Description
Bob Hope Memorial
Dolores Hope chose San Fernando Mission Cemetery as her husband's final resting place when he passed away in 2003. The unimposing burial ground in the northeast San Fernando Valley community of Mission Hills reflected her desire for "simplicity and good taste," according to Bob Hope's longtime publicist Ward Grant.

There are more than just a few celebrities entombed there, including actors William Bendix, Walter Brennan, Chuck Connors, George Gobel, William Frawley and singer Ritchie Valens.
The memorial and garden is a serene place of quietness that beckons one to reflect in peace. It was in 2014 when I took this photo. I've always had the utmost of respect for the time Bob Hope and his company of entertainers took to put themselves in harms way in order to give some relief to our exhausted warriors and heroes.
