Frankie Vaughan's Grave - Famous Graves - Singer, Actor

[@TheGoldfish03]

As the youngest in my family my eldest brother used to play “If I was a tower of strength “ by Franky Vaughan. Sadly my brother passed some time ago so this song is very special to me.

[@patriciaalland5500]

Frankie Vaughan was a wonderful singer with a unique voice A gentleman who helped Many of the boys clubs A true gentleman . 🙏🏻🕊🙏🏻

[@ReggieThePug]

Yes a gentleman who is not remembered .. Did you not find this graveyard cold???

[@patriciaalland5500]

I remember him well especially For all the help he gave to the youth clubs he was a kind special person.

[@ColinSines]

He came to our youth club on the Isle of Wight in 1980 and signed my Dad's England youth football cap

[@Sdsacanita196]

I don't know why but when you read the words from his grandchildren I got choked up, what a beautiful couple and family, that's the 1st time I've got a tear. Xx

[@bernardreubens8616]

Frankie Vaughan, touched my life in the mid 70s when he was a patron of the Phobics Society when I ran the Phobics Society Cleveland Area. He put a tea party on for us at the Dragonara Hotel Middlesbrough and invited the whole group to his show at the Club Fiesta in Stockton on Tees. We met him, Stella his wife and Andrew and Susan, two of his three children. What a genuine loving couple they were and I believe their home was called Fraydell a mixture of types of their names, I seem to remember him passing in Hospital. It's a long time ago RIP FRANK

[@simthmichael3838]

I remember I remember Frankie Vaughan all saw him at the London Palladium in 1977 give me the Moonlight and the rest to me

[@alisonhicks9106]

My auntie was a massive fan and when I was younger she took me along to see him on stage we were in the front row and to our surprise he got my auntie up on stage to sing with him , she was absolutely delighted and after they sang the song he thanked my uncle for letting him sing with his wife a true gentleman

[@sandrasmith2465]

Oh my goodness how lovely ❤

[@MelanieJolie]

A very talented gentleman…my parents were huge fans of Frankie Vaughan. I am a huge fan of his childrens’ cousin, Amy Winehouse. What a talented family ❤

[@JRobertson-w1o]

What a story and what a man. The world would be a better place if more people were like him. God bless his soul.

[@Paul-fq9pj]

Britains answer to Dean Martin cool guy RIP Frankie

[@HaydnGuite]

A wonderful talent and a true gent in every respect. Up in heaven, he's sat having a mug of coffee ☕ with the other greats who are gone. A fond farewell Frankie ❤ 😊

[@suemckenna2430]

I didnt know Frankie vaughan lived in High Wycombe , I was born in Bushey but never knew or seen this huge cemetary , the main thing being how close the graves are together. Its lovely his wife is now next to him , and although over twenty years between the stones are well kept . Thanks Paul learnt a lot again from this video.

[@dryflyman7121]

Thanks again Paul for another interesting story. As a young boy in the 50’s I remember my Mother had a very unhealthy obsession with Frankie 😂 He was a real gentleman and worked tirelessly for youth charities. RIP Frankie and Mum !

[@nicciwhelan8190]

I cannot get over the size of the cemetery and how regimented all the gravestones stand. I grew up with my parents listening to his music. RIP Frankie ❤

[@evevening7995]

Sadly, they don't make singers like Frankie Vaughan anymore. My favourite song was tower of strength, another great singer in heaven, thanks Paul for the memories 👍👍

[@shaye6598]

I’m surprised you didn’t get lost Paul. What a huge cemetery.

[@chrisjeffries2322]

Frankie was a wonderful singer. I have seen him with Marilyn in 1960's Let's Make Love and also in 1964's It's All Over Town with Lance Percival with The Springfields and The Hollies. Thank you for sharing.

[@Tenortalker]

A wonderful , wonderful singing entertainer and caring human being. We have had photo of him with my sister when he visited a youth club in South East London where my parents volunteered as youth leaders.

