Getty to be buried in California after death in England
Oil billionaire J Paul Getty dies at 83 in Sutton Place near London. He will be buried in California where he lived, with his will largely leaving the bulk of his fortune to charity. He is survived by 16 grandchildren and one great grandchild, and Harold Berg to head Getty Oil Co. until a successor is chosen. The Malibu estate includes a $20 million museum housing a $200 million art collection opened in 1974.
