The topic for the September 2010 edition of the Graveyard Rabbits Carnival is: A Local Celebrity In Our Mist. This topic was submitted by Tina Micheal Ruse, who authors the blog, Campo Santo - Holy Ground. So sit back, let's see what the Rabbits have chosen!

Dorene Paul presents Sallie Reber, Popular Singer posted at Graveyard Rabbit of Sandusky Bay, saying, "Sallie Reber was a popular singer in New York and elsewhere, but after her death, she was buried in Oakland Cemetery in Sandusky, Ohio."

Carol presents The Governor and The Gravedigger posted at Reflections From the Fence, saying, "Two celebrities, a governor and a gravedigger. Both buried in the same cemetery, both celebrities in my mind."
