Requiescat in pace

Posted by: quincy on 21 February 2004

Some years ago I threw 2 cents on the grave of Buffalo Bill Cody in the hills above the Coors Brewery in Golden, CO and called him a bastard.

I have visited some famous resting places since then : WB Yeats in Drumcliffe Churchyard, County Sligo, JFK in Arlington, Saint Patrick in Downpatrick, County Down, Jim Morrison, Marcel Proust, Oscar Wilde et al in Paris. Does anyone else share my interest?
Attached is a pic of Oscar's headstone.

I've paid my respects to EAP at Graceland, and to Marilyn Monroe in Westwood (IIRC). But the most moving to me are old village graveyards honouring the countless young dead of the Great War.
