Indiana Farmer Honors Princess Leia Of 'Star Wars' Fame

DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm David Greene. In "Star Wars," characters returned as visions.

(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "STAR WARS: EPISODE V - THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK")

ALEC GUINNESS: (As Obi-Wan Kenobi) Luke.

MARK HAMILL: (As Luke Skywalker) Ben?

GREENE: Well, don't be alarmed if you're flying over Indiana and get a vision of Princess Leia. Farmer Jeremy Goebel designed a corn maze with the outline of Leah's face and her distinctive hair. He said it's a tribute to Carrie Fisher, the late actress who died last year along with her mom, Debbie Reynolds. The Force is strong in that family. It's MORNING EDITION.
