THE GRAVES OF GENE WILDER & GILDA RADNER | Where They Died , Their Connecticut Home, and Cemetery

[@Tammy-pj2ht]

The mailbox is the famous painting called Starry Night.

[@KristineS73]

Yes I came to say this😊

[@insidebillyshead]

I thought so!

[@teresas.7076]

Van Gogh.

[@sharonletchford9375]

Vincent van Gogh. 🙏🌟✨🌒🌑

[@katieskorner8606]

Can you imagine how many times Gene sat on that bench to visit Gilda after she passed?! Love of a lifetime! RIp to them both!

[@ddt3831]

I was thinking that too!

[@lareeriverola3637]

never thought of that

[@BlondeRockChick]

He sure loved her. I thought that was so amazing of a man to do . Most people re marry move on , he didn’t! Their house and garden looks amazing.Sad they’re both gone.

[@lauranorwar]

That’s such a beautiful thought!!

[@lala188420]

Was just wondering this too! ❤

[@robinr71]

My ex husband and I used to snow plow Gene's driveway, after Gilda passed away. He would watch us from the bedroom window. Seeing him wearing a nightshirt and nightcap, waving like a little kid was heartwarming. Gilda used to shop at my first job, she was the nicest woman. You wouldn't ever know they were such famous people.

[@swansong5263]

What a lovely memory, Thank oh so much for sharing it! I loved Gene Wilder, best wishes From England.

[@chrisrice2083]

Thats so cool

[@cheribee968]

Madeline khan was a close friend of Gilda’s. She stayed loyal up to the end , for Gilda. Ironically, Madeline died of ovarian cancer within ten years of Gilda.

[@TheChadWork2001]

Madeline was so attractive

[@Kathleen5429]

I was the demo chef at the Food Emporium in New Canaan when Gilda was sick. Gene would come into the store with his tiny cutie pie dog hiding under Gene's armpit and the dog was so quiet that no one ever knew there was a dog in the store. Gene would always stop to talk to me and I would always give him a container of soup to take home to Gilda. He was a special man with no pretenses. For all that he was going through while the love of his life was dying, he could still look at you with his smiling eyes and want to chat about anything that was on his mind. I'm so glad that he met Karen after Gilda passed. I feel he was the kind of man who needed companionship and I'm glad that he and Karen were in love. I do wonder though if some part of his cremains were sprinkled over Gilda's grave. God bless both of them. They certainly were talented, kind, and caring people.

[@catherineferguson7388]

Hi Scott, Gene Wilder was the best one for Charlie and the chocolate factory. That’s a beautiful property he had. I love all the trees surrounding it. I don’t think I would fancy that busy road out the front. That’s a smart grave site for Gilda Wilder, May she RIP under the tree 💐💐💐. RIP Gene Wilder 💐💐💐🙏. Thank you Scott ❤️❤️✌️🤟🏼👍

[@gregd4633]

Remember when Gene did the series it was “Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory” because Charlie was the little boy who Willy left the factory to.

[@AmyMarieNaglowsky-e7k]

How did Gene Wilder die ?

[@meaghanmcgurn2469]

The tears I cried when he died❤ you could see in his eyes what a soul he had

[@gladysdisibbio5677]

RosannaBananaDanna...Them two were MADE for each other. Miss them terribly. RIP

[@je5115]

No banana involved in the name, it was Roseanne Roseannadanna

[@michellestreater3296]

I read Gene didnt tell anyone he was sick because he didnt want fans eapacally kids to be sad when they saw him he wanted them to be happy

[@mariebelladonna437]

Yes, he didn't want kids to see Willy Wonka as a "sick old man". He wanted to keep the magic for them. I think that shows what a big, selfless heart he had.

[@traciegraves8142]

My wife and soulmate Tracie of 25 years passed away in 2021, so I can definitely relate to the love Gene and Gilda shared in this life and now in the next, which I will with Tracie someday soon enough. Pleasantly surprised that the address on the mailbox of their house is 476. My wife Tracie was born April, 1976, love it when little moments like that happen. Thanks for the video, great job as always.

[@italoluder]

I do like you very much Scott. Always so respectful.

[@esterdrass4964]

I grew up in NY when SNL began. Yes, everyone loved Gilda and Rosanne Rosannadanna. Everyone waited for Rosanna. I haven't watched that show since those days. They were both enjoyable talented actors.

