Freddie Green's Grave Site
Following the March 6,
1987 memorial service in Manhattan, Freddie Green was brought to rest at
Pinelawn Memorial Park, in Farmingdale, NY (Long Island). Among other
notable musicians buried at this cemetery are John Coltrane and Freddie's
long time employer and close friend Count Basie. Below is a photo of
the memorial that marks the location. In 2000, Freddie was joined by
one of his daughters, Ruby Holmes. Many thanks to Tom
Smith for locating the marker and supplying this photo.
