In this vlog, I visit the gravesite of actor James Dean, at Park Cemetery, in Fairmount, Indiana.
I also visit his birthplace, in Marion, Indiana and his mother Mildred Dean's gravesite, at Grant Memorial Park Cemetery, in Marion, Indiana.
Also in Fairmount, I visit James Dean's Gallery and Museum, his memorial park, his childhood home, and various other James Dean landmarks and historic sites.
I also review my Super 8 motel room in Gas City, Indiana.
Thanks for joining me on another nostalgic road trip to the cemetery.

Steve, I'm a military brat. My Dad also served in Vietnam. He came home, but was never the same. Much respect to you for honoring Richard Wayne Wood. Be safe in your travels. Think I'll watch a few James Dean films today🍀

I always think of that song by the Eagles "James Dean" and that line.....along came a spyder and picked up a rider and took Him down the road to eternity....what a great little song.

Hello! Living in Germany, I visited many cemeteries in europe. Unfortunately I am not allowed to fly anymore for medical reasons. So you gave me the trip of dreams which I can't do anymore. As a teenager I had my room full of James Deans Posters and really adored him. As you said, he will never grow to be old. He will always be "the rebell". I will turn 60 (I hope) and so your trip was my trip. I do thank you for that!

Yes, I have been to Fairmount. Back in 1990. We visited the cemetery, the museum, the cycle shop, and we snuck into his old high school, which was closed down. And we visited his high school drama teacher who was in a nursing home. Sweet elderly lady. One of the best trips I have ever had.

Hello again Steve, couple of comments. I only watch you, graveyard guy and your referral of Retty for fun when watching gravestones and history of people. I choose and limit time watching as life and animals need attention. Your momma must have been young when she had you. I am about a year older and my momma was born in 1918 and I was her first surviving child. How different it is when ladies are blessed with children. Another wonderful video thank you for sharing. I also live in one of those tiny farm towns and it suits me. County seat 1587 people and county about 5000.

What I really like about your channel is the fact that you often not only visit the graves but also give us a lot of backgrounds of the person you visit. What is a bit sad about James Dean, is the fact that he only became famous after his death and that many people profit of it after he has been long gone. Thank you again for this great upload and have a wonderful weekend.

Great video Steve. We live maybe 3 hours away from this site but have never been to his grave. Thank you for showing some of the museum very cool. It was great that you were able to locate his Mom's grave. Your hotel looked like it might have been pretty quiet. Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason about pricing at hotels . We have stayed in hotels that have buffet hot breakfasts but if you stay in the same hotel in another city you might get a donut and coffee. I think it depends on the owners. I really appreciate all the extra's that you include in your videos. Sorry that the weather didn't cooperate but you did get alot of great footage. We look forward to seeing new videos from you. Take care and happy travels- Chris and Dave :-)

Hi Steve, great video. Just an FYI, In the mid 80's there was a different stone on his grave. It was not that big. It just had his name and a birth and death year. It was the size of his mom's marker. They go thru multiple headstones because people steal them. The original stone disappeared not too long after his death. They have had some huge James Dean celebrations. It is interesting reading about them. You would not believe the movie stars who have come to Indiana for the celebrations. Wish I would have known you were coming. I live roughly three hours north from where you were in Notre Dame country, South Bend, IN. I have been in Fairmont a few times but never during James Dean Memorial weekend. When I was there his high school was still standing but condemned I believe. It was sad because it was very run down so there were things put up for peoples protection.

I can't imagine what kind of person would steal a headstone. it hadn't occurred to me that other stars have visited his grave, but that makes sense. maybe we will both make it to the jd weekend one of these years. thanks, Kathleen!

Fantastic video Steve. Indiana boy here who has never been to Farmount or Marion. You do a great job in researching the subjects of the video tours which reveal interesting people-to-people connections that would otherwise not be apparent. IMO your honoring the Vietnam veteran in the video told me a lot about your characeter. You are a class act.

Talented performer who died much too young. Like many people in his generation he drove much too fast.

23 years old and no experience operating a very powerful lite weight race car on a public roadway and not on a closed track designed for high speeds and cars like his. Ran in to a mook named Pumpkinseed and that's all,she wrote.

My husband and I both have family in Indiana. Maybe next time we are in the area, we will check out the cemetery. You should come to Illinois sometime and visit the grave of Abraham Lincoln and check out his Museum.

I stop on my way back to Michigan from Tn, make sure you turn right at the 4 way stop !, there gas station right in front, the cemete ry is a mile or two down the road on your left, I was surprised what condition his grave was in, the cemetery is beautiful, but he could use a little grass and care....RIP James..Nice job Steve

Another awesome video, Steve! It's funny that I have been all over Indiana during my driving career, have delivered head stone markers to Kokomo, Indiana twice, but it was so hard to drive over to Marion and Fairmont with the semi tractor/trailer, just to go visit those places which you had the honor in visiting! Could you imagine, me driving the semi and pulling that 53' trailer just to see James Dean's grave... LOL... glad you had a great vacation trip!

lol, that would have been something to see. especially trying to drive it on the dirt/gravel roads in the cemetery. i love that you delivered head stones! thanks, les!
