Begraafplaats: Berkel Enschot Roman Catholic Cemetery- St Wilibro, Noord-Brabant, NetherlandsFindAGrave-oprichter Jim Lipton neemt het grootste deel van de administratie, de bouw en het onderhoud van de site voor zijn rekening. Hij creerde de site in 1995 omdat hij geen site vond die kon bijdragen aan zijn hobby; het bezoeken van graven van beroemde mensen. Hij kwam tot de conclusie dat duizenden mensen overal ter wereld dezelfde hobby hebben. Wat puur als hobby startte ontwikkelde zich tot een levenswerk met een ware passie. De bouw en groei van FindAGrave overtroffen zijn stoutste verwachtingen en gaven hem immense voldoening. Dagelijks komen er bijdragen van duizenden medewerkers van overal ter wereld. Duizenden gebruiken de site als educatief referentie-instrument. Geliefde personen waarvan men het spoor reeds lang bijster was, kunnen nu opnieuw gelokaliseerd worden en miljoenen levens worden opnieuw innig herdacht. In welk werkgebied had Jim een van de laatste nog levende Munchkins kunnen ontmoeten of in een Hollywoods mausoleum kunnen spreken tot een publiek van liefhebbers van graven, of zijn antieke doodskist schroevendraaier kunnen verwerven(schroeft alleen naar binnen)?
