    When I saw the thumbnail with Sonny Bono I thought to myself, "I hope Jeff knows Betty Hutton is buried within maybe two hundred feet of Sonny." Both the Hutton sisters, Betty & Marion, were talented actresses and singers, that unfortunately, are mostly forgotten today. Marion was a singer with the Glenn Miller Orchestra, and Betty sang for Vincent Lopez's Orchestra, and garnered the nickname of, "the Screamer," for her amazing energetic vocal delivery. In her later years Betty Hutton regained some of her popularity on TV, but producers and fans seemed only interested in having her perform songs she popularized in the '40's and '50's, that she couldn't deliver with the physicality she did as a teenager. That was a disservice to everyone. Anyhow, thank you for including her in this video. I wonder how many people drive by on the I-10 without realizing how many dozens of famous people are buried in this little cemetery?

      In 1967 Phil Harris's marriage was on the rocks. He met a girl in Nashville and arranged for her to work at a nearby dentist's office so she would be close to his house in the Thunderbird Country Club. Alice found out about it in 1970 became very jealous and worked hard at a reconciliation. Phil & Alice got back together for the sake of their family but Phil never gave Shirley up.

    Well done, Jeff. I wouldn't have known you were battling with that lovely voice of yours. You can come and read the UK telephone book to me any time. Regarding Sinatra and "stars" in general: Death is a great leveller, as you will know. By and large, it is royalty who get to be with their own when they die, and sometimes infants get buried with infants in those cemeteries that have such a dedicated area.
    I loved the Thin Man films, especially sweet Astor, the dog. It's sad that black and white films are so rarely shown these days. Films like Rebecca, Arsenic and Old Lace, The Shop Around the Corner, Wuthering Heights and many other fabulous black and white films, which included great actors of their day, with equally good performances, are lost to the generations today. Just yours and mine left, Jeff. Anyway, I loved The Thin Man series and never missed one.
    Thank you for taking the time and doing the legwork on our behalf, Jeff! I feel quite worn out! 😂

      Wow, I should probably pin your comment to the top. Thank you so much for your compliments about my voice and my work. I don’t think there’s anything special about my voice, but a lot of folks have mentioned they like it. I guess none of us like our own voices, or at least hearing them.
      So happy to hear that. I have a big fan over in the UK. As far as the old movies, some of them are definitely treasures. I think a lot of folks just assume that if it’s black-and-white, then it’s safe boring or bad movie. When I see what Hollywood is producing With the over-the-top computer generated graphics and unbelievable scenes of destruction I am immediately turned off. Give me a good drama or a slow movie with a good plot any day.
      I hope you continue to love our program! Blessings to you !

    Thank you for another excellent visit Jeff. When visiting the burial sites of famous people I'm always reminded that in the end most will have a simple marker. Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland, OH, is the final resting place of John D. Rockefeller, at one time the richest man in the world. Yet he has a simple marker in the family plot. Also buried at Lake View are President James Garfield, Alan Freed, and Eliot Ness, to name a few.

    Sinatra was one of the best singers imo. I grew up listening to him because he was a fav of my mom. I loved the music and continued to be a fan as an adult til the day he died. ❤

    My first time watching a video of yours and must say it is the BEST of this genre. Excellently produced, photographed, and narrated full of just the right amount of entertaining and educational history. The insertion of film clips is a perfect addition to the description and storyline of these wonderful people allowing one context to place a face with a name. Thank You for your hard work in creating a lasting remembrance for us all to enjoy. God bless you! ✝️

    I've seen a lot of your videos and I am shocked at how many famous people you spoke to, received autographs, had conversations with and so on. What you did then compared to nowadays are scarce and extremely rare. Memories you'll never forget.

    I met Phil Harris and his wife Alice in 1994 when he came for a tour at the Henry Ford estate where I worked. Phil Harris already had a slight case of dementia. His wife told me at the time, but he was a very nice man and so was his wife. Sunny Bono's Parents were from Grosse Point, Michigan and her daughter snd granddaughter. She was a student at the University of Michigan Dearborn, where I worked at the Henry Ford estate. I had the privilege of meeting his mother several times along with Sonny's sister and his grandniece, along with his dad, who was a very nice man. His mom was always very nice when I talked to her and his whole family was just sweet people.

      Sarah didn’t get out of the car on this one because cemeteries really aren’t her thing for the most part. We started out at the mausoleum and there was no place for her to sit down so she stayed in the car and unfortunately it was a little too warm for her so I don’t think she was feeling great that day.
