I took the liberty of making Walter Cronkite a honorary member of MHS 61.

  While walking through Mount Moriah Cemetery in Kansas City I had never seen anything placed on his grave. I decided to change that.  The week before Memorial Day, I left one of our classmate flags on the grave.

This is a wide view of the grave which is in the center of the picture. Everyone in our generation and the prior one knew him as he was in our living room five nights a week. I think the "You Are There" series really brought history alive for many people.

I took this picture off the internet as it's more legible. He must have chosen this site as his wife Betsy passed away almost five years earlier. RP
