you up towards the top is Robert Cobb he's the owner of the Brown Derby he's also the inventor of the cobb salad which I'll be eating a lot of this new year it looks like they're doing some remodeling here or not it wouldn't be remodeling it' be repairs in a mausoleum next section over is sanctuary of heritage there'll be several CPS that we'll visit in this area starting out on the left is

I'll be using a Blue Book to determine the value of my car if I trade it in or if I get it repaired now we head back down towards the main Corridor the entrance is on the left we're in the freedom maum located in Glendale California the next famous grave we're looking for is on the right we're at at the sanctuary of Liberty up towards the top left is Barbara Rooney she is Mickey Rooney's fifth
