Lonely Planet review for Pierce Bros. Westwood Memorial Park

Half the challenge is finding this postage stamp–sized cemetery. Tucked behind a commercial building, celebrity-filled Westwood Memorial seems the current Hyde Lounge of the postlife set. Truman Capote, Dean Martin and Marilyn Monroe – see the lipstick prints – crowd sanctuaries near the entrance while headstones for rabble-rousers like Rodney ‘There goes the neighborhood’ Dangerfield keep ‘em chuckling in back.
