Frank Sinatra Grave | Sonny Bono Grave | Famous Graves Palm Springs

In this video I visit Desert Memorial Park in Cathedral City , just outside of Palm Springs and visit the gravesite of Frank and Barbara Sinatra, as well as the former mayor of Palm Springs, Sonny Bono.
Frank Sinatra (December 12, 1915 - May 14, 1998) was an American singer, actor, and producer who was one of the most popular and influential musical artists of the 20th century. He is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, having sold more than 150 million records worldwide.
Salvatore Phillip "Sonny" Bono (February 16, 1935 - January 5, 1998) was an American singer-songwriter, producer, actor, and politician who came to fame in partnership with his second wife Cher, as the popular singing duo Sonny & Cher. He was mayor of Palm Springs, California from 1988 to 1992, and the Republican congressman for California's 44th district from 1995 until his death in 1998.

Sinatra's grave is so humble, I'm surprised its not more noticeable. I remember when sonny died and at his funeral Cher was so heartbroken during her speech- u could tell she was genuinely moved. Great video 😊

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Christina Kopcsos I remember that speech too. Thank you for watching as always Christina !

Thanks for the shout out, Scott! Glad you found Frank and Sonny. It was fun to see you in MY cemetery in front of my future niche :-) A couple of years ago, Jim and I purchased our niches in the wall that overlooks Sinatra's grave. My grandparents are buried a few rows past Sinatra, so we can see their graves, too. Hopefully, we won't need our niches any time soon, but I think you know me by now, I like to plan ahead and don't like to wait until the last minute :-)

[@almakehlerbrown3935]

I'm surprised (pleasantly), at what a humble grave he has. He definitely was a great entertainer. Great video Scott. Ty❤

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Snoopy Kehler thank you Alma! Hope ur well!

[@janadeubner9883]

So many golden oldies & memories that are gone from here. Nice peaceful cemetery. Thanks Scott.

[@erikduhon2369]

I've been following your channel for about 9 months now and can honestly say that your vlogs are the best! ( Not just saying that either) I truly enjoy all. I'm slowly going through everything you have done while watching your latest as well. Every topic that you cover is interesting and fun, you make it seem like I am right there with you. For that I thank you!!

[@jennifermalek3449]

Wow! Loved this video, as I have all the ones you put out for all of us. I grew up listening to all types of music, and growing up in an Italian family he was one of many that we loved to play a lot, Dean Martin, huge rat pack fan love it. I love the sound of old blue eyes, had such an amazing voice he was class. I was very sad when he passed away, but he lives on through his wonderful amazing musical legacy he left behind

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Jennifer Malek thank you so much Jennifer I’m glad u liked it ! I loved Dean as well , such a great voice.

[@albertam3715]

Cemetery is beautiful and gorgeous and you have amazing singing voice Scott

[@mandyrotchekk8672]

What an absolutely fantastic video Scott, when i recieved my notification and read the title i was excited to watch your video. I grew up around old movies my mum enjoyed them emensely and in black and white it gave the movie more charactor. The Ratpak what can i say their music is timeless and caters for a wide age range. Frank Sinatra was a brilliant actor with a wide raxge of wovies under his belt but if i had to choose one it would have to be Devil at 4 o clock where he acted alongside Spencer Tracey. I have to say though i imagined the great Frank Sinatra to have a more elaberate grave, however he is with his family too. You narrated that beautifully and entertainf us with your singng too lol and scott dont ever stop your rambling hun it makes me chucle. Now, the talented Sony Bono he was brillant, Sony and cher they were a national instatuation and i reall watching a clip on you tube of Bonos funeral service, Cher was doing her yueladgy for her ex husband and i believe best friend it was so aparent how devostated she was. Scott this has been a brilliant video i simply annt wait for the next one 😎👍💙

[@esthergoulart3571]

Frank was such a great guy!! Great video my friend!! Beautiful last resting place!! Love your videos Scott!! You’re great m!! Love you!! Peace!! 💙💙💖💖❤️❤️💜💜🙏🙏🙏✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@alexanderpatrick4866]

Sonny Bono was certainly a Class Act in his own right. I just read an article where they were interviewing Cher and she said no matter how long they had not seen each other as soon as they were in the same room together it was Sonny and Cher all over again. She said they definitely clicked and that was definitely her other half. I like how you explain how to find the graves but the funny thing is there seems to be quite a few of them with flowers. I don't think visiting Graves is boring at all. We're all human beings with the same destination no matter what we do with our lives and I think it's great to pay respect to these people. Thanks again for another fun video! Be safe out there young man!

[@bionicrat]

Yes Franky baby! I’m so glad I have schooled my daughters on awesome people like Frank Sinatra who was an amazing singer and actor! Frank Sinatra and so many others are the reason why the word legend exists. Sonny Bono was definitely another amazing legend I love Sonny and Cher and their awesome outfits🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank you for this video. You do such an excellent job of sharing all the information on these amazing people! I’m glad I found your channel .

