Originally, he was under a boulder that had a simple inscription "Belushi". People trampled the adjacent graves, so they took a space at the end of the row, erecting a new memorial. People leave things, like beer, and the neighbors aren't trampled. I half suspect they just removed the boulder and re-sodded it and he is in fact in the original site, now unadorned.

Scott, You mentioned Pete Duel when looking through the one death certificate book and Pete Duel is a forgotten actor from the series "Alias Smith and Jones (1971-1973). It weird to hear his name mentioned. He would be a great subject for a video on his life and death at 31 in 1971. I'm a fan of his.

@ericbryant-dz8mj Back then L. A. was very affordable, I lived in Van Nuys by the airport, and they changed the name of the area to Lake Balboa. I lived in a $300. A month apartment and got half off for collecting the rent. I was going to the landlord for a check for a repair. I was driving a 79 Ford Thunderbird. Carroll O'Connor and Patrick O'Neal Co owned a nice restaurant/pub in Beverly Hills called The Gingerbread Man. You could have a nice meal for under $10, leaving a 30% tip, and usually, Carroll would drop by to see if everything was okay. If that's living large to you, I was living large. Robert Wagners house was close to the street, I'm told things were very open in Beverly Hills until the Tate-Labianca murders in 69' when many people put up gates, got guard dogs and many men started carrying guns. When Robert left Canon, Dr his next home was much more secure.

I never forgot that, so people who do this for a living, whether for celebrities or for us "everyday" people are truly blessed by God to be in the profession of helping the grieving loved ones during such difficult times.

What a professional kind and gentle man. This was another interesting video Scott that you do so well. I had visited Westwood when myself and my family went to California. Your right when you say people do like to visit and see where Marilyn is buried. When we were in LA we went for the old Hollywood places, lunch at the Chateau Marmont , dinner and lunch at Musso's and of course a tour of the Paramount Studio. We even stayed at a 1930's Airbnb in West Hollywood. What a great time it was and I will never forget it.

Enjoyed this video. I visited the Westwood cemetery 10 years ago to visit dearly departed celebrities and a few of them I had met prior to their death with whom I had some light conversation. Thanks for this great video it brings back memories.

Ohhh, Mr. Michael's! This entire presentation is fascinating and so neatly produced. Your guest, Mike Steen, had so many interesting anecdotes about a wonderful bygone era in Hollywood. Such a respectful, humble spirit. He would be a delightful guest to enjoy a game of Spades or Hearts with. Thank you both for giving us your time and talent. 24:27 His story about Truman Capote and Joanna Carson is to die for!

If there was a checkerboard near Sabastian Cabot's grave, it probably had to with the fact his tv show was called "Checkmate"

This was an interesting interview. Mr. Steen is a gentleman the way he discussed working with various high profile people, and handling their loved one's funeral arrangements. He is a handsome man as well! Scott you are a class act in everything that you do! Thank you for your super videos! They are always very fascinating, and every time I get a chance to watch your videos, I'm always glued to my computer to listening to you! Best to you!

With all the BIG NAME people who he has helped in the sorrows of life. To be as humble as he is, to only help and provide a closing in life. Yes, without a doubt, this is his calling in life. What a great man. Thank you, I truly appreciated and enjoyed this.

My parents both wanted cremation, no service, and ashes spread on their property. My husband and I will follow suit and based on my experience with my parents, it was still a cost of $5 to 7K.

I know with Dignity, they can run $15K. I was blessed to find one that took care of my husband, that passed this last December, a cremation for about $1900. November service or anything, which is what he and I wanted/want.

Fantastic chat! What a fascinating career Mr. Steen had. One thing about LA is the historical cemeteries. Each one is super fascinating in its own right. Westwood Cemetery is near where I live; once a month I take a stroll there... love the place. Thank you Scott. Always pure joy to watch your videos. 💪❤
