Karen Carpenter's Tomb

[@evehowarth4704]

Karen Carpenter not only had a beautiful voice she was also an awesome drummer RIP Karen. We miss you 😢

[@alpzepta]

I had a Carpenter Vinyl Record. they sound like heaven. It's probably sound even more heaven with a vintage Pioneer turntable.

[@Sattnin77]

I think a Karen Carpenter song would've been more appropriate since its a video of Karen Carpenter's tomb.

[@MelchizedekKohen]

it probably would get copyrighted

It was nice that you honored Karen Carpenter with this video . I'm sure that her family &friends wanted this little shrine built ,for everyone to sit down & reminisce about the love & joy she brought to us through her songs . What a beautiful lovely lady . "Sing with the angels Karen "

[@pinkfinger66]

She was amazing. Such a joy to have her live on through the music she left in recordings.

[@Jenniferde2007]

A lovely resting place..for a lovely woman with a timelessly beautiful voice. Her gift to us was her talented way of singing a song. I love all of the Carpenters music to this day. She died way too young.

Thank you for posting. I am a huge fan of Karen, I grew up with her music which touches my heart. Watching these videos makes me so very sad, Karen was a beautiful soul and an immeasurable talent, her hauntingly beautiful voice was pitch perfect and would have loved the opportunity to have see one of there concerts...Though she is no longer with us I relive my youth with the Carpenters' music and remember with fondness the times of my life..........

[@tonyp231]

Karen's voice was he most wonderful sound I've ever heard....God Bless You Always.

Although I never Knew her, I love her spirit in my heart. Her voice and songs make me happy,sad,and different feelings that seen so very out of touch. I'm glad that I can still listen to the Love that she tried to show the world. Plus I'am a drummer!!! I'am thankful for her and her music that seems so heartwarming and loving. I hope that she will be in heaven...

... I remember seeing Karen and Richard perform on TV for the 1st time on the All American College show back in 1968. I was smitten instantly - she was gorgeous! ... and that voice! .... 45 years pass and I now find myself living in Southern California ..... I visited her grave on 3/2 on what would have been her 63rd birthday ... left 3 red roses at the entrance .... still smitten after all these years ....

I come to this video a lot. I loved Karen's voice, but in this case, I believe the peaceful, gentle music fits beautifully with this video. I am so grateful to the person who took the time to videotape this. I love that they did not rush, but gave us a view of the breathtaking scenery leading up to the mausoleum. Thank you to whoever was kind enough to share this video. You took me somewhere I will most likely never have the opportunity to go & when I come to this post, I feel like I am paying tribute to Karen. I come here so often because somehow, everything about this video brings me to a peaceful state.

Tears began to shed instantly for me very early this morning when I looked at the big wall calendar & realized it was indeed February 4th once again. Another year (now 29th) has gone by without Karen on earth. But God is really a wonderful God for given us this very precious gift to inspire our lives, entertain us, make us happy perhaps when we're feeling a bit sad. This one life really made a profound difference,So today let's celebrate Karen's Life,& say a prayer. God Bless Karen Carpenter.

[@mariaevans7811]

I believe that Karen always thought that her mothers favourite was her brother, and she came second, also her eating disorder started, when a newspaper called her plump!!! She tried to get well, and when at the end she told people she was well, she was still taking laxatives, which she hid, her heart could not take any more, all this is documented on her autopsy report!!!! Karen your voice will be heared forever!!!! 🐩🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@USPatriot4Sanity]

What a beautiful Soul. It always breaks my heart to know that the woman who sang, "Sing your OWN song. Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear" gave so much weight to the opinions of the A-HOLES of the world. Nothing makes me HAPPIER, yet more SAD than hearing Karen Carpenter and John Lennon. I always wonder what other BEAUTIFUL music would have been created by them. Two lives dedicated to making MUSIC, not WAR. LIVES WELL LIVED. Rest In Peace, Sweet Spirits! ';-(

What a beautiful place for such a deserving special human being! She left us with the most precious of sounds to hear.

I saw her tomb before this move, at Forest Lawn in Cypress. Guess what it was New Years Day (decades ago) Richard pulled up with both parents. Richard had a white t shirt on and the dad had a blue blazer on with The Carpenters on the back. The tomb was on the inside before and I just left it as the Carpenter family car pulled up. It was just them and me watching off to the side. On Karen`s tomb it stated: A Star On Earth - A Star In Heaven. I WILL ALWAYS remember that special day in my life. It was very memorable and touching to me. Like millions of others I was a fan of The Carpenters.

[@OURS23]
