Re former Cemetery memorials:
 
In Ventura, CA, an historical cemetery  once used to inter Native  
Americans, Civil War veterans, Chinese, and others is presently used as a dog  park 
- to the consternation of some descendants.  Some, but not all, of the  
burials have been removed. There is a standing stone memorial attesting its  
former use.
 
In Los Angeles, the  Evergreen Cemetery has a  massive shrine  dedicated in 
2010 as a memorial to the many Chinese buried there.  It has  replicas of 
two of the traditional burners flanking a central monument.
