Finally, A Funeral for Poe


Edgar Allan Poe died a quiet death in 1849. No large funeral, no loving obituaries in the local paper. In recognition of the 200th anniversary of his birth, Baltimore is giving Mr. Poe his due. His funeral is Sunday, October 11th at 12:30 p.m. Oh, wait. It will be repeated at 4:30 p.m. Click here to read about it in the Washington Post. Then, to learn details that would surely make Poe proud, check out the website poebicentennial.com.
