[78-L] Invasion of the Body Snatchers [was Billy Murray Tribute?!^]

[martha]

 I've been to Irving Berlin's (both his expected and his actual) , George M. 
Cohan's, Victor Herbert's, Sousa's, even Louis Tiffany's - and gradually 
came to see that a grave is not a good place to realize a person's 
greatness.   I'd rather see a monument at a birthplace, a long-time home, or 
a place where some great deed was done.   Burial sites are really for the 
family's memories and comfort.
