My daughter was accepted into a class trip to Paris last year. While on a tour of the Père Lachaise Cemetery, she made it a point to visit the gravesite of James Douglas Morrison (8 December 1943 – 3 July 1971) – otherwise known as Jim Morrison. While no one that I know of – myself included – requested this photo, my daughter waited until a crowd had floated away to snap this shot. It turns out that my daughter happens to like Morrison’s music. Wow. My daughter has good taste (and it doesn’t surprise me).
According to Wikipedia, the Greek inscription on Morrison’s stone means, “true to his own spirit.”
