This mausoleum is located in Graceland Cemetery. There isn't much information here other than the name at top "John M. Kranz" and the names and dates of family members. The mausoleum is unusual and is flat with three chambers.... almost looks like a garage.
Unfortunately, the Wikipedia article (visit link) which lists the many prominent people buried in Graceland does not have a Kranz listed.
The cemetery's website (visit link) also draws attention to some of it's more prominent burials...but no Kranz.
An internet search only revealas that John M. Kranz was a prominent Chicago candy maker in the late 1800s.
