- Living St. Louis producer Jim Kirchherr visits Bellefontaine Cemetery with Carol Ferring Sherpley, author of Movers and Shakers, Scalawags and Suffragettes: Tales From Bellefontaine Cemetery. They visit some of the famous tombs and monuments, including the William Clark obelisk, the Wainwright mausoleum designed by Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, and the Adolphus Busch tomb. They pair also explore some of the more off the beaten path grave sites and discuss the stories that made these residents of Bellefontaine either famous or infamous.
Why can’t this be a wonderful history of many in all ages to know. Life is precious
Love ❤️ love ❤️ much
Mrs. Sherpley is very sharp and well spoken. As someone who absolutely loves history, I truly appreciate the work she has done and those who came before her. St. Louis is so rich in history.
In my opinion one of the most interesting graves is that of Sarah Water who died in 1913. To find her go to the Collins family mausoleum, park and then walk about 75 towards Calvary Ave. She is a life sized metal figure that has turned green. She is laid out as if on her death bed. She has period clothes on and little pointed shoes. Really beautiful !
Excellent...love hearing about the people and their lives
Wow beautiful
This cemetery looks very interesting . I am looking forward to visiting one day . I especially want to visit the grave of Rush Limbaugh.
Me too, I truly loved Rush
I drove over, from Indianapolis, to see Rush. I placed a microphone at the base of his headstone. Surprisingly, I was brought to tears. He was a giant of a man, an American Patriot - perhaps the last, as the Country slips further into the Biden abyss. The rest of the cemetery is amazing too...I spent hours looking around...it was a very worthwhile journey. WARNING: The surrounding area is violently unhinged. Stupidly, I stopped off to get gas, (because it was cheap) one exit east and was amazed I got out alive...and I'm not exaggerating.
@@TroyInIndy we are glad you made it out alive. God bless you friend. We all miss Rush tremendously. I often think to myself what would Rush think about any of these terrible things happening to our country and citizens? We have an idea of what he'd say but hearing it from the Golden EIB Mic would make it easier to understand.
I was here today and it is a fantastic place to visit. It is beautifully kept and it is a wonderful honor to have in St.Louis. Some of the mausoleums have beautiful examples of Tiffany art glass. After you visit go across the street to Calvary cemetery which is also fantastic.
Very entertaining and interesting. Thank you.
I am not much on visiting cemeteries but I think it would be fantastic to take a tour with the nice lady in this video…
Cool!
Very interesting I have friends and family buried there as well.
They must organizations in counties at least every year go and CHECK every things !!!
Bellefontaine [BELL-fon-TAYNE]: historic cemetery in north St. Louis
Bellefontaine Neighbors [bell-FOUNT-ten NAY-burrs]: north St. Louis County suburb
Hollywood Graveyard goes to the gravesite of William S.Burroughs.Tony has spoken.
Why are there no grave sites from 15 th and 16th century?
....and now....RUSH is there in this cemetary.....
We better take care about people who is in Life Too !!!!
And to think all of north St. Louis is irradiated from the waste produced by Mallinckrodt and the Manhattan Project
Rush Limbaugh, The Greatest of All Time, is now in this cemetery. But we all know, his spirit is now broadcasting to the angels.
Instead show the graves in detail they show themselves. I don’t care about them. Ridiculous. Selfishness.
this was very good...is there one on Calvary...?