[@brianpaape4712]

My favorite Gene Wilder and Gilda Radner movie is Haunted Honeymoon. Their chemistry together was great! Thank you for taking me with you, Scott!

[@RetroEli1982]

R.I.P. Gene and Gilda🕯️🕊️🙏🏽

[@chrisbrown2191]

Gilda’s Club created in her memory to help cancer patients and families fight and deal with cancer.

[@Criscilla241]

Right on West Houston Street in Greenwich Village! I’ve walked by it several times. I’ve always heard great things about it!

[@lauranorwar]

There is one in Grand Rapids, Michigan too!

[@christine-q5k]

Love love love Gilda. Her memoir, ''It's Always Something'' is my favorite book of all time. It's ironic that after all these years have passed and now I am dealing with the same cancer that took her life way too early. Thank you for this wonderful video. You're the best Scott.

[@SCOTTONTAPE]

You’ll get through this Christine . Please keep us updated on your progress

[@lauranorwar]

Yes! Please do keep us posted. You WILL get through this. And you’re right about Gilda’s book. It was amazing!!

[@Criticalthinker0515]

Look up fenbendazole it might help good luck.

[@andreadragonfly1878]

I read Gilda's book also! That story she told regarding the umbrella and the shoes hanging from it has never left me! Rest in peace Gilda and Gene! You are still loved and remembered! ❤❤

[@dalysmontes3215]

@@christine-q5k I ❤️ that book it helped through my own ordeal of pre ovarian cancer scare giving me the strength and laughter. Btw laughter is a great non invasive healer. Thank you Gilda and Gene for sharing all . R.I.P. the celestial 💥non stop comedy is roaring.

[@esthergarcia1373]

Thanks for taking us to Gene and Gilda’s final resting place. Connecticut is a beautiful place to be. RIP 🪦 to both. ❤❤🙏🌟💐💎

[@marykoch1666]

Love the old crew in the 70's of Saturday night live

[@anneiwanowski9653]

I started watching SNL in the first year it was on. I guess it would have been in the last 70's early 80's. I found it just flipping channels on Saturday Night! OMG it was hilarious! I loved Gilda, she was the best! Carol Burnett and Gilda Radner are two of the very best female comedians of all times ❤ Love you Scott! Take care and safe travels ❤️ Connecticut is beautiful this time of year!!

[@janadeubner9883]

Same here. I was flipping through the channels looking for something to watch. It was addictive! I remember Chevy Chase say pot on tv and I was shocked! Not on tv! Lol. different times!

[@rynn0077]

1975. It started the year I was born. I'm only like a month or so older

[@cardio0007]

The mailbox isn't psychedelic. It is homage to Van Gogh's Starry Starry Night.

[@Jendromeda]

it does look like a "trip" tho lol i wonder....??? lol

[@RlsIII-uz1kl]

Reminds of Vincent by Don McLean.

[@tanyahardy5065]

@@RlsIII-uz1kl That is who the song Starry Starry Night is about- Vincent Van Gogh. Beautiful.

[@vickyabramowitz2885]

The painting is named, "The Starry Night."

[@SuzanneTaylor-tq7df]

I loved Gilda and gene. Gene didn't like the remake of Willy Wonka. Charlie and the chocolate factory. He said it was all about the money. I agree. Love to both of them . ❤️❤️

[@rlcarver]

Both their spirits live on at that house. RIP to two genuinely loving souls ❤

[@zipshed]

They were great and those were better times for sure. The world was truly a better place when they were in it.

[@carlasioux420]

Well considering I'm 60 I don't have to mention what my fav SNL seasons are. Hint 1: in the words of... Rosanne Rosanna Danna🗣️ "Oh Todd You Pizza Face." Hint 2: Hi I'm Buckwheat, Amemba me? Singing... 🎶"Wookin' Pa Nub In Aw Da Wong Places..."🎶😂🤣 And I could be wrong but but judging by my phone that mailbox looks like the "Starry Night" painting by Van Gogh. Btw, I liked the ending... 🤭 Are you sure you tripped or did the person of that headstone trip you!? 😅I'm not superstitious either but I do believe in ghosts! IJS 👻🙃

[@Catherine3296]

I loved Gene Wilder films, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory was brilliant. Gilda was only 42 when she passed, They didn’t have long together did they. Very sad. Thank you Scott for this video.🤗🥰

[@williammartin2349]

I loved Stir Crazy, RIP Gene

[@SaxyCat-nz5nk]

Such a darling, apologising to the dead person whose headstone you tripped over...made me laugh. xx

[@katemaloney4296]

I was 5 when SNL aired and loved it! I loved it when Eddie Murphy, Martin Short, and Billy Crystal were on. And the 1986-1990 cast will live forever in my heart. Gilda, though, was something special. I remember where I was and what I was doing when the news came over the radio. In my life I've bowed my head four times and wept---Gilda was the first. I can honestly say that the world lost a bit of its sunshine when Gilda passed.

