"Cream of Wheat man" gets gravestone

A Lansing, Michigan man, Jesse Lasorda, was the driving force behind the effort to get a gravestone for White--whose cemetery marker was granite post with no name listed.

But Chef White has his gravestone, one that includes on etching of the man with the famous grin.
