Off to See Where the Famous Are Buried

Posted by lenleatherwood on

Today my cousin, his wife and I went to Westwood Village Memorial Park at 1218 Glendon Avenue in Westwood to see the cemetery where many Hollywood stars are buried. The most famous is Marilyn Monroe. Below are tombstones of a few people who are familiar to most of us. It’s a great small cemetery directly behind the Westwood Public Library. It takes a little effort to find it, but it is well worth a visit if you are a fan of movie and tv stars.  These are just a fraction of the stars who are buried there.  Here is a link to the site that covers everyone: http://www.seeing-stars.com/Buried2/PierceBros3.shtml
