In a bizarre video making rounds online, YouTuber Rosanna Pansino, who is no stranger to controversy, was seen honoring a controversial request from her late father five years after he passed away from leukemia.
On the debut episode of her podcast Ridiculous on November 17, the 39-year-old cook revealed an unusual dying wish from her father, who supposedly wanted her to grow a cannabis plant with his ashes and then smoke him.
Rosanna Pansino did just that online, lighting up a joint comprised of her dad's ashes and smoking it in for her audience. Pansino’s father, who she referred to as “Papa Pizza,” died in 2019 after battling leukemia for six years.
On December 19, 2019, Pansino paid tribute to her late father after he passed away from leukemia, writing:
“I am heartbroken. Late last night my dad passed away. He had been fighting Leukemia for over 6 years and refused to let his diagnosis stop him from living life, his way, every single day. I love you, Dad. You taught me how to be strong, and caring, and to never back down. You made me who I am today and I couldn’t be more grateful.”
