Famous Graves : Brad Renfro | His Final Resting Place

[@lindachavezw...246]

They filmed a movie at the hubbys job years ago. He was the Mgr at the time. The film crew came in and painted certain areas of the office to be used. They set their props up and we got to see the whole process. I can't remember the name of the movie but Brad Renfro and Darryl Hannah starred in it. He came over an introduced himself to us. She did too. But he was such a sweetheart. He even managed to get my daughter on as an extra. He was as real and personable as they come. He took pictures with all of us. And when they broke for lunch, we were invited to sit with the cast members and have lunch also. He came and sat with us and was just chatting away. Darryl Hannah also sat with us. She was so beautiful. Anyway, we were so sorry when we heard he had passed away. You are missed Brad. Rest In Peace, Buddy 💙

They filmed at my stepdads work (an airport in New Orleans called “Lakefront Airport”) for THE CLIENT. Used in the film, was the ending clip as the family is taking off to move from Louisiana. Imagine a 12-13 year old me seeing the client when it came out, falling in love with Brad, then finding out my stepdad was there when it was filmed-Devastated. At 38 I saw his grave and sent photos to my family. They were happy as they knew meeting him had always been a bucket lister.

[@janadeubner9883]

I remember Brad was so good in the Client. The cemetery was so obscure until I realized he had a lot of family buried there too. Rest in Peace Brad.

[@phoenixpierce5478]

I didn’t walk around and see the rest of the family either, as I had my dog with me (we were on a cross country trip), but we did meet the neighbors who were friends of his grandmother. They were such a delight.

He was my childhood crush. I even wrote him a letter. I was very sad when I heard he passed. RIP Brad. Thanks for the video Scott.

[@TB-om4dd]

Yes very sad. the worst thing was that his son is growing up without a father.

[@Candie183]

This hurts my soul. And the way the film industry just ignored his death is sickening. He deserved so much more.

[@almediafleck1512]

my oldest daughter went to school with brad when he lived in south knoxville then he started living with his grandmother. he was a good kid. we still love you bud.your greatly missed.

[@keetahbrough]

Ledger's death totally overshadowed Brad's death. I didn't even know. Same thing with Michael Jackson, and Farrah Fawcet. Her tragic passing was almost ignored because of MJ. And that in itself was really sad and tragic. She deserved way more then her 1 minute announcement. That's a gorgeous piece of Land that Renfro occupies. And back to Mother Earth.. he goes. xo :*

[@71superchick]

Thank you so much for visiting his grave. I’m from the south and lived in Tennessee many years. A lot of these cemeteries are very rural and small. It means a lot to take the time to get there. I know his fans really appreciate it. I do❤️

[@brentpage5833]

His grandma died shortly after he, from a broken heart. Brad knew his career was shot. Wish he'd been able to have made a recovery like Robert D. Jr., but that wasn't in the cards.😔

Brad Renfro, what a legend 🙏💔

[@kacirodriguezferrell7323]

I loved Brad. He was such a talent. I’ll never forget the rainy Tuesday when he died. I took my husband to Knoxville to see his beloved Vols play and he took me out to Blaine to see Brad’s grave. Today would’ve been his 40th birthday and as I do every anniversary of his birth and death I will honor him by watching some of his movies and I always start with the Client. Here’s to Bradfest 2022!

[@mykkie100]

Brad had a wandering spirit. He was a Beautiful but perplexing soul. The best description from me would be "street wise with a big heart.". He was extremely bright. He left us way to early. Thanks once again, Scott.

Brad had so much amazing natural talent. The client, Bully, Apt Pupil. All great performances. Like Scott i also believe that an Oscar would pretty much have been inevitable for this guy. Amazing talent. Far too young to be lying in the earth. Even though it is a beautiful spot. RIP Brad.

He was soooo talented in the client!! It's amazing how he had raw talent in acting without any formal acting lessons.

[@townhall05446]

@@anitaknight3915 Totally agree. How can a kid living in a trailer take on a movie role like that and act the role so perfectly that he never seemed to be acting? TV and the movies are full of kids and young teens who make a lot of money and haven't 1% the talent he had. The people who facilitated his weakness towards drugs etc. should live in shame at what they were part of destroying.

Thank you so much for taking the time and going out of your way to visit Brad's grave. He was an amazing actor with natural talent. He would have been on the A list if he had lived long enough. He had a hard and short life but he made such an impact. He was my all time number one celebrity crush when I was a teenager. I had posters of him on my bedroom wall! Thank you so much for honoring his legacy.

