It is heartbreaking to see that the children and grandchildren didn't seem to want any of these treasures that meant so much to Mary and Elmer.
It make's me sad
They didn't even bother to do anything with the stuff or the house. Just left it all.
Too busy taking selfies
@@RetroCaptain ......
It's not the responsibility of Bros of Decay to do anything with all the things left. The children and grandchildren should have the decency and respect enough to at least remove personal items and photos. It's heart breaking to see all the photos left. I'd love to have photos of my grandparents and their life. Photos can now be scanned to computer then downloaded to a flash drive or thumb drive for keeping. It would be better than just leaving EVERYTHING to the elements.
Kids now days don't care about family pictures. Family history. Sad. New generation's. Most don't want their own baby pictures.
for some reason this one made me so sad for their children and grandkids to just leave it all in the house and just forget it
One day, another generation will want to know but it will be too late😢
Yes agree, but so nice to see this guy be so respectful and interested.
I just can't understand why people leave these places to just rot with no one caring enough to rescue their memories.So sad.
The hole in the wall in the downstairs half bath was most likely made by thieves steeling the copper pipes. The house made me so sad. Thanks for showing their memories!.
Yes I agree that the copper plumbing pulled out to sell for scrap metal.
Why or how can their Children or Grandchildren leave all those memories behind!!! Pictures are priceless and they will never be able to capture that time again, blows my mind!!! 🤷♀️🤦♀️
That's something I learned long before any abandoned videos were made.
We surround ourselves with items, but that's really all they are. It's the memories we make in life, we hold, no matter where we are.
I like the family photos, too bad they are left behind. If only children valued more their parents' loving memory...
Thank you for this nice video,guys! You're a great team, as always!
Before I’d pass judgement on the children, antecedents, I’d want to do a little more research-it’s possible they may have died sometime before Mary. First, I’d look for papers that may mention the illness/passing/funeral announcements, etc., of family members and so forth.
Perhaps even more saddening is that no one may ever read my comment here-or anyone else’s-concerning the family/events.
Not jus that the family thinks those pictures are there to stay i know i left a bunch back home and noone sent me them back:(after i lost mmy mom and her lousy so called husband.
Hello my name is Jenna Beale this is my great grandmothers home. She was placed in a nursing home and sadly passed away. There are multiple reasons why we had to leave the things and why the house is abandoned. We are not negligent and love our family very much. Please think before you make assumptions or comment rude things about the family. Please enjoy the memories as we did but respectfully, thank you.
I could never have too many photos of my loved ones!
Wow all those family pictures left is heartbreaking!
Same here, hi happy new year 🎉
I'm so glad you both explored this place and it wasn't destroyed yet. I watched another explorer at this house and people have trashed it. So so sad. I wish for a beautiful house like that for myself one day. I love you both and so special how you treat everyone's home with so much respect. She had cancer. Her paperwork is in the freezer.
I don't understand the need to trash someone's home, no matter they died 18 years ago. It was Mary and Elmer's home, it should have been respected as Lesley and Danny have done. I'm just glad I got to see it with the "Bros" and it was in such beautiful shape and it was left as they found it. Shame, shame, shame on those who disrespected their memories and trashed their home. 😪
@@joannegaughan6132 I been asking the same thing thru the years.:)?
The wall in the bathroom has been removed by someone who wanted to remove the copper pipe in the house , because copper can be sold for cash as it is a valuable metal.
Houses in the US have been built with clothes closets in the bedrooms since the early nineteen hundreds, unlike England where people buy a large piece of furniture to hang garments in that also had drawers. I forget what they call this piece , but it takes up a wall. Originally closet were small in bedrooms , but over time have gotten larger and larger.
The decor in this house has a lot of what was called Early American style. Very popular in the 1950’s. Those lamps that look like the old oil lamps are an example early American style.
I hope she wasn’t left alone with dementia, even with notes. I had a neighbor with dementia who wandered off.
One morning, very early, I heard a knock at my back door and there was Mr. Bolte and he was crying. I asked him what was wrong, thinking maybe his elderly wife had passed and he needed help. I brought him inside and then he asked me if I knew where he lived. He’d gone for his customary morning walk and couldn’t remember where his house was. If he’d walked a little further he may have seen his house and recognized it, but I am glad he recognized my house and stopped to ask for help. I have to admit it made me cry too. He was always so sweet to my sons, chatting with them through the fence. I walked him next door to his house and checked on him regularly after that.
