Don Knotts

[cessna421ace]

He deserves a very tall and great marker that stands out like he did. What an awesome actor. His marker should also say, "Nip it in the bud". 

[bowlchamp411]

hes sure is the shakiest gun in the west

[LordIam1]

Don has such a plaine grave marker. I wonder if this was his wish? I have seen some celebrity stones that had thier face on the stone, pictures of guitars, and some deep poem or funny saying like "I Told You I Was Sick." Here is a Find a grave picture of this stone. So close to the road, no fanfair. I guess when we go, there is no special dirt that any of us will go into. In the words of Beverly Hillbillies character Jed Clampett "Dirt is Dirt!.

[Dolphindream15]

why is it sideways

[speedy8003]

it fells like don knots could have never die

[gtc1961]

Hands down, Barney Fife was the best character in American TV history.

[jimihendrixfan2008]

Mr. Furley!!!

[nene72744]

this is so sad he was a legend.and so famous thrue all these years......and this headstone 

[Kaffyboy]

@nene72744 Roy Orbison is in the same cemetery, and he has no headstone!

[nene72744]

@Kaffyboy my dad just passed over 2 years ago,,he has no headstone either,but that dont make it rite,,,but roy orbisons family can affort 4 him a headstone

[Kaffyboy]

@nene72744 It's sad. You'd think that the estate of Roy Orbison could afford it though, after all, he was a hugely successful singer. Perhaps it's Roy's wishes he not have a headstone. The great sctor Lon Chaney is buried in Forest Lawn, Glendale, and he has no headtone either...but it is thought that this was his wish.

[DALDO1]

I kept waiting for him to pop out...now that would have been funny. Or scary.

[inkey2]

The Andy Grifith Show never would have lasted as long as it did without Don Knotts

[Boltfiger]

His plaque seems so simple. I wonder if he requested it that way.

[melk1971]

Probably not an elaborate headstone because people will try to take bits and pieces of it.

[hen8167]

i can see the grave perfectly with the way my computer sits. 

[DougMcCallister1]

I never heard anything about him dying. Damn. He deserves a big head stone.

[DougMcCallister1]

I never heard anything about him dying. Damn.

[mrshutter45]

I made a nice tribute to the show......check it out

[potlick18]

that's sad :'( he deserved better.

[mattanddi62]

A comic genius.

[MrJeffnow]

Wow this is sad from a man that was so talented and barney Fife, the all time best by far. His accomplishments should be noted much better than this. I go to a large grave yard all the time and take time to read the names the dates what they might have done and why they may have passed if younger. It really makes you think and feel.

[frtw4428]

Where is he buried? It would be nice to visit and pay respects. Since others have mentioned their favorite Don Knotts' films, here are mine: The Reluctant Astronaut (opening scenes are hilarious!), The Ghost and Mr. Chicken (title tells it all!), and the Incredible Mr. Limpett.

[DreadlockRasta21]

Are u kidding me? THIS is his grave? No lengthy engravement or anything about his life or career?? C'mon, man. The man was a god of the entertainment industry.

[JKAFinal]

@DreadlockRasta21

Dude alot of celebs have simple graves like this, shut up.

[OptionalFiend]

Such a humble tombstone for a man who gave so much joy to so many. They don't make 'em like that anymore.

[thmoorer]

That's all it needs to say, "Right, Ange?".

[RaceIsOpen]

he was very quaint, as his grave is small and humble...very nice actor

[thanhbites]

A little gave for a little guy .

[bowlchamp411]

i loved it when he did shakeist gun in the west and the principle from big bully (1996)

[dnnylee]

Always wanted to meet him,class act he was. Golden Heart he was.

[cathysloper]

Great to see, but why is it sideways??

[TrainBridge1]

No disrespect but who showed you how to use a camcorder?..now my neck hurst thanks to you!..i wanted to cuss you out but i held back!..take a camera lesson or two!

[talkingsports]

where is this, it's so small.

[wrfrock]

thats wha im sayin

[ArkFatBoy]

It's in Westwood Memorial Park, Los Angeles. The cemetery is small but filled with famous people.

[wrfrock]

why he get such a small grave ?

[dhunt1964]

I love it when Barney said " nutsy come at me yelling citizens arrest,citizens arrest

[knsdonnell]

he has made me laugh so often

[SeventhCOG]

God blessed him with a loveable quality and a lot of talent

[opietaylor100]

oops.sorry i missed and pissed on don knotts grave.

