10. Strange coincidence for me...
Edited on Mon Oct-10-05 01:17 PM by PlanetBev
I am heading for Chicago this Friday for the very first time. Besides eating some really good food and meeting long lost cousins, I plan to visit Waldheim cemetary to see my grandparents graves and attending my uncles headstone unveiling. I'm going to try to find Mr. Heller's grave and pay my respects.

11. Sorry we're just now learning about this interesting man...
I'm sure he had plenty of acerbic things to say before he departed this world.

May you Rest in Peace, Sir.
