It's wonderful to rise from the dead, and even better if you were never dead in the first place.。
Over the weekend, Lupita Gonzalez's mother in Shafter, California, got a bizarre call from a family member, concerned that her daughter had died. Funeral jars, featuring her daughter's face and calling for donations, had started to appear all around town. The jars included Gonzalez even though, strangely and happily enough, she had not died.。

The jars showcased Gonzalez's face, which was taken from one of her Facebook profile photos. The jars claimed that she was actually "Enriquetta Nunez," and her Mexican family was seeking donations to bring her remains back to the States.。
Gonzalez, however, was residing not in Mexico but in Bakersfield, and not dead, but living, breathing and weirded out. 。
