Resting Places-Sir Alec Guinness - Petersfield Cemetery-Petersfield -Hampshire.

Resting Places
Written By Edgeland Observer

After finally not missing the turning into the cemetery for the 17th time, I was finally here to See Alec Guinness, sorry, Sir Alec Guinness but to me, always George Smiley.

Buried alongside his wife Lady Merula, he sits in a nice spot, surrounded by chattering sparrows. There were some Lego Obi Wan Kenobi figures tucked behind the daffodils and I did hope for a Russian doll but it wasn’t to be.

Besides him being George Smiley amongst hundreds of other roles he is also my favourite in A Christmas Carol as Jacob Marley’s ghost and Professor Marcus in The Ladykillers.

Sir Alec Guinness-Actor-2nd April 1914- 5th August 2000.
