Sheen Toasts Dead Man’s Ashes During Show

Charlie Sheen Wendy Newman’s husband of 19 years died of a heart attack and the only way she survived this difficult time was by watching DVDs of “Two and a Half Men.” When she learned that Sheen was coming to Toronto, her home town, she got tickets and asked Sheen via a Facebook message to raise a glass in honor of her husband at the show.

At the end of the show, Sheen called Newman to the stage. She was dressed in all black and carried a vessel of her husband’s ashes. Sheen toasted the man’s ashes with a glass of non-alcoholic cider and Newman gave a brief eulogy.  The show then ended abruptly, leaving the audience confused.
