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.

Felix Pappalardi
Felix Pappalardi and his mom Elia. Shot by his wife who served two years for criminally negligent homicide (accident). Also known for his record producing capabilities even though the rock musician grind had robbed him of much of his hearing (bass player for Mountain).
From Woodlawn Cemetery. Doesn't appear on their map. His grave is in a section called The Cliffs. It's all the way up at the next to last row from the top of the hill.RIP Felix abd Elia.

Alexander Hamilton
From Trinity Church of New York City (Wall Street). Their graveyard is divided into two lots which flank the church. Hamilton is one of the few monliths. Most of the cemetery has very thin weathered tombstones which are illegible to the human eye. Dollar dollar bill y'all.

The Dorseys
The Sentimental Gentleman
Jane New Dorsey
From Kensico. Very classy design. The side by side effect is very moving.
Although it is in plain site by the side of the road (with mini staircase) I'll still needed the phone tour to find this. Bravo Dorseys.

Washington Irving
The sole reason for my visit to Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Easy to find and well maintained, once you navigate a blind tight turn. Looks out over the Old Church Yard section.
