Brad and I paid a special visit to the grave of the funniest member of the Three Stooges 

curly Howard  (born Jerome Horwitz)

Curly, along with brother shemp,  is interred in a Jewish Cemetery on Whittier Blvd,  in an interesting section of East Los Angeles.

On curly's grave, you can see fans have spelled out 'Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk' in pennies on his grave. Another fan left 2 spoons,  all true fans would know of Curly's love for playing the spoons.   

In tribute, Brad and I left a cup of Ice, from one of our favorite shorts where Curly plays the iceman, delivering blocks of ice from a horse drawn carriage.   One of his customers lives up 5 flights of stairs and by the time Curly arrives at the top of the stairs with the ice block he finds his ice tongs now hold only an ice cube.  Pretty funny, huh?