I had an elderly man show up at my back fence- I have rural acreage and just happened to be nearby. He had come about a mile down a mountain through the bush. I bundled him into my truck and prayed to God he could show me where he lived, and he did. The daughter was in the yard distraught, and grateful. I realised afterwards that many people would have called police, creating most likely a huge problem for the family. Years ago another neighbour, who I already knew, showed up at the local store where I was working- he couldn't remember how to get back home. It's life I suppose. Heavens, and the man who called me at the store to tell me he thought he had had a stroke as he couldn't get out of his chair, ever so polite he was, but interesting that his first thought was to call someone he knew rather than the ambulance. These kind of communities are sadly dying out :(
I’m glad to hear someone comment on how nice those old ovens are. My mom had a similar Kenmore when I was a kid and got rid of it when the glass top trend came along, but still complains about missing the old Kenmore oven. They would run forever and were designed to be repaired.
I've got to say that I cry almost every time I watch your videos, and that's no disrespect to you Lesley and Denny. But I imagine in my head all these happy people living their lives, doing things that they enjoy, and raising their children! This couple had a wonderful life and seem to truly have loved each other and I imagine Mary ( I hope that I didn't get the name wrong) spending those last years alone! I believe that we all continue on past our lives in our stories and I am the keeper of these 2 spinster sisters life stories who lived together and looked after cats which people threw over their fence! But apart from that they shared many, many stories with me but no one wants to hear about them anymore and, because they are the last of the linage of, quite possibly, one of the Duke's of Bedford in England and his French mistress, who's name their father took and consequently so did his daughters, their name will, when I die, l never again be remembered!. I think that's why I am always so moved by your videos guys because you keep these memories alive by taking us with you on these voyages of discovery! We walk through these places with you! I don't know if anyone reading this has ever watched the movie "The Others" with Nicole Kidman" but I loved that movie because it mentions the "Other"people who's history is shared in the home, by many generations. I'm sorry that this is so long but thank you for reading! Love the channel.
What a fascinating story of the two spinsters! Could you record their back history and as many stories as you can remember, then give a copy to the local historical society? Just a thought to keep their memories alive....so happy they took care of the apparently unwanted cats-I raised 8 kittens (two litters left in my yard by a feral cat), and am now enjoying life with the last surviving one who will be 19 this Oct. 😺💕 It saddens me too to see all the abandoned memories and things created with love. Thank you for sharing your story.
@Nancy Carlson It's funny you know, and not in a humorous way, how animals can tell what kind of person you are and whether it's safe to come and try and find a home! I'm a real cat person but when Ethyl, the older sister who would be 91 if she was still alive, and Winifred the younger sister would be 87 and turning 88 next month, were alive I was raising my children and working a lot and I didn't have the time then that I have now to put tiwards animals, but these days my 5 cats, all rescues, are my world. Ethyl and Wyn were born in Sydney, Australia in the 1930's into poverty and they lived in the inner city in a place near Ultimo, but I can't remember what the town was sorry and they shared how their father always seemed old and the only photo I've seen of him he WAS old. They were not close with him! Their mother would clean the local Catholic Church and Convent and the nuns would make the girls beetroot sandwiches and occasionally, if their mother was there on a Sunday afternoon, they would give the girls the remains of their roast luncheon. The sisters were NOT people people but their neighbours knew they loved cats and so kittens and mothers etc would be dropped over the fence to them and they'd come outside and find them. When their mother finally died the sisters sold the property and moved as far away from Sydney as they could which still had an active train line. So in the 1970's they moved with 20+ cats to their home at Blackheath in the Blue Mountains. I could go on for hours but I'm just going to share the reason why they spent their lives in ill health. Their father went to the pub on a Saturday afternoon, and then, and ONLY then, did their mother give them the castor oil that would allow them to do their Number 2's! True, they were NOT allowed to go to the toilet for a longer visit on any other occasion in case their father needed to use the facilities, and he would fly into a rage if one of them was in there!. NO surprise that both of them died of bowel obstruction related issues! They've been gone 25 and 21 years, and I will inquire as to whether the Historical Museum has an interest in their stories! I don't want them to disappear from history! I hope that you have a great day Nancy. Thanks for your reply!
