    Should also mention that William Haines went on to become one of the great interior designers in Hollywood.

      Didn’t know that, knew he was openly gay and had to quit acting, didn’t know he chose love. Thanks for this! Video is great!

      Yes! I had heard it in another vlog! The Stars.hired him to decorate their homes! They said that he was magnificent and his work was by word of mouth! He got wealthy off of his referrals alone!

    There should be an award for people like you, who do this sort of commentary. Your voice, your background music and your dedication, are very much admired.
    So far, I have heard no one even come close to your style, that do this sort of Tribute.

    This is a re-upload. A few errors that I couldn’t let slide slipped through the cracks in the original version. In the age of disinformation I am loathe to add to the noise, so I hope you’ll have patience if from time to time a video is re-uploaded in the name of accuracy. And besides, it gives you a good excuse to enjoy it again :) Thanks all you eagle-eyed viewers, for keeping me honest.

    My Uncle's favorite actor was Charles Bickford. Leo Carrillo's family has roots in California going back over 200 years. Visited this cemetery during a storm back in the 70's. We went in after we saw a tree fall from the wind while driving by. Enjoyed this tour!

      @eyestoenvy 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Jesse Maddux - I so agree! And not having their names placed on them as in the case of “Audra Lindley” (Mrs Roper/Three’s Company) ....

    • @nicfewer8393
      @nicfewer8393 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes, Doug McClure of The Virginian has one , his co-star Charles Bickford has not, perhaps because he was estranged from his family at the time of his death. He didn't mention his former wife or two children in his 1965 autobiography.

    • @NightCalls001
      @NightCalls001 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@nicfewer8393 I’m guessing some don’t want a marker. I didn’t know Charles Bickford was estranged from his family. Sad.

    • @Chutney1luv
      @Chutney1luv 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Jesse, the age of the grave may determine how up to date the headstones were! Probably no family to get him a proper readable stone!🙄

    • @jimtownsend7899
      @jimtownsend7899 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I don't know, Jesse. In my case, once my wife and I are gone, nobody will visit us. Our kids and grandkids just aren't interested in going to cemeteries. I sometimes question the need for a plaque, as we will be cremated and placed above ground, per my wife's wishes. As I am wont to say on occasions, "A hundred years from now, nobody's gonna know the difference."
