The final shot of Green Gables is Lucy Maud Montgomery's gravesite. It sits in Cavendish Community Cemetery, just a stone's throw from the house at Green Gables. Even though Lucy married and moved away for many years, she visited often and said that this little place was her heaven on earth. It seems only fitting that her body continues to lie close to Green Gables, and, perhaps that is her voice in that whispering breeze that brushes past us when we walk down Lovers Lane or across the fields of her home, or even under the apple tree.
