Sparkman-Hillcrest Memorial Park
7405 W. Northwest Highway, Dallas, Texas
I visited the SHMP today to find Judge Sarah Hughes and a few other notable people. After roaming the mausoleum for some time, I had to ask for help locating Judge Hughes. Upon returning to the SHMP receptionist another visitor has their car broke into and their purse stolen. The lot is close to the sidewalk and Northwest Highway. I checked my Yukon for any damage and there wasn’t any. One of the receptionists said her purse was still in her car. I can’t believe that two women in the same location think it is acceptable to leave a purse in plain site in a car.
I had to fill out a form to get information on the location of Judge Hughes. I was met by Donna Titus in the mausoleum. Judge Hughes is interred near the east chapel in the Adoration niche along the back hall. She is with her husband.
Other notables found were Algur Meadows (SMU), Mickey Mantel, Mary Kay Ashe, Greer Garson, Tom Landry and William Lee “Pappy” O’Daniel (Texas Gov.). Other notables not found include W.W. Caruth (SMU), John Erik Jonsson (TI), Jack St. Clair Kilby (TI) and Eugene McDermott.
