Today is John D. Rockefeller's birthday. This is his tomb in Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland back in May, not sure why people leave coins, must be a new thing, never saw that in the 70's and 80's.
Also worthy of note is Laura Spelman, Rockefeller's wife, Spelman College in Georgia is named for her. Both the Rockefeller and Spelman families were involved in the abolitionist movement.
