We took a recent road trip to Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland, Ohio. There are so many stunning headstones in this cemetery!
I’m sharing a new video series “Walking Through Cemeteries” available on my YouTube channel. Be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss them!
This headstone, known to many as “the man with the guitar,” is Sergey Gaidaenko (1963 - 2010) who lived in South Euclid, Ohio.
Watch the video below:
According to the Lake View Cemetery website, Sergey was an “unassuming family man of Ukrainian origins who loved to play the guitar for relatives and friends. His memorial shows a life-size, baldish man sitting on a bench just above Lake View’s Wade Chapel pond.”
It is also said that his wife commissioned a “likeness of him sitting in his favorite chair.” He was sculpted by Ivan Grigoriev.
Sergey is located at Lake View Cemetery Section: 5E, Lot: 579-0