[@janetolivant8006]

Met Frankie a few times, what a lovely man, completely family orientated and deeply in love with his wife Stella. I remember him with great joy and affection. A lovely man taken too soon, RIP dear Frankie, xxx

[@karunaraina9655]

[@Sdsacanita196]

Sorry to keep piping up but flippin eck, I'd love to have a day walking round here, there seems to be a lot of pairs/family graves, they're huge. I've never seen anything so beautiful in terms of final resting places. Frankie Vaughan was a very interesting man, thank you for this Paul. Rip Frankie xxx

[@stellastone8720]

I asked my parents if they used to play his music when I was a lot younger, the answer was yes xx

[@elainehalliwell6791]

Wow what a huge place all very close together.. not alot of grass around.. at least the graves wont get overgrown by brambles and grass like in alot of older cemeterys up in yorkshire area.. I'm part of a local cemetery group who keep graves nice and tidy by cutting away brambles and making graves look more respectable ⚘👍

[@hwebster5087]

Thanks Paul , what an enormous cemetery very well kept

[@dawnhenderson6276]

[@janetcopestake2705]

Enjoyed watching. My husband said in the 1960's Frankie Vaughan opened and help fund Whaddon Boys Club in Cheltenham. It's still very popular now.

[@vforvictor7575]

Frankie was a great entertainer for sure

[@rodneywiddowson1093]

Well done for your remembering. RODERS Nottingham 🇬🇧 uk

[@wildwolf2567]

The great Frankie Vaughan. He was a "Tower of strength".

[@maida-vale]

Kind, generous and a surprisingly powerful build but not as tall as tv made you imagine. I was in the business and was surprised to meet him on the train when he came to Worthing, where I was visiting my family and he, to visit and calm relations between "The West Tarring Boys Club" and the "The Rose Wilmott Youth Center" in Durrington. The former had been a rough-house but his influence lived on after his visit!! I know! I had been a Worthing yobbo before bright lights called.

[@janetgilesrudland1028]

My mam absolutely loved him what a guy what a voice just faboulous ❤

[@cherylbostock9265]

Frankie was one of his own - brilliant artist

[@wendymudkins8208]

I remember seeing him on the telly as a child singing what a great career rip Frankie

[@MrRoxyloxy]

He was brilliant.. younger than my mother. This is how I no about this artist 😊❤️

[@winstonhancock4817]

Wow what a cemetery! I didn't realise individuals of different beliefs had there own resting places, ( I who lives in a small market town), so thanks for the education Paul. This cemetery looks well maintained, I also like the way the graves are capped of, something to think about when I take my wings. Frankie Vaughan was a good entertainer, with a great voice, although I didn't know he acted too. Take care of yourself 👻👻👻

[@geoffpoole483]

There used to be strict religious laws concerning burial of nonconformists such as Baptists. There's a cemetery in Norwich which was opened in the 1880s for nonconformists to bury their dead.

[@ollwynaspinall1991]

I have noticed on all the graves there are no flowers 🌹🌹🌹 I think that is so sad 😔 and something that you just don't see in cemeteries 🕊️ that is very unusual thankyou Paul for another great video 🤳🏻👍🏻😊

[@deb4762]

People of the Jewish faith don't put flowers on graves. They place stones on the grave instead

[@Tidybitz]

​@@deb4762... I noticed no flowers too and didn't know why. Thanks for the enlightenment.

He was amazing man god bless him❤

[@brianclarke113]

My Mum and I had photos taken with Frankie when he Last appeared at Coventry theatre such a lovely man so friendly

[@hazelma7022]

I lived in totteridge and went to school with his daughter Susan in Mill Hill. We go the bus from the end of Golf links drive (where he lived). One morning he was going the same way and told his chauffeur to pick us up and took us to school. I was so star struck I didn't know what to say, except than I you!!

