Even without the two very famous graves this is a fascinating cemetery. But we didn't have time for a thorough visit and started with Muhammad Ali and Colonel Sanders.
The Colonel and his wife, Claudia.
There are many unique sculptures here and "Mr. Magic" is definitely an eye-catcher. Harry Leon Collins was the official Frito Lay Corporate Magician.
The Elks Lodge bought a plot for its members.
Samuel de Haven was a judge and government representative.
The Peaslee plot has a sphinx.
The three Bilharz daughters each have a head.

The Finzer brothers were tobacco industrialists and ran Five Brothers Tobacco Works.
George and Mary Lee Duthie have a skinny St. Francis above them.
Nicola Marschall was an artist of the Confederacy.
Bennett has a bronze winged horse.
I couldn't find any information on this one.
Take a stroll or a ride through this almost 300 acre cemetery and arboretum the next time you're in Louisville, Kentucky. It's a lovely place.