[DianeAv]

My all time favorite character of Don's is Barney.He was so awesome.

[wolfmanrick]

the ghost and mr.chicken.wow what a great movie.R-I-P.we miss you

[ElCamino0to60]

jeez youd think hed have a fancier looking marker

[ToneNinja]

That's what I thought too. He certainly deserves one.

[albiman68]

One minute and 53 seconds of a grave is a bit long. I mean what did you expect, that the stone would fly away? Seriously, Mr. Knotts was a funny man that I loved wtaching on Three's Company!

[CDPDPatrolUnit]

We miss you Barney!

[Revelation181]

Are you sure that is his real grave and not someone with the same name? If so, is that the best the family could do for the man? I mean, after all... He is a comedic legend! He deserves a bigger memorial than that little headstone...

[Smalltowngal29]

@Revelation181 I was thinking the exact same thing.

[sebastianm1]

One damn fine actor

[tiltrotor56]

Don,thank You for all the smiles,the laughs,and the fun!My name is Don,also,and Im watching You and Andy right now.Rest in Peace,old friend.

[elvisfan22]

You'd think that his stone would be differen't for some reason. Considering he was a legend and 5x emmy winner you'd imagine he would have a big stone with a bunch of stuff written all over it. Oh, well, RIP Don.

[GlamMetalChild]

we miss u Don. You make me proud to be a West Virginian!!!!

[stephaniebrugel]

Barney,We miss you!

[billywjh]

sad

[kc7fys]

Don Knotts was a comic technician. Peerless in his field. He certainly brought a lot of joviality to my childhood and early adult years. Roll on, Barney!

[Nintendogamecuberox]

what did he die of

[bachkirche]

lung cancer

[billywjh]

wow

[dthompson214]

I'll bet God hasn't quit laughing since 2006. Rest in Peace Barn.

[Critic1016]

MY dad told me how he woiuld watch this show at my age and always laugh as a family. he got me interestedin the show about 3 months before the death of Don Knotts. when i heard that he had passsed away i was pretty shocked... He was true comedian. R.I.P

[victoria641]

It makes me want to cry to see this. Don Knotts will always have a special place in my heart. I watched him along with the rest of my family when I was growing up. He made me laugh, he even made me cry from laughing so much. I love you, Mr. Knotts. Rest in peace. I'm sure you're giving God a good laugh up there, but we sure do miss you down here.

[laplase1111]

He made his mark on the world, to bad is marker doesn't honor him they way it should.

[champagnevoluptuous]

I figured his grave marker would be fancier, seeing as he was a big star... But then again, he was a hillbilly from West Virginia so who knows...

[marypooopins]

Westwood cemetaty...you can find marker maps on there website.

[schs1977]

champagnevoluptous- Answer the question? What to you have againist the State of West Virginia?

[champagnevoluptuous]

Absolutely nothing. I love WV. Beautiful state with awesome mountains. Don Knotts is from Morgantown, and I hope to see a statue of him up soon there. I also LOVE hillbillies, seeing as I am one!

[RobL2756]

Why did they place his marker sideways? I hope you were joking. Here's a question. If a bird dies in mid-air, who's 'gonna climb up there to bring it down?!

[Silver1Sprg]

Could you advise where his grave is at? The place and placement inside the graveside area? Thanks!

[BKkillaz]

i loved him in the his films

[bethadams8322]

I think you just mad because you got called out on your stupidity!!!

[bethadams8322]

GABESHEDD did you seriously just ask that question, did it not cross your mind that the person with the camera is just standing to the side of his grave and not directly facing it... WOW... wow

[gabeshedd]

Why would they place his grave marker vertically like that?

[bethadams8322]

Did you seriously just ask that question as tp why they placed his marker vertically??? Did it not cross your mind that the person with the camera is standing to the side of Don Knotts grave instead of directly in front of it... wow dude...Wow

[gabeshedd]

I was kidding. Idiot.

[bethadams8322]

I think you just mad because you got called out on your stupidity!!!

[gabeshedd]

Why do you keep double posting?

Also, calling me stupid with posts like this:

"I think you just mad because you got called out on your stupidity!!!"

is a little ironic.

