The first person to be interred there was Geoffrey Chaucer, whose burial in the abbey owed more to his position as Clerk of Works of the Palace of Westminster than to his fame as a writer.
William Shakespeare was not buried there but a memorial to him is in Poets' Corner. Shakespeare is buried in the chancel of Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Regretfully Mike with that atrocious piece, I doubt your even get buried contained in the close by dogs's abode. Westminster is reserved for traditional Poets. You aint were given class, in basic terms sic.
