DeMille grave site museum planned
The old Hollywood Memorial Cemetery is livelier than ever. Sold and renamed "Hollywood Forever," the Home of the Dead Stars has announced bold plans to create a Cecil B. DeMille museum. A former chapel on site will be restored and will display DeMille items and show a film about his life. Mr. DeMille himself will remain interred and not viewable by the public.
