Jerry Orbach

Jerry and Elaine Orbach

From Trinity Uptown. Good help from their map to get to the building, after that it's scanning the mausoleum walls as usual.These are on the top of a multi floor structure which, for some reason, alternates air conditioning with no ac by floor. I had an associate scanner who will remain unnamed helping me this time so we were more efficient.

Can't believe it's been eight years already for Jerry. May you both rest in peace.

Irving Berlin

God Bless America            Blue Skies            Puttin' on the Ritz     White Christmas

From Woodlawn. Right where the map said it was. Thanks Mr. Berlin for your great songwriting.

Ed Sullivan

Sylvia and Ed Sullivan

From the mausoleums at Ferncliff. I was looking for several sites in the mausoleums and this is the first one I was able to locate. And that was thanks to a worker who pointed me the right way. Not the terrble map Ferncliff distributes.

John James Audubon

From Trinity Cemetery (Uptown). From the map you would think this is somewhere towards the eastern edge of the eastern section. But it is right at the entrance on 155th street. We (my fellow gravehunter Shela was with me) actuall stood next to it to misread the map . Veri impressive work.

Harry Chapin

From Huntington Rural Cemetery. Hard to find (calling there was useless) but at the same time right in front of you. Still getting a rockpile of love.

Tom Carvel

Tom and Agnes Carvel

From Ferncliff. Pretty tricky find. The grave is in the St. Paul section but the section has several different burial patterns. I had to find the right pattern and follow it almost all the way around the section. If you go there it is in a hedgerow on the opposite side from the mausoleum. God bless you both.

Paddy Chayefsky

From Kensico. Took me three tries to find this. Kensico's map is very stylized and it gets you in the vicinity. But without their phone-in tour I never would have found this. If you go there, utilize the phone-in resurces.

This guy won the Academy Award for best screenplay THREE times.My favorite is The Hospital (George C Scott and Diana Rigg, c'mon). RIP Mr. Chayefsky.
