Stephen Crane |
 |
|
|
My favorite author is buried in Hillside, NJ barely a mile from the
Newark airport. When a business trip finished early, I took the
detour to his grave, stoppinig to say a brief 'thank-you' for
teaching me and touching my heart during the critical years of my youth. |

Emily Dickinson |
|
|
|
During our Boston / Springfield / Newport vacation in May 2000, we
took one evening and drove up to Amherst, MA, home of UMass and the
burial site of Emily Dickenson. We easily found the cemetary, but
only found the grave as the sun set. Many visitors had preceded us,
as pebbles and small stones covered the top of the headstone. |

Bob Ross |
|
|
|
I make frequent business trips to Orlando and checked find-a-grave
one trip. Bob Ross, PBS television star famous for his comforting
voice and wet-on-wet painting was listed but had no grave picture. We
scheduled a visit to his grave and took the following pictures. |

Chic Young |
|
|
|
Murat 'Chic' Young was the cartoon artist that created the famous
"Blondie" comic. Responsibility for the comic has passed
onto his son. His biography in find-a-grave was missing a picture, so
I took these. His gravesite is very peaceful, overlooking a small
lake with a fountain. |