@@michellesartori6695 Wonderful to hear more of the sisters' story and of you and your cats, too. I believe my cats rescued me and my 3 children, as they came into our lives 5 months after their dad left us - they drew us together and gave us a common goal - they were with us/me through so much and made me laugh when I needed it the most. You take care and keep on loving those cats, Michelle.
@Nancy Carlson Animals do help us to carry on when we don't want to! I was in the exact same situation as you after my husband left me and my 5 children so I know what you mean! At the moment my 5 cats are what's holding me here. You take care too!
Thank you for the great story. Sounds like it would be a great book.
I just get so happy and smile when I watch you you're such a good kids and you have respect for human beings and that's an odd feature and people nowadays
Another great video Lesley and Danny. It always saddens me when family leave's their parents as well as their personal belongings behind to rot and decay along with their child hood home. They should of had an estate sale and donated the rest. Without this video Lesley and Danny the kids wouldn't have any memories left of what once was. Blessings to you both. See you on your next adventure.....😊
So you are telling them to keep the stuff but sell away their childhood home they decided they loved enough to not sell it for money? The memories weren’t made in the pictures, they were made in the house! It’s ridiculous when you realize you value pictures over your childhood home 😆
@@rafaeltorre1643 I guess we didn't watch the same video..
Hello my name is Jenna Beale this is my great grandmothers home. She was placed in a nursing home and sadly passed away. There are multiple reasons why we had to leave the things and why the house is abandoned. We are not negligent and love our family very much. Please think before you make assumptions or comment rude things about the family. Please enjoy the memories as we did but respectfully, thank you.
@@jennabeale4128 Exactly. People just don’t think about the reality of things before judging. They are saying that leaving pictures and belongings means you don’t care & you should take them but then say to sell the house so someone can use it. I wouldn’t sell my family home if I didn’t have to. The house full of memories means so much more then materials. I mean where do these people think you should store these pictures and belongings? In a bedroom? They are already home. The house wouldn’t still be in the family if someone wasn’t paying property taxes. Thanks for commenting.
@@jennabeale4128 I'd watched the video. I'm not assuming anything, nothing I've said was rude or disrespectful. It doesn't take much to grab a box and throw personal item in it. Everything is left in the house. What would you call it if not left to decay. God bless your grandma and the wonderful life she lived in that once beautiful home and the family she raised. When my dad passed away. Everything that was important to him we took home. All his clothes and shoes we donated. Pictures we made copies and put them in a photo album and gave them to his grandkids as well as us kids. If you honestly thought my comment was disrespectful, I apologize to you..have a blessed day.
Maybe Mary did what I did, for some of the family pictures, I made copies for my kids for their own albums,who knows. This house remin ds me of mine, those great old stereos last so long, and the records. The pieces of our lives we leave behind are memories etched in our hearts forever :) thank you Danny and Lesley for sharing this sweet farmhouse with us.
Love your channel. Such a shame seizing these houses abandoned. Instead of the families selling these homes they let everything fall in to disrepair. Really sad and should never happen.
Great idea! Sell out your childhood home! Get rid of it! Make money and value pictures of the lost home!
I too have immense respect for Bros of decay and I love Lesley and each time he and helper step into an abandoned house I pray constantly for their safety ..
hi Leslie Beth here, the brick wall behind the fireplace is there for safety and to repell the heat. Most homes in the USA and CANADA require them for the stovepipe to go through for safety.
Mary was much like my mother who passed away in 2015 on the very same date that she was born. She left behind thousands of photos that she took throughout her life of 73 yrs. I have them all in boxes and bags in my closet. Still haven't gone through them all. My mother also had dementia 😢 I always love your videos guys. Love u both 😘😘
It looks like the shower wall was destroyed by someone to get the copper pipes so they can sell them for money, the big key on the wall was likely made of copper too. Sad someone has not saved all those photographs. Thank you for the great explore. :)
Hello guys.
I remember seeing this house explored by someone else at least seven years ago.
It was not much different though less dug through.
I think the electrical panel was operating and lighting was on.
The stereo (record player) was on the TV.
Many items and the style is similar to my mother's mother.
I can't remember if the art was still on the wall, I'm thinking it was.
The picture of Emily and the school or church pictures were the daughter.
The film items set up high are
"Previewers" for editing purposes.
The actual Projectors look like a suitcase & the screen a long tube on a stand.
