Oh Samantha, you and I would’ve been great friends, I just know it!! Here’s a bit about this legendary badass from her wonderful obituary:

Samantha St. Aubyn (Peluso) Swartzlander, a gifted artist and art teacher, passed away on Wednesday, October 30th, 2018. Sam had a strong passion for art, but above all, her true passion was helping others. She loved teaching her middle and high school students where she could combine the two things she loved most - art and helping others to see their potential. She was always a great listener, a great shoulder to cry on, and a wonderful person to laugh with. She was willing to help anyone at any time. She will be deeply missed by everyone who knew her.
Sam was 30 years old. She was born in New York, grew up in New Jersey, and spent her adult life in Georgia. She had a bachelor’s degree in Art and Design from LaGrange College and a master’s degree in Teaching from Georgia College.

On another website I found this about Sam too:

Sam led programs to raise Mental Health Awareness and Su***de Prevention at both Griffin High School and, more recently, Indian Creek Middle School. Many students came to her with their stories and expressed appreciation for her being there to listen. She had tremendous empathy for them because of the genuine and loving person she was —and because of her own personal struggles. Sam and all of us have suffered through the struggles resulting from the lack of understanding and good treatment options for mental health issues.

She rests at Gulf Cemetery in Santa Rosa Beach, FL.
Sam, today we remember you!! You are loved, missed, and remembered by us all now. May you rest in peace❤️🙏

Adam’s epitaph is absolutely heart breaking. There are no words to describe the pain he and his family felt. You can feel it through the plaque that tells his story. Here is a bit about Adam from his obituary:

Adam was a kind soul who touched many lives. He was an individual to the extreme, always quirky in his actions and mannerisms. He was sweet and funny and quick to give a compliment.
He was an athlete. He wrestled for Sultan High School, making it to the State finals all four years. He was voted most inspirational by his fellow track runners.
Adam participated in the Spokane Blooms day race for several years. He also played soccer, baseball, and basketball.
In his adult life he became an avid golfer, pool player, poker player, and still loved riding his BMX bike. His first love was music. He was a self taught guitarist. His music was beautiful. Adam had a need to help others. He never judged anyone and would give a stranger his last dollar or the shirt off his back.
Adam worked as a caregiver the last five years or so, taking care of his Grandfather, Vern Chittick, until he passed away a few years ago. Vern loved to listen to Adam play his guitar. Adam thought the music soothed Vern’s pain. The last two years Adam provided care to Ron Williams as well as performed grounds keeping services for Blue Boy West Golf Course. Sharon Williams and her brother, Ron, were like family to Adam; his passing will leave a huge void in their lives.
It would take me days to tell you who Adam truly was and even longer to mention all the people who loved him. He touched many hearts.

Adam is buried at Sultan Cemetery in Sultan, WA.
Today, we remember you Adam. May you rest in peace🙏❤️🕊️🕯️

Oh man poor Gerald:( heartbreak is never easy and clearly it hit Gerald hard. Here’s a bit about him from his obituary:

Gerald Edwin Klingbeil, age 72, of Green Lake, WI, passed away on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, at Oakridge Gardens Nursing Center in Menasha, WI.

Gerald was born November 27, 1942, in Montello, WI, the son of Edwin and Violet (Zabel) Klingbeil. He graduated from Montello High School. Gerald earned his cheese maker license at the age of 16 years old and worked at several cheese factories and other places of employment. He later became an electrician working at Rippin Good Cookie factory. In his later years, Gerald became a maintenance repair man in the Ripon school system and retiring after. He was a member of St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church in Princeton.

Gerald enjoyed fishing, trapping and deer hunting on and by Lake Puckaway where he was brought up. He also enjoyed stopping after church by his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Klingbeil, for her tasty coffee cake and listening to them talk. Gerald also lived with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Zabel in Fairwater in the summer months. He enjoyed life as a whole and could fix anything, except a broken heart. That is why he went away from this earth, because of a broken heart. I’ll see most of you in heaven where we can all visit and discuss old times. Thank you God for all your blessings.

Today, Gerald is buried at Trinity Lutheran Cemetery in Mecan, Wisconsin. May he rest in peace without heartbreak❤️🕯️🕊️🙏

The grave of Tiny Helen Kline is located at Inglewood Park Cemetery in Los Angeles, CA.

Tiny Kline was born Helen Deutsch in Hungary in 1891. She immigrated to the United States as a teenager in 1905 with a dance troupe and lived at the Clara de Hirsch Home for immigrant girls. She began performing as a burlesque dancer before eventually finding her way to the circus.

Performing under the name Tiny Duchée, she joined Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, where she met trick rider Otto Kreinbrink, known professionally as Otto Kline. The two married, but tragedy struck when Otto was killed while performing.

Rather than leave the circus, Tiny learned to perform the dangerous acts herself.

One of her specialties became the “aerial iron jaw” act, an incredible stunt in which she was suspended from a wire by a mouthpiece and sent gliding high above the audience.

That experience would eventually lead to the role for which she is best remembered.

In 1958, Tiny dressed as Tinker Bell and performed a 1,000-foot aerial glide over the audience during Disney Night at the Hollywood Bowl. Then, in 1961, she began flying as Tinker Bell at Disneyland, soaring from the Matterhorn toward Sleeping Beauty Castle before the nightly fireworks.

Tiny retired from performing and died in 1964 at the age of 73.

And perhaps the most beautiful ending to Tiny’s story is that she reportedly left the bulk of her estate to the Clara de Hirsch Home, the same organization that had helped give her a home when she first arrived in America nearly 60 years earlier.

Today, we remember you Helen! May you rest in peace❤️🧚‍♀️🕯️🕊️

I’ve posted many graves that show how they die but never a grave that says how they didn’t die. Now I’m curious to know what happened to Stanley. Couldn’t find anything online. At least we know it wasn’t covid! May Stanley rest in peace🙏❤️
