Death
Gillette died in Los Angeles, California, and was interred in the lower levels of the Begonia Corridor in the Great Mausoleum located at Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery in Glendale, California. He was almost bankrupt at the time of his death, due both to his having spent large amounts of money on property, and to his having lost much of the value of his corporate shares as a result of the Great Depression.

the spirit bird of hope is freed for flying,

O sing this Easter Day, for Jesus Christ has risen!”

What dreadful noise of waters in my ears!
What sights of ugly death within my eyes!”