They're missing and I don't remember seeing them the last time either, (or her cameras, which would have been a
Polaroid One Step (circa 1977) (from memory)
& a mini "110"(example Hanimex like I had, or Vivitar, Kodak, perfect for travel). I also had one as well). Both were "point and shoot" no focus type camera.
I think the mystery easy for me to solve why it sits 18 years.
Emily and her husband currently own it and it will be handed over to the grandkids when they pass away. The "children" will be around 80 at least.
I agree it's sad that the pictures sit fading away which is what literally happens when they sit on a table in front of a window...fade away to blank like the memory.
The grandkids probably have no idea what to do with them and don't recognize the people except for the grandparents.
They're probably busy with instagram.
The "stone wall" was a very necessary thing - the Chimney -
I hope the grandkids show up and look after it before idiots burn it down like happened around here.
do you have link of the other video ?
Just imagine how many photos are on our phones …we are nuts how many pics we take
That one item on the top shelf that looked like it had a small monitor and the side reels for film...reminds me of my old video splicer or film editor from back in the day 😊
The house is in remarkable condition having been abandoned almost 20 years.
Thank you for posting this. Shame on the children and grandchildren. An American tragedy. How life has no value after one dies. Too sad!
Me too, hi happy new year 🎉
I could never leave so many photos of my loved ones,so many memories just left behind, such a lovely home just left to rot. Rest in peace Elmer and Mary.
It is so sad that the kids and /or grandkids did not care enough to just at least take the pictures how amazing for them to see the grandma and how things looked back In the day donate the furniture heck donate the house to help some homeless people
Why take them when they are already home? They are paying property taxes. And likely electric. You don’t think its still there because they want it???!
Photos are priceless! It always bothers me to find left photos. I love the way you give background information on the people who lived there. Such a charming house. Thx
Leslie, you’re a great narrator!
I like the way you tell the stories of abandoned homes thanks for being respectful of the belongings of those who are not with us anymore blessings from my beautiful State of Arizona and 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
This wouldn't happen if humans were willing to live in a healthy interconnected society, made of close-knit communities that would support and value each member.
There could be centers dedicated to history and storytelling. Everyone could record their voices and their personal memories, sharing how it was while they were growing up & leaving critical knowledge (gardening, survival skills etc.. for future generations.
And their pictures would be available for all to access- to put a face with the the voices.
I fear that soon, there will be millions of such ghost-homes as this- abandoned and left with fractured memories inside. So very sad...😔
I thought once of writing a small book of 'lessons' for people who come after but realised that the knowledge is mostly out of date. Tips on how to make the butter turn quickly. How to tell if a cow has milk fever or if it's something else. Changing the leathers in the piston pump. Even how to tie the cow's tail to her leg to keep from getting swatted while milking. This is all just useless now. Even garden things- the kids all eat store bought, they aren't interested. Even the recipe for the loaf of 6 strand braided bread I made every single night when they were growing up, they have no desire for it. When we get old we realise just how very unimportant many things really were, which seemed important at the time.
@@Chahlie I think your information is vital. For example, think of "The Carrington Event" of 1859. The sun put out a high level X flare, and the technology of the time was toast. It burned through the newly invented telegraph lines- wherever they were located.
Now we are light years more dependent on our technology. Carrington Event type flares happen every 150-200 years. If we don't have instructions for & knowledge of "the old ways", we are up the creek without a paddle. No one has the whole picture on a subject, so those with some knowledge are doing our species a service by recording it.
I am 60 now (61 next month), with one son who knows more of the practical matters because his dad taught him (& me) car mechanics, carpentry, cooking and other skills. He was taught the old ways by his dad-& had I known he would have such a short life, I would have insisted that he start a book or manual for us.😔
So your info is vital! I'm thinking of starting a collab, for production of an electronic document- one that we could all edit and add to...kind of a wikipedia of common sense & common skills. Then anyone with foresight could print it out. It probably should be etched in stone! LOL, but that's another project.
Heather it is so sad that most don't think of such contingencies. You are a treasure of knowledge, unacknowledged of this by those who most need to learn it. I really believe that will reverse- for good or for bad.🙏🏼
@@Chahlie I've milked cows! Even in this century lol. Never thought of tying the tail to their leg! Brilliant!💜
You are so, so right. Nobody seems to care any more. Gill 🇬🇧
@@cathrinewhite7629 Back in de day i never heard of this simple tie?thanks ill pass it around here we have a huge farms all around us.
