Grove Hill Memorial Park is located in East Dallas, near Fair Park. This is one of the largest cemeteries in Dallas. I had to ask for assistance because they have more than 60,000 graves. I was assisted by Don at the front desk and Melody Rekieta.
Grove Hill Memorial Park is a few miles east of Fair Park in Dallas, Texas. There I found Dallas Police Chief Jesse Curry, businessman George Dealey and some old family friends, the Von Erichs. Blanch Barrow, mother of Clyde Barrow, is also buried somewhere at Grove Hill.

Von Erich Family
I went to school with Chris Adkinsson (a.k.a von Erich). We spend the forth and fifth grades together. At one point I got to meet, or at least me in the same room, with all the Von Erich family including David, Kevin, Kerry, Michael and their father Fritz.
