G'day f_minor

I find today's conversation quite touching. If I should ever visit Canada (definetly one day) I still don't know if I should visit his grave, but if I do, I'll bring along a bottle of Poland water and pay hommage. 

You know, the Internet is a very loony place. There are actually several websites out there that are dedicated to grave locations and tombstones of famous people/ celebrities, whether one finds that funny or just morbid (or both), is up to you. In any case, here is the entry on GG from findagrave.com:

How come there aren't any flowers ????

Hello F_Minors 
According to the biographies, GG's attorney,S. Posen, designed the gravestone.

Katherine (also sweltering in Chicago)

PS: enter the Mount Pleasant cemetery on Bayview Street (where you can park) and stay on course a little to the right, section 38, No. 1050

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?GRid=2128&page=gr

gives some pictures of the grave site as well.

  I have checked and in fact it is true that the musical notes on his stone are the first 3 bars of the Goldberg.  What threw me off is that there don't appear to be any ornamentations in the music, so it confused me.  GG and Goldberg are wedded forever in stone.  Nice effect.
