Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Someone was asking today if we knew where Dale Earnhardt , Sr. was buried.

Being aware that our family knew Dale it was thought that we would know something of the undisclosed location of his burial site.

The location is on property owned by Dale Earnhardt , Inc. in Mooresville , NC and quite some distance from the DEI GarageMahal.

You can view the site from this satellite imagery. The link is :

What you are seeing is a large fenced area , evergreen trees lining the inside perimeter , a gate entry and walkway to the monument.

I have always been very disappointed in Teresa that she chose to keep Dale hid away from the millions who loved him. I think Dale is dis-satisfied , too , with this and a lot more.

Take a look at this soleum location in a field and then make a mental comparison to what fans of Elvis have in Graceland.

Your thoughts appreciated ...

This seems rather selfish ! But Teresa seems that way to me .

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Here is a thought for all, maybe she is respecting his wishes by having it this way:idea:

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

What is selfish about privacy. Let the man RIP.

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Agreed BTF:thumb

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

If I recall... Sr. was an avid hunter... Looks like he found a nice place for it.

IMO... the people that are selfish are the fans(fanatics) that think Dale Sr.'s burial site is something they should be allowed to go visit. I kinda understand family wanting to visit but FANS??? That just seems crazy to me.

If you've ever seen Jim Morrison's grave, you would understand Bill's thoughts on this matter.

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Exactly. Even the most well meaning individuals would turn it into some kind of circus. Let him go.

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Where are Adam and Kenny's graves located?

The disapointing thing is how they exploited his death and forgot about the others

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

If the Kenny you are asking about is Irwin, Jr. then I can advise that his grave is located here in Fishers, IN on Allisonville Road just north of 96th Street. I have a dear friend who is buried about 100 yards away and stop by his site every once in awhile. :(

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Kenny Irwin , Jr. is buried in the Oaklawn Memorial Gardens Cemetery , Allisonville Road , Indianapolis.

Adam Petty was cremated and the remains were presented to the parents.

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

I Just Have To Say Dale Earnhardt Is My Idle And Always Will Be. But Where Tereasa Had Him Buried Disgust Me Cause Earnhardt Has Always Been Known To Love Beeing Around The Fans. Just To Show Him Respect He Shouldve Been Buried In A Local Semetary That Way He Would Be With All Of His Fans.

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

I somehow think the name Earnhardt will be associated with WWIII.

If not from the way overhyped JR Nation, Then because of the continuous pimping on SR's legacy.

Let the man R.I.P

Chuck, WHAT ARE YOU SMOKIN' DUDE ??????????????



Bill has this one nailed!

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

This is a very strange topic, but I like strange topics. It's kind
of like goin' to a races. It's kind of a Circus and the strangest
people show up.

1) John F. Kennedy is the most visited Burial Site at Arlington
Cemetary. He gets over a million visitors a year. Why do
you think people go? Probably out of respect for a man they
truely cheerished. A man that gave them hope and a reason
for living.

2) I wonder if that's one the reason Racing Fans would go see Sr.
Maybe it's out of respect and cherishment for a man that
they truely loved and who gave them a reason for living.


3) Princess Diana is buried in a private cemetery. But it is open
a few times a year for visitors, I think.

4) I think Dale Earnhard Sr, Princess Diana and John Fitzgerald
Kennedy would be amazed at all the people who want to
visit their burial sites. Then again I think it is amazing that
one man or one woman could do so much for so many.


Larry "O" and God Bless and we will be hoping and praying
for Marty Boyer. Get well, soon!:wink

Well, I hope that you're not a "typical" Earnhardt fan.... your spelling, grammar, and poor use of english certainly do NOT reflect or represent what I consider "fans" of Sr's.....Why don't you build a "shrine" on your land, and then you can deal with everyone traipsing across your property?.....

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Hey Not Everybodies English Is Proper Or The Spelling So Just Leave It At That

Re: Dale Earnhardt , Sr. Grave Site Location Discussed
 

Im a fan of many racers I consider as good or even better than Earnhardt. Many are not with us any more. They were never my IDOL's a word way over used and to me is reserved for my parents, Service Personel and Jesus Christ.

Dale Earnhardt isn't even close to that catagory but as with those previously mentioned, They had my respect and even amazement at what they could do in a Race Car.

I was a fan of Big E as well as Jarrett and many others but some of this stuff is rediculous. What I meant by Pimping Sr. was the continued making millions off his death. Buy this Gold Coin for 79.95 ect. If you ask me to send a donation in his name to a charity. I got no problem but someones laughing all the way to the bank.