I too visited his grave. It was beautiful. Also the people who live on site are wonderfully kind, they even told me where to find him. Oh! What I found quite funny was the little c02 cartridges by his stone. I found it to be a beautiful resting spot for him, and my dog and I spent about an hour with him, having stopped on our way from Ms to VA. . So sad. He was a very talented soul. I’m glad they placed him in such a beautiful space. 😢

So young. That’s really sad. Small cemetery but really pretty. RIP MAN. I should watch some of his movies. I haven’t seen any.

[@townhall05446]

I watched The Client and could not believe that this kid had no training, no experience, and went from living in a mobile home to that role on the screen. He was still only ten years old when filming started and his performance was totally natural. You never caught him 'acting'. IMO he had at least the same level of natural talent as James Dean, but doesn't get the recognition. And nothing against i.e. Mac Culkin but Renfro had 100x the talent, instead of being cute and mugging for the camera. RIP.

[@truckerprincess4383]

He was one of my favorite actors I loved the Tom n huck movie

[@TVHouseHistorian]

Brad was one of those rare people for whom acting/performance just *flowed* out of them naturally. I feel like these are people who carry unhealed wounds and unspeakable childhood pain, and that's how they access such remarkable ability in their craft. Acting seems to distract them from the trauma of their past. To put it another way - as with substance abuse, it's as if the characters they portray help distance them from the pain they carry. I really don't know how all that works, but it's often you see the most gifted actors struggle with substance abuse, and end up passing away. They carry a heavy load their whole lives, and often times this is the result. Tough as it is for their fans to believe, these actors are human too. Rest in peace, Brad. ❤

[@breephoenix111]

What a beautiful resting place, Brad was a natural talent. I never knew Bread left a 4 year old son behind. I miss Heath so much, we grew up near each other in Subiaco Perth, he was always so full of life and grounded and just a beautiful person. Two great actors gone way to soon. Try for sharing Scott 🙏💛🇦🇺

The scenery is beautiful there. I can’t even put into words how beautiful. Perfect for a soul like Brad 💜💜 I wish I could visit to pay my respects. Micheal was his Uncle and I believe Micheal read the obituary at Brad’s funeral. Also, I don’t know for sure but I don’t think his relationship was bad with his father. I think there’s a lot we don’t know. He had substance abuse issues but that’s not who he was. There’s no doubt some type of abuse happened when he was out making movies but aside from drugs and any abuse….he was a wonderfully talented, sweet and down to earth young man. He could play guitar like no other and was very talented 💜 He was my crush in the 90’s teen magazines and still is. Life can be so hard sometimes and I hope he isn’t hurting anymore. His dear Grandmother JoAnne that raised him past away back in 2008 of February not to long after Brad and I don’t believe she’s buried at Red House. Thank you for the video and taking me here 💜 Its breathtaking but sad at the same time. RIP Brad oh how I would of loved to meet you

[@anitaknight3915]

Sloan bella did a great energy reading with Brad. He had a troubled past with drugs and sexual abuse trauma like many young actors in Hollywood unfortunately. He had such a sweetness to him like Corey haim and River Phoenix.

[@phoenixpierce5478]

I went yesterday and have been sad since I left. His grandmother not mother were buried there, but there were a few family members with him. I was disappointed his grandmother wasn’t there with him.

[@townhall05446]

@@anitaknight3915 Corey Haim and River Phoenix, with all due respect, were not the natural acting talent Brad was, and they were encouraged if not pushed to get into acting. Renfro got his first role not because he was cute but because he was so real, and a social worker suggested him for the Client role. Unlike the others, you never caught him acting. A shame though that none of them survived their careers; their careers helped end their lives by making drugs so easy to get involved with.

[@Miriyum1031]

He was definitely my first movie star crush.. We were the same age. I met him briefly when he was filming The Cure in Stillwater, MN. Though I’ve moved around a bit, I currently still live in the same town.. I just got married in the Park where he goes down the street in the shopping cart. I watched as they filmed it and got a chance to be an extra in the opening school scene.. I always called the sidewalk he walked down, “The sacred sidewalk” since I had such a crush on him.. I was thee most nervous 11 year old ever when I asked him for his autograph.. which ended up in the washer a week later! Needless to say, I ALWAYS double check my pockets before putting them in the washer now! RIP BRAD You’re truly an awesome being 💚
