Who was the woman who was buried in a ferrari and where?

Question

I think her name was Sandra West. Her husband was killed in an accident in the same car. She put it in storage to be used as her coffin with her sitting behind the wheel in a night gown.

Answer 1

9. SANDRA ILENE WEST (1977). Buried seated at the wheel of a Ferrari

Thirty-seven-year-old Sandra West, according to her request, was buried in her baby-blue 1964 Ferrari. The seat was placed at a comfortable slant and West was wearing her favorite lace nightgown. According to court instructions, West and her automobile were interred in a large box and covered over with two truckloads of cement to discourage vendals.

There is a lot of information on the web and most of it is different. Most of it said, though, that the grave is in San Antonio, Texas. Ms. West was an oil heiress, which is apparently how she could afford a Ferrari in the first place.

Answer 2

You are somewhat correct. Sandra West was buried in a Ferarri wearing a nightgown, but the car was hers (not her husband's). It was a baby-blue 1964 Ferarri and she was placed in the driver's seat (adjusted to a "comfortable angle") in her nightgown. The car was then surrounded with two truckloads of cement to discourage vandals.
Ms. West's remains can be found in San Francisco, California.
