The 2002 Graveside Ceremony for James Dean
Remember, I’ll add names and facts later. NEW photos added November 2, in middle of page. Tom Berghuis’s name is corrected November 4. Thanks to Mark Kinnaman for catching the name error.
Naomi Yamada made, by hand, the One Thousand Cranes tribute to Jimmy and brought it from Japan for this moment.
I tried to do a panorama of all the fans this year.
In front on the right, as promised, TOM Berghuis, co-moderator of the service standing in stead for our beloved Adeline Mart Nall.
Nicky Bazooka accepted the trophy for being Grand Marshall of the 2001 parade. He didn’t stick around long enough last year! It looked dangerous for him to ride away with the trophy bungeed onto his Harley. He doesn’t even wear a helmet. (Kids, don’t try this at home.)
Hot new rockin’ band, Phil and The Lookalikes.
Jimmy’s father and stepmother lie beside him. Marcus and Ortense Winslow, who raised Jimmy, rest on the other side of him.
The back side of the stone.
Pam Crawford and the front of the headstone.
This arrangement of peach roses and other flowers came from James Dean Remembered, the official fan club for James Dean.