[bethadams8322]

Look douche bag, you got called out, get over it & shut the fuck up.

[gabeshedd]

Eloquent.

[LemoTetson]

Don Knotts seemed like a very down to earth, humble person despite his immense fame and talent. No one like him will ever come around again, may he Rest in Peace.

[RockyBalboa211]

I wish he had something more their I mean he is Don Knotts. But he was in the army and it an honor to be buried in a military area.

[frothydrink]

Beautiful camra work

[garycalgary]

i liked his face when he started to panic i laughed so hard i couldn't breathe

[staderj]

what a brother you are missed jimmy D

[Video840]

I always liked his character on Threes Company. He was funny in that show.

[cope1865]

I turned my computer sideways like you said, but now it's upside down?

[jimbronxny]

The grave marker looks like one you would see at a National Cemetary. Was he a veteran?

[flippysnotze]

WW2 U.S. Army Pacific theatre,was a nurse.

[biggestjohnnycashfan]

don played barney sooo well, the andy griffith show never gets old

[ridinhorses55]

WE LOVE YOU BARNEY!!! <3

[MikesCountryRoom]

God Bless you Don for bringing Barry in our live!! I'll miss you!!

[marioandluigifan001]

he was very funny and barney 5 will leave on

[reints74]

Seems strange he has a plot like we'll have, yet he is a legend to many of us.

[AnimeFox09]

Even though he was a simple person, he was amazing at what he did. I just wish I could place a flower at his grave.

[juliewwjd]

I'm sad :(

[NintendoDS114]

you where in an awesome actor and you where the best barney and rest in peace buddy.

[saltheshoe]

A funny man and a good person.

[PC3900]

A brillian comedic actor, one of the legends. Interesting, his real name is not on the headstone.

[bearsballa123]

r.i.p. don your always have a place in my heart

[NintendosAdvocate]

Videos like this makes me cry. I hate death. Why do people have to die? We've lost so many great and wonderful actors and actresses. Don Knotts was so funny. He alway's reminded me of my Grandpa (though my Grandpa would feel like hitting me if he heard me say that. LOL!) Rest in Peace Don. I'm sure you already are.

[kitboy69]

thanks

[knightriderusa]

His grave now continues to show that even when he's gone, just a simple kind and gentle spirit. Good luck up there buddy, you made billions of people so happy, and that will only continue now that you left us!

[knightriderusa]

Well think of it this way,... maybe he didn't want an elegant gravestone, because that wasn't him in real life, so why in after life?

Just a simple nice man, (but to us an endless iconic legend) of course we want to see this massive statue sculpture of ol' Barn. ...was very down to earth, and level headed, just real and simple,..and I think that's what he's trying to show us now.

"The Simple Things in Life really are always the Best!"

[mayberrymemories]

I am glad to know where he has been laid to rest. It is nice to see it and pay my virtual respect. He was so funny, they don't make them like him anymore. Wish I would have thought of sending a thank you to him while he was alive. Will enjoy watching the reruns. Last night in Portland, there were multiple episodes back to back, so that was fun. Thanks Don!a

[elky78]

It seem something more should be on there.....maybe another name added...."Barney"

[dmbfan07cb]

One of the greatest, most funny actors ever. I watch the Andy Griffith Show every night before bed, it's just so relaxing and calming. So sad to know he's gone, but I apprecite the opportunity to see his grave. Such a small grave marker though.

[EDDIE3131]

Why 1:53 of the same thing I don't understand I love Don Knots an everything why?????

[spaceliner62]

this video is the same thing you do at the graveyard. you stand over the person's grave look and think.

btw - where's it at?

[vacontractor]

On Mon 2/27/2006 Don Knotts was buried in a $36,000 grave near Eva Gabor..Westwood Memorial Park....Los Angeles, Ca

[bratcher71]

Hmm, there's not much to to it.

[groovy196540]

Code2high is right. There should be a monument not just a headstone.

[code2high]

Such a plain headstone for such a huge star

[sammidol]

Neither do I...

[surfcrazenivek]

WTF

[ePhilosopher]

he's saying from the grave, if i could turn over and i wasn't dead, i wouldn't have this apple dumpling creek in my neck, rip ffs. justcame here Don to say that if you weren't so dead, the world might be a happier place.

[duvall1955]

turn your head sideways it will be easier.

[namistai2all]

I don't get it.
