The Untimely Passing of Marilyn Monroe
This is a site about the most rememberable legend of our time. She is still in our hearts and minds even into the new millenium and the 21st century. Born 75 yrs ago this June was an angel. A screen legend, a beauty, and and lost soul. I believe she is loved more in death than she was in life. I am a huge fan & collector of Marilyn. I have been fascinated with her since I was 14. She glows when you look at her photos, her smile and her spirit can light up any room.
It was a dreadful shame to have her taken from us at such an early age. (36)Her life cut short by what I believe was murder. No one really believes Marilyn killed herself. I don't believe we will ever know what really happened. Only she, alone in death knows who killed her.
Marilyn's Crypt in Westwood Park, Calif.
Lee Strasburg wrote the eulogy for Marilyn's funeral. There were over two thousand fans there that day @ Westwood. He said:
"She had a luminous quality- a combination of wistfulness, radiance, yearning -to set her apart and yet made everyone wish to be apart of it, to share in the childish naivete which was once so shy and yet so vibrant."