Thank you loved the way you told their story. I cannot believe family did not want the photos! So very sad. Great explore Lesley & Denny thank you!!! 💙
Hello, happy new year 🎉
Wonderful explore guys. What a lovely homey atmosphere in the house. Homemade cushion covers, rocking chairs, and so many beautiful pictures. Thoroughly enjoyed your adventure. Thanks for bringing us along. 👏👍❤🇺🇸
Hello, happy new year 🎉
Very cozy home
I am sad to see a lot of memories left and If I want to have the 📷 of the dollies and the dresses made in crochet. 😊😉❤
When you said that you imagined that old ladies spent their days talking on the phone, my husband laughed so hard he almost snorted his water through his nose. We enjoy watching you guys so much, it's always a good way to spend the afternoon after a busy week.❤️ When you called the telephone "the horn" I was a little surprised because that's what my dad always called the phone, he'd announce "everyone pipe down, I'm on the horn". We love what you do and we are looking forward to seeing your next adventure with Danny 😘😘
Another beautiful video by Bros Of Decay!
Hi Leslie, greetings to you from Connecticut! I really enjoyed this video, especially in my home state! It was amazing to see what good condition so much of the house was still in. I am a new subscriber and have been catching up with your older videos. You both do a wonderful job! I especially love seeing our common place American items through your eyes. 😊
My state. I know this town fairly well. Lovely old house and beautiful photographs. Thanks for taking us here.
I just love how you are preserving American history. One of these days that house might be gone all together. Great video.
So sad to See this home left!
O que eu mais gosto nos vídeos de vcs é o respeito pelas lembranças que essas casas guardam de seus antigos donos.
Parabéns meninos.
You should go to Massachusetts next
Yes there is one in ware ma
Beautiful home but it’s so sad seeing everything left behind and the children and grandchildren don’t want it. I enjoy watching your channel.
Their family didn't even care enough to close the circle after she died. They just left the house as it was. Very sad.
@@nicolad8822 That it hurt too much to attend to the place? Maybe.
I also had thousands of photos of my kids growing up, work on the house and property, endless Christmas and Easter and Hallowe'en photos. And back then it was quite expensive to have them all printed. I went through them all and gave each child an album full and then threw away the rest. So many of just flowers and sunsets and so on. Pets. Chickens. Pigs. Cows. At least now people can save them electronically. It seemed such a waste, and honestly nobody will ever be interested in the sunflowers in 1986, or the heart shaped potato in 1992.... I did keep one album for myself, I suppose for when I'm in a home or in another country perhaps.
When you get old the past is just the past and what matters is right now. Perspective changes.
This beautiful home was once filled with love and so sad the memories are just left behind as though they never existed..This is what your kids think of you once you get old and die..
Often causes light sadness and nostalgia. Thanks for your work and good luck! With love, from Ukraine.
Thinking of Ukraine here in the USA

할머니 돌아가시고 집이나 사진 모두 추억을 남기고 떠나셨네요 슬프고 안타깝네요 사진은 추억인데 남은 사람들 사진 이라도 챙기고 가져가죠 집 버리고 갈때는 얼마나 가슴 아팠을까 알것 같아요
The 126 cameras were my favorite for travel. They also made great pictures.
Welcome to Connecticut, that's where i was born.. .. rather sad that so much is left behind.. You work all your life, store up memories, but no one seems to care.. it is a reminder to us all, MAKE plans before you die, give items away, to thrift store, friends, town heritage agency for your photos, etc.. thanks to you and Danny for the explore.. 👍👍
I believe the photos left behind shows how little we value tangible memories anymore. It irritates me that we really don’t have cameras that hold film. Everything has gone to technology and in my opinion is easily “deleted”, as though the people never existed. I have raised two sets of children. My first four children lived to the teenage years, and were unfortunately lost in auto accidents on their way to school, my three girls in 2000, my son and two of his friends on their way to the technology center in 2001. My husband was lost in 2020, but our “second” family, two girls, one ours one adopted, still here with me for a while yet, are 17, and 16. The amount of memories of the first is vast, but of the second very few. The reason isn’t because of lack of pictures taken, but because electronic devices have taken those memories to technology heaven with them. It infuriates me that I don’t have these memories to give them. But in reality they have been programmed to a throw away world. None of what 45 year olds and up had valued matters anymore. Most walk away from houses that weren’t put in their names as inheritance taxes usually take all value it would give, banks don’t want to clean them, agenda 2030 has everyone in 15 minute cities. So it becomes a throw away house, that was “a home”. Nothing of value to the youth of today. So sad, but in truth when you die, only your better half valued you and your lifetime. God grants us our growing and learning space here on this plane. He was gracious and honorable with his love for our growth in spirit. But man’s world is harsh, cruel, and cold. I miss my other half, he was my world. The world has lost its colors and meaning. I am going through my home and cleaning so my girls don’t have to. But have learned, my life, our lives, only matter to God and you.
