LAS VEGAS
Often public interest in
cemeteries is generated by advertising the presence of bodily residuals from
celebrities of days gone by. Such
is the case at the Palm Memorial Park, where Redd Foxx, a comedian who starred
in the television show, Sanford and Son, was buried. But if visitors here who look for his gravesite also explore
additional areas of this property, they will come upon some other eye-catching
elements.
Among them are a number of attractive water
features enhancing the grounds amidst established trees. Next to a mausoleum there’s a tranquil pond
brought to life by the invigoration of a fountain.
At other locations there are graded formations wrought by landscapers
who have integrated rocks, streams, and waterfalls into lush memorial
settings.
After driving through dry and barren landscapes to reach this destination, the aquatic accents in sections of the memorial park are a welcome sight. Maybe community residents in this part of the country appreciate a refreshing opportunity to repose in their midst.
