      Arthur, you just ventured into my neck of the woods! I have many family members buried at Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland. I have also been to Elizabeth Short's grave which is there. In fact, the last time we were there, we heard some really strange noises. How I wished you had gone right next door to the Chapel of the Chimes! That's where my own future final resting place is. My parents are there. It's a beautiful, Gothic looking columbarium that was designed by Julia Morgan whose best work was Hearst Castle. Also, My great-grandmother was one of those graves evicted out of San Francisco and moved to Olivet Cemetery. I really enjoyed this video!

Anyway I was headed up to my room (don't remember the hotel) the door of the elevator opened and there he was (with couple of body guards). I'm not a baseball fan but certainly recognized him. Didn't say anything to him as I thought it would be unfair considering we were prisoners in an elevator. But I did think of MM.

    Arthur, I’ve really enjoyed your videos over the years. I just wanted to give you a little info on David Packard. He donated the money to build the current Children’s Hospital at Stanford building in memory of his wife, Lucille Salter Packard. Within this hospital, the Doobie Brothers donated a theater for the entertainment of the sick children, and they would occasionally give performances to the children in that theater.
    Please continue making these videos! I look forward to them. They are a wonderful tribute to the people who have given us so much. They shouldn’t be forgotten. Thanks.

    Talking to a cemetery groundskeeper, I learned that the day of Steve Job's funeral, all the cemetery workers were replaced by Apple Employees and Security. I visit my parents' grave often and am familiar with the Oak Grove section, but , I never found fresh burials. There were other reports that Jobs was buried under a tree in the apricot orchard part of the cemetery. Too bad it wasn't an apple tree.

      He made his mark by doing things differently in life.

      If he did things the conventional way, yes, he'd be alive. But he would be living that life in utter obscurity.
      There would never have been an Apple. And you'd never have heard the name Steve Jobs.

She was my childhood and still can’t believe she is gone. RIP Shirley temple, you will always be the adorable curly hair girl.

    This isn't Hollywood, so maybe it doesn't fit here. But not all of the graves here were famous because of the entertainment business. You were very close to a infamous grave site. In The Evergreen Cemetery in Oakland is the grave with the remains of 412 people that were unclaimed from Jonestown, from the People's Temple. I am so sorry. May these people rest in peace.

      @@britishtvlover2038 They were unclaimed mostly because of cost. There was one local man who became famous for a very sad reason. All of his immediate family went to Jonestown. He lost 21 family members. He could not afford to have 21 funerals, buy 21 grave plots. They were unclaimed. This was the case of most unclaimed. Multiple family members. Survivors could not afford to bury all of them.

      Thanks for mentioning the souls from Jonestown. The cemetery is quite strange in that it's in the middle of an urban location, and the streets seem to go thru the middle of it. I grew up off Golf Links Rd and used to shop at Eastmont Mall which is very near to the cemetery. P.S.: It's also surprising he did not go to Chapel of the Chimes which is one of the most beautiful mausoleums in the world.

    Back in the 1920's, the southeast part of San Francisco was the center of the silent film industry, which is one of the reasons so many silent film stars are buried in nearby Colma.
    Another person buried in Colma is Adolph Spreckels, who was a San Francisco sugar magnate. He was the original "Sugar Daddy" because he was very wealthy and married a much younger woman.

    OUTSTANDING As Always! Respectfully done and packed with lots of background information as usual!
    Shirley Temple: I can still remember in the 1970s on Saturday or Sunday afternoon on WGN9 watching one of her many films with her talented costars like Arthur Treacher, Bill Robinson and Buddy “Barnaby Jones” Ebsen! This girl singlehandedly saved 20th Century Fox from financial ruin during the depression. Do you think they gave her free admission to any Fox film afterwards?
    Steve Jobs: Yep; watched the whole 42:21 of this episode on a Apple device!
    Joe DiMaggio: Not sure if their was anyone else as angry with Frank Sinatra and the Kennedys than Joe! Will we ever know what really happened to her?
    Abigail Folger: Remember as a child this creepy news coming out of Southern California about Sharon Tate and her friends being butchered! Not something a preteen mind can process at the time
    Joe Carcione: During am or noon newscasts, the local NBC Affiliate would air his “Green Grocer” segments. One day they announced there would be no more airings because he died!
    Ms. Weather Girl: It’s Raining Men was THE tune in the early 80s!
    The Black Dalia: Sad sad just sooooooo sad! What else can you say?