[@spitfirekev]

Gene Wilder was & always will be, one of my favourite actors of all time. Fantastic job done Scott, as always. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@annieanonymous611]

Love, love, love Gilda Radner. I feel a special affinity to her. Gene did some wonderful work when he lost her to start Gilda's Clubs to help women suffering from ovarian cancer. The two of them found something very very special. So sad they didn't have more time together. She'd no doubt of laughed at your out take at the end. Thank you for covering this. Loved the plaque 'Comedienne and Ballerina'. She had a good time :-)

[@behape_4evr]

My SNL ERA was definitely Gilda Radner, Steve Martin (wild and crazy guy) and many others. That is when I was a teen and started my SNL love. Which I still love it today!

[@wicketandfriendsparody8068]

17:14 I remember the day John Belushi died. They had live radio coverage when he was being rushed to the hospital. They thought he was choking on a chicken bone… :/ RIP John, Gilda and of of course GENE!!!¡¡¡ Thanks again Scott for covering the legends!¡ Your a trooper bruh :)

5:35 psychedelic haha, that’s Starry Night by Van Gogh, I think Vinny would’ve chuckled at that comment actually:)

[@LadyDragonsblood]

They loved each other so very much... I am glad they are together again in Heaven. Gene and Gilda were always the best of comedy... so funny but yet classy! Once again, Scott, so very good and so respectful. And on a small side note, SNL has never been the same since the Not Ready for Prime Time Players are gone.

[@andreadeamon6419]

I remember reading her book. Omg i cried through most of it.

[@angelanapier4248]

Gilda knew she was sick but was undiagnosed until it was too late. She was a wonderful woman, such a shame she left so soon. Gene should have been with her, she was the love of his life. The original cast was the best

[@EuniceStone-s9j]

Gilda did not die in vain. He case brought to the forefront the use of CT scan in gynecology cases. A CT scan saved my daughter in laws life. I have no doubt. She had uterine and ovarian cancer that had spread to her omentum (the fatty lining before the muscles of the stomach). God bless Gilda.

[@BlondeRockChick]

Ty for showing us their resting place. Their house and garden looks amazing. He sure loved her and she him. It’s sad how cruel life can be for some it seems. True love they should have had many years together than what they got. At least though they did get it. Some live a lifetime and don’t have a soul to live them half of what They had. I found Gene to be an amazing man. He didn’t move on or remarry that’s how much he loved her..❤❤ wonderful couple wish more were like these two!

[@intertubicular]

They were both greats of entertainment. Gilda Radner as "Roseanne Roseannadanna" I remember well from SNL. Classic! Very sad her life was cut short from being sick with cancer. She would have done so much more in entertainment. Gene was a legend as well. The end of a comedy era. I had to stop your video and look closely at 13:39. I thought marijuana was growing around the tree. I counted the leaves and ruled that out. Thanks for the video, Scott.

[@people_watcher]

Somehow I never knew they lived in Stamford, my hometown. They were both funny and wonderful people. Great video Scott

[@sharondyott6510]

I love the original cast that what I grew up with. It's hard to believe it's been so long. The talent that comes out of all the casts over the years is amazing . All my favorites came from Saturday night live. We all can remember certain skits like " more cow bell!" And may other that left us laughing so hard . The ones who are no longer here are in our collective memories living still making us laugh with the characters they portrayed. Those who have gone on to do bigger and better things we still enjoy . So much talent so many funny people love them all. ❤

[@audgester]

I loved Gene in Blazing Saddles and all of his other roles. Gilda was so funny too, she had awesome characters on SNL. What a beautiful home and nice gravesite for them.

A funny story came to mind when you said everyone loved Gilda. My aunt- not so much. She lived below her in an apartment in LA, I believe. it was after SNL, but Gilda was going to tap dance in whatever her next venture was at the time. She would tap dance waayyy into the night/ early morning and kept my aunt up all night. Seems like my aunt complained, but nothing was done. It's ok, though. It was Gilda after all, and we do love her and Gene Wilder! ❤ RIP
