Sejak dia masih kecil duduk di kursi belakang mobil keluarganya di Harlem Avenue, Jimmy Sullivan penasaran dengan kuburan yang ditinggalkan.
Dia bertanya kepada ayahnya, Michael Sullivan, tentang hal itu.
“Saat dia bilang itu kuburan, saya terkejut,” kata Jimmy. “Semua kuburan yang pernah saya lihat sebelumnya bagus. Mereka dipelihara. Ada banyak nisan.
“Jadi, sungguh mengejutkan saya bahwa pada awalnya ada kuburan di sini. Itu tidak memiliki papan nama apa pun. Tidak ada pintu masuk yang bagus.”
Bertahun-tahun kemudian, mahasiswa tahun kedua Sandburg masih terpesona dengan tempat di Harlem AVenue dan 153rd Street yang dikenal sebagai Pemakaman Metodis Jerman Kuno.
Sangat mudah untuk melewati properti tanpa mengetahui bahwa itu adalah kuburan dan rumah bagi beberapa sejarah Orland Park. Dan mereka yang mengetahui bahwa itu adalah kuburan mungkin akan menggelengkan kepala karena kondisinya yang rusak.
Sullivan akan berusaha mendapatkan peringkat Eagle Scout dengan membersihkan tempat tersebut dan menjadikannya tempat yang menarik untuk dikunjungi orang.
Kecuali staf desa Orland Park yang memotong rumput, Sullivan mengatakan lansekap terakhir dilakukan di properti tersebut pada tahun 1970an. Batu nisan tersebut kuno dan terakhir ditempatkan pada tahun 1917.
“Ada banyak pekerjaan yang ingin saya lakukan di pemakaman ini,” kata Sullivan. “Salah satu hal utama adalah menghilangkan pertumbuhan berlebih. Mungkin ada batu nisan yang terkubur di bawah semak-semak. Ada pohon mati. Ada beberapa batu yang tidak mungkin Anda capai.
“Ada beberapa kuburan yang bahkan tidak bisa Anda lihat karena datar. Saya ingin membuat semua kuburan dapat diakses.”
Ia juga ingin menambah jalan menuju pintu masuk, menambahkan papan petunjuk yang bisa dilihat orang dari Harlem, dan menambahkan papan tanda sejarah di dalam kuburan.
Sullivan telah mengumpulkan dana untuk proyek tersebut dan mencari perusahaan arborist untuk menebang pohon-pohon besar yang mati, bersama dengan sukarelawan untuk pembersihan. Sejauh ini, dia telah mengumpulkan hampir $10.000 di halaman gofundme-nya dan sedang mencari $5.000 lebih.
Anggota Orland Park Troop 318 ini juga bekerja keras untuk mencari tahu nama properti tersebut, dan siapa pemiliknya. Kemudian dia harus melewati beberapa birokrasi untuk memulai proyek ini.
Dan itu belum termasuk semua penelitian yang dilakukannya untuk mencari siapa yang terkubur di sana. Dengan bantuan sejarawan daerah Brad Bettenhausen dan Libby Paulson, ia menemukan walikota kedua Orland Park, Carl Burkhardt, dimakamkan di sana bersama istrinya, Louisa. Louisa meninggal pada tahun 1917 dan merupakan orang terakhir yang dimakamkan di sana.
“Saya masih meneliti hal ini, tapi ada kemungkinan Carl adalah veteran Perang Saudara,” kata Sullivan. “Sangat sulit menemukan catatan-catatan itu.”
Michael Sullivan, seorang arsitek yang membantu rencana awal proyek ini, bangga dengan putranya yang menangani proyek sebesar ini.
“Saya bilang wow itu proyek besar,'' kata Michael. “Tetapi mengetahui Jimmy, jika ada orang yang mau mengambil tindakan, dia bisa melakukannya. Dia telah melakukan pekerjaan perencanaan yang luar biasa.”
Rencananya akan ditutup dengan grand opening pada bulan April agar ia bisa mendapatkan status Elang.
Tapi dia tidak akan terburu-buru. Dia ingin melakukan segalanya dengan benar.
“Saya punya waktu hingga saya berusia 18 tahun untuk mendapatkannya dan saya akan berusia 16 tahun jadi saya tidak terburu-buru,” katanya.
Selain proyek ini, Sullivan adalah anggota Sandburg Marching Band dan memulai tahun liburnya dengan cara yang menyenangkan saat band tersebut berbaris dalam Parade Hari Tahun Baru di London, yang oleh penyelenggara disebut sebagai “acara terbesar di kota terbesar di dunia. .”
Sullivan bersenang-senang di acara tersebut.
“Sungguh gila bagi saya betapa bahagianya mereka melihat kami,” katanya.
