The Forest Lawn Cemetery, Long Beach, California, has a beautiful mausoleum building containing many marble tombs. the building is of Spanish Mediterranean architecture with marble and stained glass throughout. I discovered the tomb while visiting my mother's resting place and thought that it might be of interest to some of our Cherokee cousins.
