Second husband of Bette Davis. He was originally buried in Lisbon, N.H. and moved to Evergreen Cemetery in June 1945. Farnsworth died from injuries sustained in a fall two months prior to his death. Apparently he had slipped on stairs and fractured skull but didn't know it. The fall caused a slow bleed, causing his fall on the sidewalk in Hollywood. Inquest to foul play was halted upon receiving this information.

As fine a guy as ever walked the plains,
sailed the seas or flew through space.
