Famous Endings Museum is considered to be one of the largest known collections of its kind – with over 1,500 pieces of memorabilia on display!

That event sparked John’s interest in famous funerals and so began his collection.
Some highlights of his collection includes Abraham Lincoln, Princess Diana, Michael Jackson, Phil Hartman, Dave Thomas, Pat Tillman, Vince Lombardi and more.
