV he hopes to raise $800 to help his wife Kristin pay for the cost of his cremation.
One friend, restaurant owner Dustin Remington, has already paid $100 for an ad. Jamison plans to hand-paint the ad on his urn.

PORTLAND, Ore. - A dying Oregon comedian's last words will be written on his cremation urns - and the message will be sponsored by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
The animal rights group has paid $200 to place ads blasting KFC and dog breeders on the urns that will hold the remains of Aaron Jamison, who is dying of colon cancer.

Springfield man offered the ad space earlier this month so his wife wouldn't be left with funeral costs.
Since then, the $800 cremation cost has been covered, and donations have helped pay some of Jamison's medical bills.
One of the PETA ads will say: "I've Kicked the Bucket - Have you? Boycott KFC." The other reads: "People who Buy Purebred Dogs Really Burn Me Up. Always Adopt."
