To Parley's left is buried his wife of 54 years, Ernestine Clarke Baer. Their resting place is Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills. I visit them every time I also pay respects to my boss, Clyde Beatty and his wife, Jane.

This Forest Lawn is to the South of, and half a mile East of Warner Bros. Studios. From most of the cemetery,looking a little Northeast, you can see the big sign for Disney's ANIMATION studios.

With effort, you can get lists online of famous names buried here, and at the one in Glendale, and even find some film tours on YouTube. But don't waste your time asking the cemetery staff where anyone is. They refuse all requests, citing family privacy concerns. You do the best you can looking around by yourself, and there are 1000s of your favorites to find. If this is your thing, don't miss Hollywood Forever Cemetery, in the same massive city block with Paramount Studios. This is the only one which will give you maps and a guided tour.
