The Arizona Republic Forest Lawn is more than a memorial park, it is an LA tourism attraction, drawing 1 million visitors each year.
Some people lament the passing of the old Hollywood.
Others put it on their vacation schedules. For the old Hollywood may be dead and buried, but it's not gone. It is still there under the loamy earth of Los Angeles. You can visit Cecil B. DeMille's burial plot, Peter Lorre's crypt site, even the final resting place of Hopalong Cassidy's horse, Topper. Lest you think this too ghoulish, I should mention that there are tours and theme parks devoted to the dear departed.
