A northeast Ohio farmer who died of cancer has been laid to rest with the help of some of the llamas he raised on his farm.
Two of Terry McCrone's llamas made up an honor guard at his funeral Friday at Perry Christian Church. Four others from a statewide drill team joined them, wearing purple ribbons as they lined up outside the church. The llamas also escorted a hearse to Perry Cemetery.