R.I.Peace : I know what matters most to us they dont care!@ This world has lost all its values and dormains if i may put it that way?
I’m so sorry! What a tragedy to lose four children in the span of a few years. You are right about the younger generations, it’s unfortunate many have lost that connection to our history and ancestors.
God bless! Sorry for your losses
Thank you for being so respectful and honoring this home. Excellent job.
What a beautiful home. Simple and cozy. What lovely lives. Thank you Leslie.
21:15 can anyone see the water in the picture frame moving?
Hi Lesley I’m early tonight !I was late last week ,looke interesting see you soon lv Ann uk 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️
I love this house to. Looks so comfortable.
I will never understand why people disrespect their parents and grandparents belongings and houses like that! The furniture seemed in good condition, they could have sold or given to charity shops. All the photos could have been put into albums for future generations to have history of their family. The house also looked still liveable. Cleaned up, the family could rent or sell. A disgraceful waste and disrespect! However a very interesting explore, the house looked a it's bigger on the inside l was nicely surprised. Hope Danny feels better by now.🦘😟🥺😕🤨🤗
I absolutely love your channel. You do such a beautiful, respectful job of sharing these stories. For a moment, you bring these amazing people back to life. ❤
Sorry you were sick Danny. I wondered why you weren’t on the last video. Glad you are feeling a little better and hope you are back to feeling great soon.
Hi Leslie and Danny ,,I always enjoy your videos ,,,I only wish that people pass away that reletives would have more respect for what parents left behind family heirlooms and photos and antique,s ,they could had a yard sale or donated things to people that have great needs instead of letting things just go to waste and be destroyed ,,it's a shame that no one cares
Don't get me wrong, because I loooove those beautiful castle like mansions that you take us through in Europe. No doubt about that. But I also really enjoy these more modest dwellings also. Thanks so much for all you bring us in your very well done videos. Thanks for the respect you show to all their belongings. You guys make a great team.❤
Good job in discussing about the people 👏 that lived there in the past.
Hey Bros! Lesley and Danny! Wonderful video!👏👏❤❤
My grandfather got a camera at age 12 and he was the family historian. Label the photos!! Print your best photos on your phone
What a Beautiful time piece thanks for sharing with all of us ? Love yall Lesley and Danny take care
One of the things I really like about you is your respect for the personal items you look at. You gently look at the items and then return them to exactly where you found them. Some explorers just drop the items on the floor after looking at them. Who knows, maybe the families will return the day after the shoot to claim their relatives photos and personal effects. They do belong to someone. ❤
The bathroom wall was torn up probably by thieves taking copper water lines!! Good explore!!
The larger and smaller records also spin at different speeds. I particularly enjoyed this episode. I like them all but his one was just so moving and bittersweet. Thank you for this channel.
The lp, or long play albums, are the larger ones in the cardboard sleeves. They run at 33 rpm
The smaller ones, with the large holes in the middle, called 45s because they run at 45 rpm. You needed a plastic insert, to use them on the turntable, the odd turntable gave you a round insert so you could play the 45s.
@@gillesjacques1022 Also the 33 rpm records play several songs on each side where the 45 rpm's play just one song per side.
What a cozy little house 🏠. Thanks Lesley and Danny for sharing this video. It's a shame that the children didn't take any of their pictures or other memories of their mom and dad with them. So sad 😞 😔. Take care 😍 👌 🙂 💕 💜 ❤
You guys are so sweet and loving. I hope that you find the right wife that truly loves you and is your friend ❤. You have such a beautiful heart, you both do!
