It's a popular attraction but not one that would come to mind immediately as place you'd want to visit. Sandy Starks might change your mind about that. She's been creating and presenting tours at Forest Lawn Cemetery for two decades. She's always enjoyed the place saying "I used to hang out here all the time when I was in High School"

What's not to like? Forest Lawn is picturesque, serene and contains some of the most amazing architecture anywhere in Western New York. According  to Sandy "We are number two on things to do in Buffalo on Trip Advisor"

Many visitors are facinated by the famous folks found here including: Millard Fillmore, Rick James and Shirley Chisholm. Among the 165 thousand permanent residents, you will discover the inventor of air conditioning, the rotary snow plow and the electric chair.

More info about all of the tours can be found at the Forest Lawn web site