[@carolsarah1959]

I have a photo of him and my gt grandma it was her retirement and he gave her a big bunch of flowers she loved it

[@KarlKeeley]

I can remember Frankie he seemed like a lovely person very well researched Paul thank you

I vaguely remember Frankie as a singer but didn’t know that much about him. Thanks for the info Paul ❤

Das sind wunderschöne Erinnerungen. Möge er in Frieden ruhen 🙏. Thank you Paul 💞👋

[@veronicaukynwa8489]

Thank You Paul for another great video. I never knew Franke was a Scouser. He was handsome, great actor and singer. A proper gentleman.

[@crystaldance5731]

Frankie Vaughn was one of the most handsomest entertainer I watched regularly when I was younger don’t make them like him anymore sadly what a huge place and al, the headstones so alike good video Paul thanks for this one 😊❤️

[@andrewchapman2925]

You've done my mum's favourite singer

[@geoffpoole483]

I remember seeing him perform on shows like The Good Old Days (a music hall revival show on BBC) and although his act wasn't the sort of thing I was into it was very obvious that he was extremely talented and he was a joy to watch. That cemetery is huge! You'd probably need an OS grid reference to find some of the graves. There's a large Jewish cemetery in Warsaw and the most notable grave is that of Zamenhof, the founder of Esperanto. Fortunately his grave is very easy to find. I'm very surprised Frankie Vaughan wasn't bigger in America but it's their loss.

[@doreennicholas7291]

I meet him when I entered a singing contest when I came second he was very nice man

[@shazza47]

Wow I've never seen such a huge and jam packed cemetery 😮 Thank you for another great video.

[@margaretbeck-kz6if]

Frankie was a really good singer . I mind I seen him in Glasgow when fe was doing a docoumentry on Glasgow gangs great video Paul 🎤🎵Easterhouse Glasgow .

[@Cat-bz7tm]

Frankie vaughans voice was very unique , kisses sweeter than wine , only he can sing that to perfection , quite a talent to star with Marylin monroe too.

[@aliciacollins9886]

Wow what an amazing cemetery and beautiful headstones looks really well kempt could spend all day looking around there. My mum was a massive fan of Frankie spent many a time dancing round the living room with my sister to his music one of the world's best crooners , Mr moonlight.

Amazing

[@soo_p2]

Super video Paul as per! That cemetery though gave me the willies! Felt very unsettled watching. Such huge graves and too close together. Yikes🙀 xxx

[@ladywalker8200]

The cemetary may have looked different because there were no flowers anywhere on the graves.That is because Jewish people don't lay wreaths or flowers but put a small stone on the grave to show they have visited. (My husband was Jewish)

[@angelawhelan7061]

One of my dad's favourite singers

[@kaybright2539]

Hi Paul liked the video sorry to hear about your phone massive cemetery looking forward to the next video 🙂👍👌

[@carollawson1210]

Hi Paul I did meet him in 1952 on Blackpool pier I was 2 years old and mum was only 19 at the time. He gave mum a photo of himself and signed it to Dorothy and Carol. Sadly the photo was lost somewhere in time but Mum is still with us. Thanks for the video so glad you were able to find his grave. 👋 ❤

[@dougwalton5414]

My limo company supplied a white Rolls Royce for his daughter Susan's wedding when he lived on The Links in Totteridge. He was very generous with a gratuity and a very pleasant chap.

Great to hear 🙏

I saw him in 42nd Street in London in 1985. My first west end theatre trip.

[@jacquelinedavies1776]

Many years ago frankie came to swansea woolworths in a chauffeur crowds turned up to see him myself I had a little terrier dog named Judy, due to the crowds I picked up my dog in my arms. Frankie got out of the car waved & came straight over to me & asked what my dogs name (it was judy) he picked up her paw & gently kissed it & smoothed her head & I just loved him after that

Thank you Paul.

Love this one Paul. Years ago in the 70’s it was New Year in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Hogmanay and I was about 7/8yo and my grandad who didn’t drink (unlike the rest of them) burst into the room singing ‘Give me the moonlight,give me the girls….’and I always remember that and that’s how I know Frankie Vaughn,awesome singer.
