Notes

Hal here was the first SCOTUS gravesite that I visited. I had started a new job at Tradesmen International in Macedonia OH and had already visited several presidential graves. But I had had an interest in the Court that went back to the mid 90s - and this cemetery in Highland Hills OH was close enough that I could make an after-work visit fairly easily. Justice Burton was once the mayor of Cleveland and famously was the one who brought in Elliot Ness (who had nabbed Al Capone not long previous).

Other notables buried in this cemetery include

• Donald "Cinque" DeFreeze - led the Symbionese Liberation Army, which famously kidnapped Patty Hearst in 1974.
• Albert Ayler - visionary jazz saxophonist
In the potter's field of this cemetery are the unidentified victims of the Cleveland Torso Murderer (graves are unmarked)

Interestingly, my current place of employment is literally 5 minutes away from his Justice Burton's grave.

About

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
