I believe the other cemetary famous around chicago is Ressurection Cemetary. Known far and wide as the birthplace of "Ressurection Mary, aka The Vanishing Hitchhiker"

Yeah, Byron, Resurrection Cemetery is the most well-known in the Chicagoland area, especially because of Resurrection Mary (Mary Bregovy in life)wh oallegedly still walks along Archer Avenue every night, back to the cemetery.

Good evening Byron, Can you tell me where you found out about people having their picnics on special days on the grave of their family? I read it somewhere, but cannot find anything anymore, except your little notation. I think it is a very nice idea, especially since our cemeteries for the most part are so well kept with beautiful markers, flowers and trees. It is a very good therapy
as well. I would like to revive the custom!! We have done it, friends have joined us and we feel
very good after the experience. So far we have limited ours to cake and wine and shared our memories of the person who just died 4 months ago.....
