    Carrol O'Connor was a tremendous actor, I grew up watching All In the Family and then years later my kids watched him as Chief Gillespie on In The Heat of the Night. So tragic with his son Hugh, talented young man. May they all Rest in Peace.

    My dad back in the 60s would take us to the cemetery his first wife is buried at. While we were there he had us tend to the graves of war veterans. The respect that was taught by my dad carried over into me being interested in final resting places of the deceased. Your channel is fascinating but some of us thought maybe it was odd to be interested in this. You and others have made it clear that we are not odd after all.

    • @TheGraveyardChannel
      @TheGraveyardChannel  Před 5 lety +2

      I think it's odd when people are not interested in cemeteries :-) They're missing out on all of the art, history, stories, memories and beauty. You were lucky to have such a great dad. Thanks for sharing your personal story with us, and for tending to those graves, Hugh!

    I'm 67 years old. I remember, as a very young girl, visiting cemeteries to tidy up the graves and place flowers for my family's deceased relatives. Mom packed a lunch, and it was quite a day. I loved learning about my family in this way, and it brought on a lifelong love of genealogy and learning about where I came from. We are all a little piece of those who have passed before us. ---All of this came from eating a peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich while listening to Mom talk about what an amazing woman Grandma Alice was! Thanks for taking me places where I can't go on my own. Bless you!

      When I grew up my family in east Texas & western Louisanna had what was called " Graveyard Working". Every Sept On the 3rd weekend of the month we gathered in our family church cemetary's and had a work day on Saturday when we cleaned the cemetary and the grave stones & on Sunday we had a church service and what amounted to " Dinner on the grounds". Or in other words a large family & community reunion. It was a wonderful time of remembrance and fellowship. I wish we still had that it was a wonderful yearly getogather..

    Great job again dear chap.
    Edward was indeed Rod's partner:
    "Edward Habib, 83, of Los Angeles, died peacefully at his home surrounded by his two nieces Cynthia and Rebecca and also his great-nephew Joseph. Born in Fall River, Massachusetts, he was one of 14 siblings and served two years in the army. He moved to Los Angeles County in 1963 and was the VP of publishing and recording at Stanyon Records for 50 years. He was preceded in death by his partner, Rod McKuen. He is survived by his three cats, Buddy, Clint and Boots; several nieces, nephews, great nieces and great nephews. Memorial contributions may be made in his name to ASPCA. He will be laid to rest at 2:00pm on Friday, May 18, 2018."

You could smell the wonderful aroma miles away easily. Sebastian Cabot ate there quite often. He did not like eating by himself and my Pop asked him if I could eat my food with him and it became a friendship I will always remember.

    Actually, when Mom and later Dad died, they were cremated and put in the same niche (and urn). My husband and I purchased the niche beneath theirs and will be placed there when the time comes. The unique thing about the niches is they are covered with clear plexiglass and you can see the urns and whatever else the family wants to include. We put in some keepsakes and a couple of pictures including a wedding picture.

What you may not be aware of Allin the family is actually based on a British tv sitcom named Till death us do part starring a well known character actor Warren Mitchell, his son in this tv sitcom was played by actor Anthony Booth who was the brother of Cherie Blair wife of British ex prime minister Tony Blair.

    Back in '92, while on a trip to L.A., my lovely wife and I visited Westwood Village Cemetery. It is small, cozy and sorta hard to find. While we were wondering around looking for the place, a homeless guy waved us down and directed us in. He had seen us looking and like many others, figured that is where we were looking for. I slipped him a $10 for his help. I haven't been back out since then, but we were especially looking for Marilyn Monroe's crypt. I was reading a book about 'Secret Hollywood' back then. And the author of the book, mentioned that Marilyn's crypt, mysteriously had fresh roses delivered 2 times a week. It was thought that Joe DiMaggio was responsible for the flowers. We went first on a Monday and again that Friday and both times, the crypt had fresh roses. Also, as you can see in this film, Marilyn's crypt looks 'shiny'. That is actually oils from the hands of her fans that visit. Seems like they rub their hands all over her crypt and that is the result. Also, there were fresh lipstick kisses on the marble crypt too!. My wife freshened up her bright red lip gloss and left her lip print too! The book stated that Huge Hefner had purchased the crypt above Marilyn, so that he could spend eternity "on top of" Marilyn, but, I see that he is entombed beside of her. Thats better, I think. You didn't mention that the beautiful Natalie Wood, is buried in the ground, just feet away from Marilyn. Very interesting place to visit, if you get the chance. Thanks Graveyard Guy! I be looking for your other vids!

    I appreciate you doing these. Especially involving entertainment from the 50's-60's-70's era. Simply because you, just like me were there in those decades. To put it mildly, I find it boring when a millennial visits grave sites bragging about how they remember growing up watching re-runs of shows like the Monkees and Gilligan's Isle on the Nickelodeon channel. Yeah, as if these shows were their "coming of age" influences. Sheesh, these TV series weren't even talking to that generation.

    • @TheGraveyardChannel
      @TheGraveyardChannel  Před 5 lety

      I know what you mean, but isn't great that some of these shows and people are timeless and will be around entertaining generation after generation? When I visited the Stooges and met dads visiting the Stooges graves with their kids, it was really cool to see them being passed down from one generation to the next. We'll always know we were there first, though. Actually, with the Stooges, we were probably the 2nd generation :-) Thanks for sharing, RNRD!

      I understand what you're saying. But, unlike taking Jr to a Bob Dylan or The Rolling Stones concert it's different than a 32 year old saying how the Monkees 2 year run (66-68) on TV influenced him. The Thee Stooges made movies in the 50's-60's all the way into the 1970's so they over lapped our generation.

    Hi Mr G ! I really liked your poll. Interresting to find that not many brothers/sisters wanted to be buried near each other.
    When I had a job cleaning RVs, in the headboard I found a box of someone's ashes. When my mother & I were cleaning her back portch my mom took a box from my hand and said not to throw my step sister out. OPPS!
    Valery was very nice & kind. I'd never thought of her as a 'step' sister.
    If my mother's ashes hadn't been stolen by my other STEP- sister I would have had some of her ashes made into a ring. Maybe one day that might still happen.

    I can't believe more people don't know that Brian Keith's father Robert was once married to Peg Entwistle of the Hollywood sign fame.

    It was interesting to see Rod McKuen's memorial. As a graduate student at GWU, I attended one of his concerts at the Constitution Hall in Washington DC. That was my introduction to the contemporary American poetry.
