2010 Marilyn Memorial at Westwood

I wanted to pass along this information about this year's memorial service:

The 2010 Marilyn Monroe Memorial Service will begin at 11:00 on Thursday, August 5 at Westwood Memorial Park. A reception following the memorial service is currently being arranged. Information on the reception will be announced soon.  Visit http://marilynrememberedclub.blogspot.com for updates.

Marilyn Monroe Memorial Fund

Please help keep the legend of Marilyn Monroe alive by contributing to the Marilyn Monroe Memorial Fund. The Marilyn Remembered Fan Club, the entity arranging the memorial service since 1982, is offering fans around the world the opportunity to become personally involved in the memorial service by becoming a sponsor of the 2010 event. Please note that 100% of donations will be used to fund memorial service and reception expenses. The Marilyn Remembered fan club is charged a facility usage fee of $500 to hold the service in the chapel at Westwood Memorial Park, the same chapel where Marilyn's actual funeral services were held. Other expenses include memorial service program printing costs, flowers for the service and Marilyn's crypt, chairs for additional seating if needed, refreshments for the reception following the memorial service, etc.

Everyone donating to the Marilyn Monroe Memorial Fund will be acknowledged in the memorial service program.

How to Donate:

Donations can be sent via PayPal (www.paypal.com) to Greg Schreiner, Marilyn Remembered Fan Club President, at cgriffis55@ca.rr.com. A donation in the form of a check, money order or cash can be sent to Greg directly:

Fans attending the service have never been charged an entrance fee in the 25 year history of the Marilyn Remembered Fan Club. Please consider helping the club offset the costs of holding the service, renting the facility, and providing programs, etc. Your personal sponsorship will help keep the legend of Marilyn Monroe Alive.

Thank you!

  1. Hello,

    It's nice there are other Marilyn Monroe fans out there helping to keep her memory alive. Unfortunately, I'm between jobs now and cannot contribute. I would like to contribute as soon as I am employed again.

    I'm curious, how far back in time does this fan sponsored memorial service go back?

    Regards,
    Dan Jakubik