I love that you are there sharing their love for each other and their family. It is their beautiful legacy to us watching ❤❤❤
You guys are angels 😇🙏👍😍❤️♥️❤️♥️❤️♥️
They are amazing,hi happy new year 🎉
Another eloquent exploration/presentation!!!!🙏👍❤️
Io sono soffro di una strana forma di nostalgia per il bello del passato, di quello che poteva essere e di ciò che non è! Questi "tuffi" nel passato, nel tempo, negli oggetti e nelle cose, è anche un viaggio dentro di me, ogni vostro video, ogni oggetto, oggi storia, è un po' la mia. Avete la faccia da bravi ragazzi, non vi avrei mai guardati, altrimenti.
You are awesome ❤. You have so much love and respect for others and their past belongings. Thanks for being kind and respectful!!! Much ❤Love from Amber In the USA Indiana
I love to watch the explore adventure like this . But this video made me cry because i get the warm welcome and positive energy of the late owner. And yeah its very sad that their grandchildren didn't want to take care of this house again. There's such a lot of memories. I could feel that the late owner hoping that their grandchildren come back someday to take care this house.. its full of love and memories. I cry when i see all that stuff has been left behind for decades 😢😢
This is so sad that Mary and Elmer family didn't want to ask least take the pictures and stuff and put in a museum if they didn't want them it's sad beautiful home even with weather decay and over the years not been taking care of God bless you all thank you for sharing your amazing videos
Ik right
Thanks!
Oh my god this house I know the address of this place but I can’t access it I know the story and everything so sad
This is such a darling little house, it reminds me of my grandparents house ❤
Love the way you bring it to life
It looks like a typical American home from the late 60s with the wood paneling lime green and orange upholstered chairs.
that cushioned food tray is for when sitting on the sofa you can eat while watching tv. I have one very similar I use in bed sometimes lol. The copper pipes on water heater were missing like the ones in bathroom shower wall. People steal copper stuff as it's a good scrap high resale value.
Mary's obituary states she passed in 2010 at the age of 94.
Her husband Elmer died in 1983.
They had many children and grandchildren, hopefully they will return and collect those family photos and treasures.
Mary and Elmer had 4 children but her obituary states that 2 of her sons died before she did.
@@bulada3 I just saw the obit, sad she lost her 2 sons but looks like she lived a full life
I never knew these type of videos existed but I’m so happy to have found them. You are awesome. I love your passion it comes through on all your videos!
Beautiful story we can't take back yesterday. Are memories. And legacy. Is writing in history. That's are true gift from up above.
Why not such beautiful House with treasures granted to the Institution which caring the needed and orphans. So it useful for the living and good reward for them rather than vain by weather and time. Thanks' as always Lesley.
Thanks guys ❤😢
Love the accent "tink" instead of "think," "tree" instead of "three"... Very fun to listen to!
RIP Mary and Elmer you both will be very missed Beautiful Couple 🤵💍👰👼
The smaller records played at 45 rpm. They had one single on each side - usually the "hit" song on the A side and a lesser-known song on the B side. (I had an old 45 of a Beatles song when I was little.) The bigger ones played at 33 rpm. They had an entire album on them. I had several Beatles albums on vinyl when I was younger. Ah.... good memories. I still have my albums to this day, and I will never get rid of them.
It makes me want to go in and clean and tidy up this beautiful place if children and grandchildren get to see this video I hope they will go and clean and preserve this beautiful property. 👍 Hope you feel better soon we wont to see your beautiful face Lesley you look good too ❤️ take care of yourself's & keep doing what you are doing we really do appreciate and enjoy watching your videos 👍👍👏👏👍👍
Hello Lesley from Nashville Tennessee USA !!! I always seem to miss the premier but love your documentaries !!!! Keep up the awesome work !!!!
Something that people need to remember, you didn't live there in that home, people leave things and pictures behind for a reason, maybe the dad was not as nice as what people think, maybe some bad things happened in that house to the children/child that lived there, they would rather leave it all behind then remember those bad memories, don't let happy faces in pictures fool you, it's a picture with a untold story!!! Things are left behind for a reason!!!!
Hello Leslie n Danny. Thank u so much fr the video. Good job like always. God bless
I haven't read the comments but sometimes people who are hurting for money go into abandoned buildings and steal copper pipes it might be why the shower had been torn down. I really enjoy your videos, thank you for sharing.
What a lovely home.
Wonderful video, thank you for sharing this! I have an identical wood-burning stove that I heat my house with, it's a Vermont Castings 'Defiant' Parlor Furnace.
I am impatiently waiting for your documentary
