  • Do you know who is buried in the grave to the right of F. Scott Fitzgerald/ Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald? It would really help me out on something I'm working on.

  • Yes they are next to each other.

  • Thank you very much for posting this video. I have always wanted to visit F. Scott's burial site but have only seen photos of it. The way in which you walk through the church, with your video camera, into the cemetery, showing everything around it, including the modern city in the background, is the next best thing to being there. I really appreciate that you did this. Thank you again.

  • You're welcome, and thank you for the kind words.

  • I believe "Tender" is his best novel.

    He lived it more than the others.

  • I went to the elementary school for the church where the graveyard is.

  • Very moving and eloquent in it's own way. And astute of you not to have cluttered- up the video with some sappy soundtrack which would have negatively impacted the visual. Borne back ceaselessly into the past . . . Well done!

  • whaddaya mean "mundane" ?? Ya' should have seen the original place, The church would not allow him at his death to buried in concecrated ground because of his writings. They many years later had a change of heart with much work on the part of his daughter to get it done.

  • It's not the original burial site but rather where he was re-interred sometime later. The presiding Priest & pastor of the church for the re-interrment was Father William J. Silk who died in 2002. Scotty F.Scotts daughter attended the ceremony.

  • sad that such an exciting man should end up in such mundane surroundings...wonder what it looked like back then...thank you for showing us something so specialxx

  • Scott is my favorite writer of fiction too.

    Thank you for the video.

  • Fitzgerald is my favorite writer of fiction, bar none. "Tender is the Night" is the finest novel I have ever read, it is perfection of the form. Thank you for the video, I have always wanted to visit that site.
