In keeping with A Christmas Carol's blend of Christmas cheer with themes of death, I'll make this comment:

I still think it's a strange coincidence that the voice actor of this version of Scrooge...

...is buried next to this version of Scrooge.

They're literally buried side-by-side, separated just by a small hedge and two benches.

And the voice actor of this version of Scrooge is also buried in that same cemetery...

... as are Mel Tormé (composer of "The Christmas Song"), Sammy Cahn (composer of "Let It Snow!"), and Dean Martin (who recorded many Christmas songs and died on Christmas Day).

If you ever want to celebrate Christmas in a cemetery, Westwood Village Memorial Park would be a good choice.
