The Albuquerque Journal ran a “real-life” obituary this week for Breaking Bad’s lead character, Walter White, following the series finale that closed out a saga filmed almost entirely in Albuquerque during its 8 year run. The obit read:
“White, Walker, aka “Heisenberg”, 52, of Albuquerque, died Sunday after a long battle with lung cancer, and a gunshot wound. A co-founder of Gray Matter, White was a research chemist who taught high school chemistry, and later founded a meth manufacturing empire. He is survived by h is wife, Skyler Lambert, son Walter “Flynn” Jr.; and daughter Holly. A private memorial was held by his family. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to a drug abuse prevention charity of your choice. He will be greatly missed.”
