“James Dean's resting place”

Park Cemetery is just your common country cemetery. Except for one thing: James Dean is buried here. His gravesite is easy to find as it is always marked with trinkets people leave behind. Kiss marks pepper the tombstone as well as stacks of cigarettes and coins from around the world. Stop by and pay your respects. *Over the years the headstone has been replaced due to people chipping off pieces of it. Everyone asks you respect both Dean and his family by not damaging the gravesite.*

Dean's gravesite is easy to find right inside the gate. There have been several things vandalized and stolen here over the years so please report any suspicious activity. A humble headstone for an American legend.

A simple cemetery. I sadly have friends in this cemetery. James Dean's headstone is easy to find. Just up the road from this location is where James Dean spent his youth. The Winslow Farm.
