OLIVER HARDY where he died and his gravesite

I visit one of Oliver Hardy's former homes in Beverly Hills before seeing the North Hollywood house where he died in 1957 and his gravesite at Valhalla Cemetery in Burbank.

Rip Oliver and Stan two legends of comedy that will forever be imortalized. They brought laughter and happy memories to many around the world

[@orionxtc1119]

I preferred Oliver than Stan...I no not know.... most people prefers Stan

[@patcardiff2563]

Thank you for weeding Oliver’s grave and for showing us his resting place

[@LTJones]

Thanks for watching

[@steveparker5804]

Thank you for this! I didn't know Oliver had graduated law school. So many comic geniuses were brilliant in other areas, e.g., John Cleese, who also graduated law school (and who is still with us).
Since a small boy I've loved them. Now my 7-year-old loves them. Laughs to tears. Their legacy lives on, hopefully forever.

[@LTJones]

Thank you. They were the best

[@josephconsoli4128]

Ollier was indeed a comedic genius. Not only do I adore him for all the laughter but also for being an obviously wonderful person. The same goes for Stan. It was a match made in heaven.

[@seanryan8680]

I think both buried not far each other?? Same cemetery yes just not far each other??

[@anthonyharty1732]

That is disgraceful to be left there amongst so many unknown people. With a tiny stone. Just to be forgotten. I can’t believe this is where he ended up. He was a brilliant man, one of the all time superstars of film. This is heartbreaking. 🫢

Thank you for posting this. It's fascinating! Thank you also for taking the time to clear the grass and weeds away from the marker for Oliver Hardy's grave.
I am from a generation that grew up with Laurel and Hardy on the television in the UK.
Oliver Hardy was not just a great comedian, he was a great actor. For confirmation of this you have only to watch the range of emotions that play across his face when it is captured in reaction shots in Laurel and Hardy's short films and features. He does so much whilst saying very little.

[@LTJones]

Thank you very much

[@monastario]

Dos dois, Oliver é o meu favorito. Trabalhou dobrado.

[@rivermoon6190]

@@monastarioI don’t agree. As mentioned in this video Stan not only starred in the videos but also wrote most of them and then spent hours editing them until he was fully happy with the outcome. Just because you don’t see that on the finished product doesn’t mean that Stan wasn’t working as hard as Ollie. Without Stan’s dedicated work we wouldn’t have such good films to watch today.

[@stephenwest673]

Great content again…the plaque in the wall bought by the Sons of the desert is a wonderful mark of respect for a comedy genius who, to this day has the ability to make people cry tears of laughter…LTJ…well done again and many thanks 😀

Glad you liked it, many thanks

[@SouvenirDin24]

Just seen a photo on FB from 1956, the last photo of Laurel & Hardy ever taken and following a quick google search came across your upload. As others have already said, thank you for showing us his resting place and for clearing it up. Stan and Ollie were Kings of comedy and will ALWAYS be remembered. Their laugher lives on.

Yes been to all these sites of both Stsn snd Ollie and the famous steps, The County Hospital such a great honour to see .

Thank you so much…and thank you for showing respect to Ollie by clearing his little gravestone. 🥲 Sad to see it neglected like that…he and Stan were such humble, comedic legends. I really don’t follow or care for celebrities, but these two guys definitely will always have a place in my heart.❤ RIP Ollie and Stan.❤🙏🏻🕊

I’ve been at that cemetery. It’s a very nice place. It’s very big. They do well maintain all the headstones. I go there to visit Gail Russell. The actress last night went there. The rain is covered most of the headstones because of the mud. Hopefully next time I go, that stones will be seen again.

One thing I would point out about Oliver is how extremely light he was on his feet. I remember years ago being mesmerised when he started dancing in one of his films. He literally floated in his dance steps and for a man of his stature it was incredible. I do know that he took dancing lessons as a child but he never lost the light touch in his feet, regardless of his size.

There was another famous person buried there. I don’t know if you knew that, but it was actress Gail Russell she was buried there back in 1961 at the age of 36 years old. Very sad story about her but I’ve been there I place flowers on her grave, and I also put flowers in Hardee’s grave. It’s a beautiful cemetery, maybe one day I could be buried there time will tell

[@JimSharp-u8h]

I remember watching Laurel and Hardy on Tv in Minneapolis back in the 1970s. They were on every Sunday at 10:30 am I would just laugh and laugh watching them as a preteen
I love the movie of them hauling a piano up a flight of stairs and the piano would fall down the stairs.
