Anton Yelchin - His Grave and Where He Died

[@christopherweaver8567]

The two times I have been here, his mother was there tending to his flowers. Super touching and sad to see

[@kummakummakummakummakummac8606]

I used to visit my dad's grave and there was a woman whose daughter died young and was buried next to my dad. She would talk to me about how sad she was and stuff and it would be really hard to not break down myself. A parent shouldn't have to bury a child.

[@ckotcher1]

That’s so sad 😞. His poor parents loved him so much. They moved here from Russia when he was a little boy and I believe he was an only child. So so sad.

[@ckotcher1]

@@kummakummakummakummakummac8606 that breaks my heart. My Dad died this year and I often stop by other peoples graves near him and look up their stories. One woman near him was a paraplegic who died of cancer and left behind a husband and little daughter ☹️. Another is a 10 year old kid who had a horrible autoimmune disease.

Anton’s mother sits at his graveside nearly every day. I remember first meeting her and passing along my condolences to her in 2018. Little did I know that later that year, my neighbor would die in a freak accident very similar to Anton’s when his brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee somehow rolled on top of him shortly after he had parked the vehicle at the top of his driveway. Ironically, he had just hired ADT a couple months prior and the security cameras would end up recording the entire incident which no one else saw. He was taking a couple trash bags down to the street when out of nowhere, the vehicle just started rolling down the driveway and when it caught up to him where the driveway meets the street, it was too late. My other neighbor (Rolf) found him pinned underneath one of the vehicle’s wheels. I’ll never forget coming home from work that evening and seeing the aftermath of that day’s tragic accident. I thought about my poor neighbor, trapped under that vehicle in the freezing cold (I later found out he too was an only child) and his devastated parents. But oddly enough, it wasn’t until I saw my neighbor’s shiny new Jeep Grand Cherokee being put onto a flatbed tow truck that I suddenly remembered my conversation with Mrs. Yelchin earlier that Spring (her son had also owned a newer Jeep Grand Cherokee) I didn’t have the heart to tell her that I’m from Detroit and that the plant that makes those vehicles is on Detroit’s Eastside, close to where I live. Was it operator error that killed both Anton Yelchin and my neighbor? Possibly (especially since the vehicles were new or newer to them both) I don’t know how many others have died so tragically in a similar fashion, but over the past few years, I sometimes find myself thinking about Mrs. Yelchin and the pain I saw in her face and eyes years ago. My friends in LA visit Hollywood Forever often, and they always see her sitting in the shade next to her son’s grave (but they’re too shy to approach her) Often times, I wish I lived a lot closer to LA, because if I did, I would make a point of stopping by HF and checking on Mrs. Yelchin with the hope that time has helped heal some of her pain and that she is not alone.

The irony was he had a severe breathing issue and probably had 10 years to live. For him to die not being able to breath is cruel.
