The final resting place of Louise McCaleb is at the lower level of the Abbey Mausoleum at Rose Hill Burial Park. She shares a crypt with her husband Burt. To visit Louise and Burt's crypt, enter the Abbey Mausoleum from the north (across the street from the office). Take the stairs to the lower level, then face right. Take an immediate right, and head down the long hallway that runs north-south. Pass the first hallway on your right, and continue to the second right hallway, which is almost to the end. Turn right into this hallway, and the crypt is on your immediate left (2nd column, very top level).
Louise McCaleb's first husband Oscar died at the young age of 34-35, only 10 years after they married, and about 72 years before her. Her second husband, Burt, preceded her in death by 37 years.
