    Died at Sea, Lost at Sea or Buried at Sea; these words inscribed on a grave marker tell us there is some special story or event associated with that individual’s connection to the sea. Laurel Hill has many examples that illustrate this phenomenon. Led by Dr. J. Joseph Edgette, this tour will delve into and expose the circumstances that lie beneath the grave. A pilot shot down during war, the victim of a shark attack, those who did not survive Titanic’s foundering, and other tales from the depths of Davey Jones’ locker will be included.
