—”We have a graveyard on the grounds of the Tallahassee Airport”
O’hare Field used to???
On the west end of O’Hare International Airport, at the foot of runway 9-Right, lie some 1,400 dearly departed. The 5-acre cemetery sits just south of the 10,000-foot jet runway, on the Du Page County side of the Du Page-Cook County line, near the Federal Express hangar.
The Tallahassee Airport graveyard is much smaller. They did something convoluted with the airport fence to separate it from the airport and give access to the graveyard from the highway. The graveyard and the access road are terrible shape, but still in use.
I used to live in Elk Grove Village, but haven’t been over in that area in ages. I remember the pretty little old church and the cemetery.
