[@Whittdocs]

[@davidmckinney6577]

@@Whittdocs well I'm doing fair I guess I've been better for sure. I talked to my uncle and he is trying to cope the best he can with loosing his daughter a couple of weeks ago in there he said that his two other daughters were really having it bad so I pray that God will help them through this uncertain times. Me and Arnold are watching you tube videos Arnold is doing pretty good today it's just him and me since bigfoot passed away in April the fifth of this year.

[@Whittdocs]

Thanks for that info. Greatly appreciate it.

[@pennyboynton2491]

I have never heard of Mr bcroff but I think it's very interesting that she tell us stories about people that we don't know of. That way we learn more about the the past and learn of interesting and unknown things. Thank you for showing these videos. Keep up the great work!

[@Whittdocs]

I truly appreciate that.

[@libertygiveme1987]

Awwwww, he passed on my Birthday. Can't say I have ever heard of him, but apparently, he was a good actor that kept busy on the stage. Thanks Again Whittdoc for bringing a part of history to us!!!!

[@Whittdocs]

[@stephenogley9655]

Chris, I am retired from a career in professional theater. Although, I was never on Broadway, I was in the San Francisco production of "The Phantom of the Opera". By the way, I don't know if you've ever seen this musical but there is a rather impressive looking gravesite in one scene. Anyway, although I was not on Broadway my Mom and Dad were. My Dad was the understudy to John Raitt (Bonnie's Dad) in Carousel. My mother was the hairdresser to Ethel Merman in Carousel. Would you consider doing a video on the gravesites of famous people in the genre of professional musical theater, e.g. Ethel Merman, John Raitt, Carol Channing, Mary Martin, just to name a few?

[@marcieconant5559]

Correction: Mom was Ethel Merman's hairdresser in Gypsy, NOT Carousel. Sorry about that.

[@Whittdocs]

I would absolutely love to!

[@kerrydruck9036]

RIP Victor Beecroft

Hey next time you in Norfolk give me a shout. I do all the cemetery tours for oriole and their cemetery historian. When you did the grand Ole opera stone right across street from there was the very first female tattooist is buried there few sections away is the godfather of tattooing. Makes sure to visit elnwood and cedar grove we have e tons and tons of history here.

[@Whittdocs]

That is so neat! Thank you for sharing. That sounds so interesting.

[@crowscall1901]

Even though Mr. Beecroft is not an actor that the average person would recognize as a celebrity, he was a great stage player. Let's face it, John Wikes Boothe was a renowned stage actor in his day, but is now remembered solely for one foul deed that caused infamy in place of fame.😞

[@Whittdocs]

That’s such a true statement. Thanks for sharing!

[@SurfCityBill]

One man dies, another is born. Beecroft died a month before I was born.

[@Whittdocs]

Neat. Thanks for sharing that.

[@davidmcdonald5261]

Never heard of him.

[@Whittdocs]

I hadn’t either. Glad that I visited his final resting place.

[@sharonwilliams7384]

What did they die .from and at what age?

[@Whittdocs]

He passed as age 71 and I couldn’t find a cause.

[@sharonwilliams7384]

@@Whittdocs Heart attack. But just not Marty Robbins.. You have a good start, I do like your videos, better than most. Watch some of Hollywood grave yard. I think it will be helpful. Looking forward to your channel in the future.

[@Lilaa86]

It’s always enjoy to learn new stories.. as always great video 🤳👏🏼📱