[@elainebines6803]

My mum said he's real true love was Ava Gardner but I think Barbara was the stability in his life, which in my opinion, he needed. Great video thank you 👍🏻

[@amyconway9923]

Whats up scott.. i know u do. It beautiful. Scottunique. Nice video

[@marquesalston9227]

I like to think that Frank was close with his family and friends due to the proximity of all the graves. He seemed like a real loyal guy to his circle of friends and family. I dont know much about Sonny, but ive seen clips of him back in the 70s and 80s and he was pretty funny. I'm digging the red kicks Scott...saw you buy them in another video....i might have to snag me a pair. Good stuff brother and safe travels my friend. #WeAreTheRest2050

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Marques Alston thanks Marques! I loved Frank and he totally seemed like a loyal guy. And these red adidas shoes are slowing getting duuuurty and it’s pissing me off! I shouldn’t have worn them in the desert or out in the rain . Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. See you soon in Texas!

[@marquesalston9227]

@@SCOTTONTAPE Cool brother! DM on IG and let me know when and where!!!

[@catherinebernal7016]

[@peterj5022]

Frank's lifetime road manager, security chief and pal Jilly Rizzo is buried in the row above Frank and 2 graves to the left. Oh, you came to Jilly later in the vid.

[@missyevans2696]

🗺 Your a traveling beast!! You were much younger? Who talked you into shaving your head? Did you say cult? LMAO.. I'm surprised they weren't encrypted. Wow nice because he didn't have grandkids at the time of death? 🤔🤔🤔 Dunno, oversight maybe??I'm surprised not in a family crypt. Wow.Thanks to Steve The Graveyard Guy. Thanks for being hospitable to Scott!

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Missy Evans I started out doing a fade for my hair and then my I told my hairdresser Andrew I wanted a straight Mohawk and he was like....ehhhh lol. And now I do it myself every day and get it touched up a few times a year.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Missy Evans and Steve was awesome and I have more videos coming with him!

[@moonbeam8487]

I love the mountains I grew up in Bishop California I miss the mountains so much at times.I want to move in the mountains but theirs so many places I want to move sometimes you know but I don’t have my moneys to move quit yet lol 😂. We were in a Christian cult when I was little in Eureka California but I never knew that because I was so little then and everything then was just fun fun but of course you know that as a kid 🧒 kids always have fun. I had a lot of good times their sometimes I wonder if that Christian accult is still their. What kind of accult are you in I am not in any accult but I like watching that tribulations saints guy on yu tube. I still love watching your videos keep up the good work and I will keep watching okay by now and peace out ✌️ lol 😂.

[@intoxicatedhate]

You would think old blue eyes would have a bigger plot.

[@RockinStacy]

One of the best of old Hollywood, old blue eyes. Best part of the rat pack, imo. He was a little snake in the grass though, wouldn't keep it in his pants. And he always went back to Nancy. He would just show up at her place and let himself in, year's after their divorce. He kept in contact with her until his death. I honestly feel that she was the only one that he truly loved. He was never faithful to any of his 4 wives. As he said (and his song title), he did it his way! He had I believe, 5 grandkids at his death. And just so you know, those are fake flower's, not real. ;) Thanks for the trip down memory lane... Peace...

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Rockin' Into The Night wow Stacy I did not know that about Frank and Nancy. That’s such a sweet story . I have a few classic Hollywood videos coming up that I think u will like. Hope everything is good with u 💛💛

[@feedthehungry1]

Scott when you say style that's good bro fits real good man. I will further and I'll say that these people are classy individuals so classy that they made a mold of class and poured their self into it when you think of finesse Sonny and Cher and Frank both fit those to the T when I think of Frank I think of Justice and I say that because one of my favorite things or stories I guess I could say about Frank was that he had a buddy named Sammy and Sammy was a black man and although this black man was very popular man there were some popular places did would not let Sammy sleep in their hotels. renowned there would not let him sleep in the hotel room with Frank and the rest of the brat pack. So Frank being The Classy man that he was send a few boys from the old village to visit these establishments. If you weren't a friend of Sammy Davis Junior then you weren't a friend of Frank Sinatra.

[@alexanderpatrick4866]

Hey Scott you mentioned in the video that Jilly Rizzo was leaving Frank Sinatra's birthday party. I don't know if I heard you wrong but I just read that it was Jilly's 75th birthday when he was killed.

[@rediscoverwithsharona]

Hey Scott just did a little digging. When Frank in 1998 he had 2 granddaughter from his daughter Nancy. Then in his Frank Jr has 3 children from 3 affairs he had ranging from 1972 to 1987. So short answer is. Yes why no grandfather on his headstone.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

Oh wow that’s so interesting thank you for finding that out Sharon
