Hi Dave, Another enjoyable video to the Stars. Mother Jefferson, Played by Ms. Zara Cully she used to cracked me up. A pure genius comedian. Chico Marx, was a tremendous talented Piano player, Although he had a problem with his Gambling. It was his Brother, Groucho who took over his Business affairs, Because he was going broke. My Mother favorite Stooge is Larry. My Sister's Curly, And Mine was Moe. Good to see Singer, Mr. Nat King Cole, and His Wife, Ms. Maria. Mr. George Burns lived to be 100, Along with his wife Ms. Gracie. And Ms. Mary Wells, My favorites songs were, You beat me to the punch, And What's two can easily do, So hard to be loved by one. Dave, I'm so sorry about the Car Crash, BE careful out there, Have a Great Weekend!

Thanks for the tour! Somebody said wish they were longer - I hate when they end! Funny thing, when my husband and I visited there I didn’t think you could go past the chain links so didn’t visit those people . Now I know … if I ever make it back there. Another good one! 👍

Thanks, Cheryl, always good to hear from you. Utube suggests to make them 10-12 mins. Sometimes I go longer. I'm very happy with the way the channel is finally picking up. Starting to make gas and hotel $$ for my trips! Maybe I'll see you guys around there someday.

Greetings Dave. I always enjoy these grave tours. Nat Cole was such a classy guy and in my opinion the best vocalist ever. I’d pick him over Sinatra even. Really sorry to hear about your car, that’s awful. Here’s a toast to a great 2024 to you and anyone else who’s reading this. Salute!

Great job on the video Dave. I wonder how other you-tubers play snippets of audio and video clips and you can’t? Maybe they pay an extra fee or something.

@famousgraveswithdiamonddave 5 ай бұрын

I'm looking into it. I almost always have clips in the vids and end up having to take out some of them when I do a final run-through. Just doubles the edit time.

Bob Cobb (and, hence, the Brown Derby restaurant) also gave us the Shirley Temple cocktail (the only "drink" of which I'm personally able ever to consume). Film actress/singer Dorothy Dandridge, as well as tough-guy film actor and professional wrestler Mike Mazurki, are nearby to Zara Cully. Disney studio film/TV composer Paul Smith rests close to Mary Wells. Barbara Ruick, film/TV actress and singer, and the first wife of film composer John Williams, is not too far from Billy Barty. And silent screen matinee idol Francis X. Bushman is interred @ the far south-end of the lower floor.

I suppose repairs have to be done after an earthquake that out of the Lytle Creek area of California where it shook my house in San Bernardino. Alan Ladd did at 50 as he was a heavy drinker and partier too which led to his death. Alan Ladd would never do a movie with John Wayne as he was only five feet, six inches tall and John Wayne was six feet, four inches tall, Alan Ladd would dwarfed to John Wayne. Natalie Cole couldn’t be put next to her parents as there was no room next to them and I guess her family didn’t want to have her cremated. Larry Fine next to his wife and son there too. Moe had to pay for his funeral as he and his family had no money for that as Larry spent most his money early and never kept any for himself or his family to have a home. Billy Barty was a character type of an actor who did a lot even for Sid and Marty Kroft as he was Sigmund the Sea Monster. That was in the era of the 70’s.
