LOST STORIES FOUND - IMMIGRANTS.

Hi Ron I did some research on Margherit Muscia and her murder Mrs Minnie Miller performed a botched abortion on Margherita. Its a tragic story for all involved

Makes me grateful I had my son for 35 years. I know you also experienced this greatest of all griefs and can appreciate the immense heartache that prevailed. I believe it shortened many a survivor’s life. A broken heart is real. God bless you.

Aloha Ron! The collar you pointed out in one of the older photos reminded me of a story my Grandfather Victor told me. In Indiana was where he lived with his family. He was a young man in the 1920's( Born 1890- 1991). He said he wore "Shirt Collars" some men's fashion that kept your collar upright. He said he fell in love with my late Grandmother Jessie as she worked as a shop clerk. He saw her first when he went to buy a shirt collar. She had to climb up a ladder to reach them in the old-fashioned wooden shelving units of their general store. He said her legs were SO beautiful (from the view he got from below as she ascended the ladder), that he returned several times for MORE shirt collars before he asked her to Marry him. 😊

This has to be one of my favourite walkthroughs Ron. So amazingly poignant. It is like we are walking through history with time melting away while you do so. Thank you for remembering the forgotten.

I admire the respect that you always show for the deceased.

This may sound weird. But, the drone shots over the cemeteries when you fly low over the monuments and markers lends an haunting, spiritual aspect to videos like this. Always liked the drone shots of any kind on this channel.

Very hard times in the early 1900’s. So many babies never got the chance to grow up and have a good life. It’s very sad to see this. So much horrible illnesses around at that time period. Another great clip Ron, keep on bringing these peoples stories to life.

This is absolutely incredible how you inlayed these personal stories on to each stone. What a great touch that I've never seen done before. You know, I always watch these full screen on my tv because I get so involved in your stories. They are mesmerizing. I always miss the chat because of that though but tonight I had to get up and come over to my computer to donate because the way you did this just really touched me! Just incredible. Brings a tear to my eye. I think I'm just getting old because everything seems makes me cry these days. Oh, and the music in the background did me in .... carry on Captain!

Ron, you should have your own tv show. So none of this people are forgotten. Love your video, love your narration, love your story telling. Please don't ever quit doing this. You have inspired me to walk, my own people's cemetery... so many stories RIP

This was truly special Ron. To me it felt from the heart, the pictures, stories, and beautiful music, telling the stories of these people. They had the same emotions, highs and lows, joy and sorrows, as we do. This is why you do what you do Ron. Especially touching was the tender age of many, the babies and children, even young adults. Lives cut short, but because of you we heard some of their stories. Thank you Ron and Deb! 🎄❤️💚

These are the most touching pieces of your work. To not only look at their beautiful stones (and to me these are more beautiful than all the fancy stones of today ) but for you to bring them to life after years of being forgotten. I hope there is someone like you in a 100 years to bring our stories to life! ❤

This was an amazing walk & I found myself selfishly saddened to learn of your move. You've introduced me to so many beautiful cemeteries, this my favorite. I have to admit I teared up thinking you'll be so far away & not able to just stop by. The music is so beautiful. Thank you Ron. Thank you Deb. Chicagoland will truly miss your presence.

So sad but also so heartwarming. It would be great if these people knew they are being remembered.

Thank you for honoring what can be known of their stories. So so very tragic. How much we take for granted never having to face the kinds of heartaches and fears they have had to deal with. It’s understandable why people had large families. Life was fragile. We are so blessed today. Yes we too have serious issues but not like it was then when it was fairly common to lose several loved ones in a short time.

This is the best walk with the stories and pictures just brings them back to life Great job

Wow. Ron, thanks for sharing. When we see these cameos, those that have passed, they come alive. God bless them all! RIP Immigrant stories… I could start with my grandpa Franz S, he came to Canada in 1961, landing at Halifax. He brought with him his family and his car, a Borgwart Isabella, right hand drive from South Africa. He was a fine cabinet maker and a German Ww2 veteran, serving in France as an infantryman in a Luftwaffe field division. Coming to Canada for a better life. His youngest son my dad, died suddenly in 1993. A year that my grandparents never really recovered from. He told me many interesting stories about my great grandparents, and how life was like in Essen after WW1, the chaotic Weimar Republic and the notorious Hitler time. Grandpa died in 2011. Of all the grandchildren I was the favourite. I take care of the family grave to this day. The German community hardly exits in Montreal, Quebec to this day. It is dwindling. But, they are not forgotten. Ruhe in Frieden. RIP ❤

Great live today!! Waiting for another wonderful story...the best storyteller of all!!👏👍🏻😇

Beautiful, heart wrenching but powerful images here..what an incredible job you have done telling these stories..makes one very aware of what a fleeting thing life is..make it count. This is one of your very best! A happy, safe and healthy Christmas Ron..it has been a great year since I found your channel

Ron I too love this cemetery and will miss your walks amongst the passed on love ones here. Thanks to Deb for all the help that you provide Ron and the families of the dearly departed. Good luck with your move.

This was a brilliant post! For some reason, I am sad you are moving to Az. It’s nice having you nearby in Chicago, as I am in Milwaukee. I guess it made me sad that it may be your last visit to this cemetery. An awesome job by you and Deb.
