(CBS) - Jimmy Dean is going to be buried in a grand piano tomb.

The singer and sausage king died Sunday at his home in Virginia, and that's where he will be laid to rest Monday in the $350,000, 9 1/2-foot long, granite piano mausoleum overlooking the James River.

On the piano, which he and his wife bought years ago, will be inscribed: "Here lies one hell of a man." That's a line from his number one hit, 'Big Bad John.'
