Grantland Rice

Famed Sportswriter of the 1920s and 30s. From Woodlawn.

To mark against your name,
He writes - not that you won or lost -
But how you played the Game."

For the sons of American Gold Star Mothers


Not a grave. From Memorial Grove in Van Cortlandt Park. Very unassuming, neat section remembering a couple of dozen members of the miltary. The most recent passing of the departed that I observed was recorded in 1950.
