You can park along the roadside and walk up to her brick house and commune with her there. You can also walk up to the “home for the aged” building where I believe she moved when she became too frail to care for herself—my understanding is that she died in that “home for the aged,” which she founded.

Not normally open on a Monday but they may well be open on Memorial Day, def call or email. Remember to arrive about 10 minutes before the hour to get the guided tour.
