No other actress has ever had the notoriety and fame or stirred the emotions quite like Marilyn Monroe. She was a legend in her own time and that legend has only grown since her untimely death. Not only was her rise to fame epic, but her personal life was a tale fit for the silver screen filled with torrid love affairs that included a president, drugs, scandal, tragedy, conspiracy and a mysterious death. Such a tumultuous life is hard to completely snuff out and perhaps Marilyn Monroe's spirit continues to live on in the afterlife.  Not just in our memories, but as a spirit still walking among us. Join us for the life and afterlife of Marilyn Monroe.

Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum is located at 4521 Spring Grove Avenue in Cincinnati, Ohio. Horticulturist Adolph Strauch pioneered the "lawn plan" design when Spring Grove was established in 1845. This was a continuing effort to keep graveyards beautiful and inviting. This cemetery is the final resting place for many of Cincinnati's prominent historical figures and a living tree museum. The interior architecture has lead to it being recognized as a US National Historic Landmark.
