I fell into grave hunting naturally, having been into doing my family genealogy since high school. I had been seeking out the graves of my ancestors, and quite by accident, stumbled onto the grave of a Hollywood celebrity nearby. In my spare time, I love researching old Los Angeles, with particular interest in architecture, and love spending time with my wife and two young-adult children.

I realize that many of the memorials I have created are for prominent personalities. I have not endeavored to write the biographies that they deserve, but I would welcome submissions to enhance the entries.

**A note on Chapel of the Pines Crematory**

I have listed many entries in the basement vault. I use a specific format to describe the shelf locations. It is implied that there is no public access to the vault. PLEASE do not send me edits to add "no public access" to the description. I will reject those requests. Thank you for understanding.
