Grave Location Description

Turn left into entrance of the cemetery near the pond. Follow the widest road past two smaller mausoleums toward the back until you come to the Memorial Abbey. Enter through the front doors and go up a short flight of steps toward the receiving area and take the first hallway on the left. Fifty feet down on your left, third row from the bottom you will find several “Moorehead” crypts as she is buried next to her parents (who lived in Dayton).
