Bob Pumphrey of Pumphrey's funeral home, handled the Fitzgeralds. F. Scott was originally in Ca. He was brought east and both he and Zelda were put in the Union Cemetery in Rockville (final resting place of baseball great Walter Johnson). The Catholic church initially would not allow them to be buried on sacred ground but eventually relented. Bob handled the arrangements at Union and St. Mary's. Laurie, you are correct. St. Mary's in downtown Rockville at Rockville Pike and Viers Mill Rd.
