JAMES MASON grave site and former home in Switzerland

James Mason's grave and former home in Switzerland. The three time Accademy Award nominated British actor died in hospital in Switzerland in 1984, following a heart attack at his home. After a 15 year leagal battle between his widdow and his children from his 1st marriage his ashes were finaly burried close to the grave of his good friend, Charlie Chaplin. In this video I also visit the location of James Mason's Swiss home, the memorial to him in Switzerland and the church where his funeral took place.
The following quote is on James Mason's grave:
"Never say in grief you are sorry he's gone. Rather, say in thankfulness you are grateful he was here" - US Senator Ted Kennedy
