Kiss fan has full Kiss themed send off

A 43-year old Kiss fan who died in a car accident on November 6 had mourners at his funeral dress in Kiss costumes.

The last line of Philip James ‘Nino’ Negri’s death notice in The Times – Picayune read “Nino would be honoured to see his friends and attendees dressed in KISS clothing and memorabilia”.

Philip had spent a small fortune of Kiss memorabilia during his lifetime right down to tattoos of the individual members.

Ever Halloween he dressed as a member of Kiss.

At Kissonline.com a statement reds, “There is no official protocol for a funeral to send off a member of the KISS Army, the fan club for the band started in the ’70s, but it’s hard to imagine doing a better job than the Negri family did for Nino”.
