THIS STORY:
It was June 11, 1966.
"There was a picnic grove and local Cub Scout groups had gathered. You could hear the laughter as the kids played games like baseball, running races and sack races. Hot dogs, pop and ice cream was served. Many happy faces, a typical picnic of that time.
Being young adventurous kids, a friend and I followed a dirt trail into the woods. The trail ran parallel to a branch of the Chicago River. It ended at an embankment up to a train trestle. We sensed danger and turned back. Four little girls came the opposite way, passed us, and headed straight to the trestle. Then we heard an approaching hum and felt the rumble below our feet.
There was no way the engineer could stop the train. A couple of other kids ran back to the grove to call out for help. A few fathers ran down the trail to see what had happened. Panic ensued as the mothers in the grove scrambled to find and gather their children...."

The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.
