_________________________________________________________
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.

My father died 20 years ago at 48. My mother and him had been together 30 year's then. He wanted to be cremated and buried with Mom instead of being buried and us moving on in life and not being with her wherever life took us. Mother is now 67 and when it's time to bury her my daddy will be buried with her and his headstone will be with her's. ❤

That is how we buried my mom and dad. Dad went first. Mom about 20 years later. All children and grandchildren sat under the trees, near my daddy's grave, waiting while they removed the grave slab. There was a space left on the grave stone, for mommy's name. Everything was so peaceful....then we buried mom's ashes with dad, held hands in a circle around the grave and said a prayer, thanking God for our parent's love. It was so special😢

Also, why do you blacks always complain about us whites using tanning salons when we do NOT go and get burnt and turn black. We go and get a light bronze color on our skin, which is definitely not what you blacks look like bc y’all are actually black like we can’t see y’all in the dark if you don’t wear bright colors. Plus while y’all are crying about us whites getting a tan in which we’ve always had tans from the beginning of time by going outside, ALL of you blacks women are wearing wigs that resemble European hair. Why do you blacks wear fake hair made to look like us whites hair? Y’all aren’t allowed to do that bc that’s “cultural appropriation”! Lmao! How dumb!

At his death in 1993, he was buried in a coffin holding/cradling in his arms - her urn. Together - forever. I hope to be able to do this with my female life partner.

I absolutely love the epithet on the gravestone! May we all remember that our Lord created ONE FLESH, from which ALL of humanity descends! When we die we return to the dust from which we were created, and the dust sees not and heeds not skin color or “race”. The dust neither differentiates nor discriminates but embraces all who are reunited with it. While we still live we should strive to do as the dust does, never forgetting that our Creator loves and cherishes us equally.

Beautiful story Ron. Sadly there is no pictures of them. He loved her unconditionally. I have no problem with this. Just imagine the ones we don't know and probally will never know. Today couples are more free to express thier love. Not just blacks and white but other races too. I don't judge anyone. It has happened in my own family. They was accepted and loved as such. It's sad how much hatred. Prejudice and racism there is. No racism and prejudice is not the same. Some hate thier own color and that's not racist. No mix marriage is not always accepted, still frowned upon. But back then when slavery was legal. There was no way would they have been allowed to marry. It was hidden. She could be his lover his servant, his slave, but not his wife. Many would of thought nothing of that because it was ok to bare the masters children. The slaves had no say. Frankly I don't think prejudice and racism is going to go away. Not in my lifetime. This man did not hide his love for this woman. Brave man. Braver still was the man who made sure they was buried together.👍👏👏👏another great vlog and story Ron. You keep surprising us.🙂.I look forward to your next video.

Love the comments on the stone. No truer statement has ever been made. He surely was a true friend, knowing all the harassment he could and probably did get. Love knows no bounds. I was glad to see he used the word servant rather than slave. Even at that he could of just said, he lies two people who loved each other. But anyway it is beautiful, and a beautiful story. Thanks Ron. Safe travels.

My son is pale skin 200 plus pound. Had the same live in girl wife friend for 3 years. Shes a dark as the moonless night. 115 lbs. Theres is a love made in heaven and of the heart. Perfect for each other. Their only social challenge is from those who think theyre better than everyone else. Not these youngsters just simpler and loving to all especially to each other

This was a beautiful love story. It is unfortunate that race was an issue for them. Sadly, there still are segregated cemeteries. Plant City, FL (just outside of Tampa) still has segregated cemeteries. We are all God's children. God sees no color just love for us all. Love is love.

They could have claimed master/servant because it was the only ‘acceptable’ solution if she was aware he was a man of some status. This would have meant that neither would be accosted or harassed. It was common in the upper south
