French Jesuit Pierre Teilhard de Chardin—theologian, mystic, scientist—once noted, “I should like to die on the day of the Resurrection.” So it happened. He died of a heart attack in New York on April 10, 1955, Easter Sunday.

His tomb is in the Jesuit cemetery on the grounds of what is now, believe it or not, the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY (originally a Jesuit seminary). His grave is indistinguishable from those of his confreres. I took the photo attached to my tweet.
