Jack And Eddie's Place

Hillside was founded in 1941
by a couple of funeral directors
and sold in the early 1950s to
Temple Israel of Hollywood,
which expanded it to 48 acres.
The park reflects typical
Jewish roots, with beautiful
stained glass, specially commis-
sioned artwork, fountains and
monuments.
The grave area includes
ground spaces, garden estates,
family estates, wall crypts, fami-
ly rooms, sarcophagi, cenotaph
walls, niches and urn gardens.
The second most expensive
resting-place at Hillside is a
huge mausoleum, just up the
hill from the Jolson memorial.
The largest sarcopha-
gus in the mausoleum
belongs to one of
America's most beloved
comedians, Jack Benny
(Benny Kubelsky), who
died in 1974. He
starred in vaudeville,
radio, movies and TV
for more than 40 years.
His real-life wife, come-
dienne Mary
Livingstone (Sayde
Marks), died in 1983
and lies next to him.
Benny's epitaph says, simply;
"Husband, father, grandfather, a
gentle man.
"Most of the celebrity graves
here have humble inscriptions
like that," Rothman pointed
out. "They refer to the stars'
lives as nice, ordinary Jewish
family people, and not to the
show business careers. The fam-
ilies want to remember them as
they knew them, not what they
meant to the public.
Of course, we don't keep
track of which families visit the
graves — but the celebrities get
their share of visitors, along
with the ordinary Jewish people
whose graves may be nearby.
We've never really noticed
Jolson family members at his
monument — but many Al
Jolson Fan Clubs still exist, even
an international club, and they
often visit."
As for celebrity families, there
is the oft-repeated story of Jack
Benny's father ordering him to
attend Yom Kippur services one
year. Bored after a few hours,
