Hi Michael Jacobs,

The video states that it is a peaceful coexistence.  Full disclosure, I grew up across from a cemetery in Rowland Heights, and I never thought anything of that!

Hi Brian England - It is interesting.  The people that actually live there, don't think anything about it.

Hi Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400 - You do have to wonder why people move to Colma.  It's not a place that is high on my list. Haha

Hi Kathy Streib -

One of the people being interviewed in the clip, basically said the same thing.  Ghosts, stay where they die.  So cemeteries don't have ghosts.

The minute I read your title line, I wondered if you were going to talk about Colma. I've always thought its history to be interesting.

Hi Sheri:

I have heard of Colma but don't really know much about it...now I do. It's the perfect video for Halloween. It would certainly be an intriguing community to visit.

Must be a fairly quiet community with more dead than alive! LOL 👻 It would be a great place for charcoal rubbings of some really old gravestones.

Hi Joan Cox 

Thanks for asking about him.  They had a "trunk or treat" on Saturday at his Tae-Kwon-Do shopping Center, and last night they were in Old Town Cottonwood.  

He was going as Batman.  But that could have changed. He has a spiderman costume also! LOL!

Good afternoon Sheri,

 I was not aware of Colma and its many eternal residents. I think Endre Barath, Jr. should make a point of checking this out! So glad you poked around and resurrected this post!
