Unfortunately, the majority of those young guys died due to gang relationship or robbery. I lived in Chicago in the 90's and lost quite a few friends to those reasons. RIP
I was born and raised in Chicago. I'm in North Carolina now but ready to get out of here. Chicago has really got bad but I still have my street smart yet.
Don't feel sorry for not one dying by streets / gangs they chose to be involved in. The innocent people caught in the cross fire is where my heart goes.
Another great video Lamont. The rest of the country hears about the problem of gun violence in Chicago, but they rarely get to see a name or a face to go with the tragic story. And sadly the biased media in my perception still doesn’t think that black on black violence is that big of a deal. Well, no matter what color you are, all life matters and is precious.
You know we must keep fathers in the home. Why does the government persist on separating families.? They tried doing that to my mom and dad when I was growing up. Dad got laid off and we had no money. And the only way they would give Mom food they said Daddy left. but my parents refuse to do that! So many young people have died. Prayers for all.
I really enjoy your work. My father is buried in Chicago, I had no idea there were so many cemeteries in Chi-town. If you make it to Rose Hill it’s lovely. Look for the Schwinn family plot.
I appreciate all the time and effort you put into your video’s and especially taking the time to research the incidents of the how and why’s. Thanks man. I’m off to sud!
My family still live in Chicago,1of my brothers was shot in the face but survived,a great nephew was found dead of gunshots....his name was DeAndre smith
What a sad waste of our youth what is wrong with these young folks ..running around and shooting each other all the time ..they dont give it a second thought
I love these because alot of them no longer get thought of. I myself have set up my arrangements. At the moment I have the ashes of 6 dogs, my mommas ashes, will have my dads, and more dogs if that's Gods will. All of the urns will be placed in the casket with me and I have a beautiful spot, in a very beautiful place indoors. We all will be together forever.
God bless you, Lori! I pray you are blessed with a long life, well lived and loved. I have my papa's ashes and my little dog, Maggie May, I understand what they mean to you.💝
@@kimsmith819 I'd be happy if I got to heaven and my Border Collies herded me to meet the rest of my family on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge. C.S. Lewis mentioned that our pets will be in heaven before we get there.
My mother is buried here and I come here often. Where she is buried use to be lots of Grandmothers and Grandfathers buried nearby, now it's so many young men it's a shame.
I absolutely love your videos. It’s great to finally find a group of people that love cemeteries as much as I do. My kids think I’m crazy lol. Keep up the great work!!
So sad to see graves of those who passed on March 31st, gets me thinking while I was celebrating another year someone out there was leaving this earth and a family was devastated and that my birthday will hold a painful memory to someone else somewhere in the world ... 😔
Well, you have to figure that no matter how you may feel....EVERYONE in the world has had countless people born or deceased on their birthday. It is sad, but it is a fact of life.
So very sad. The news covered the high murder rate of Chicago frequently. You added the reality of it, the heartwrenching loss for families, the waste of life. Bless you for bringing their stories to light.
0:57 Dear Arrington, those of us born in 87 are 35 years old now and most of us are parents. Sad you died when we were all just 2years old💔wish you stayed longer
Another great video Lamont, your job would be alittle hard for me as far as the research that you do finding out how the mostly young people died, I'd pray for their souls no matter how long they'd been gone. Thanks for your hard work, and caring for the birds, and caring for the ones who have gone on. God bless you. 😊
Everytime a passed persons name is mentioned or observed on the stones brings those individuals back to life for a few moments. Once the names are forgotten the people go back to obscurity. So it's a wonderful thing that you do Lamont. I wonder if our names will be mentioned a hundred years from now.
Hey Lamont! You should do Rosehill cemetery, my entire family is buried there, and it’s pretty haunted, with a lot of stories, and very old crypts and graves! This one is awesome also!
Elijah Kimbrough III is (my Father In Law) my Husband's Father's 🥰🥰!! He passed away from Diabetes, he fought a long battle but it won 😥 Thank you for visiting him!!
I did see the murder of LaQuan... It was awful!!. I had never seen it b4 and surprisingly, I was unaware of the murder until now. I live in another state and at that time, I was working on a heavy project and wasn't watching the news much. Thanks for bring his story forward and visiting his grave.
The National Gun Memorial is also a resource you can use to find information as well as Find a Grave. On both websites you can leave flowers ( F A Grave) or light a candle (NGM).
It’s amazing how you look and read tombstones and wonder each one of they life stories. To wonder how the deceased passed away and how they lived they life. Just so many stories that you won’t get a chance to hear or have told
I love how a 19 yr old dies, yet the family puts his 2 yr old photo on the headstone. I guess there's no sense in showing a photo of what he turned into at 19.......SMH
Hey Lamont, great video. Sad though so many young people. How do u remember all the information on all these graves, to tell us. Do u have it written down, I would forget. U gave us alot of information on these graves. Great job luv watching them.
There is a face in the top left corner of BennieCisco Langston the 3 tombstone! Is it supposed to be there or am I seeing something strange go back and look at the first person he talks about a tombstone you will see it!
My condolences goes out to all those that passed away so soon 😢 💔 and the 👮♂️ that killed laquan Jr McDonald in prison you got what you deserve racist jerk 😢 💔 rip laquan fly free like a 🕊 🙏 🤲
And no offense for normal person for murdering somebody they get 25 to life cops should be getting the same prosecution as a citizen does not on the force he shouldn't be getting months should be getting years taken away from his life because he took the life of somebody that b*******
It’s really sad all those young people dying so young. It makes no sense why people think solving issue with guns gangs are not cool !! And it do t make u look tough it makes a coward thanks Lamont for another great video be save out there
Too bad Lamont couldn't find the grave of the 17 year old female assassin, Gakirah Barnes. Killed by a local rapper's crew as she was hunting him. Killed her first victim at age 14 and suspected by police in 4 or 5 other shootings and killing. Chicago Sun-Times reported the 'street' said she was involved in 15 shootings.
Chicago, like virtually every city around the country in decay just like Chicago, has one thing in common: all have been under Democrat control for decades.
Can you tell me what happened to him the richly what happened to him do you know any papers about him don't almost like the papers are gone now can you tell me about the papers about him what happened to him
