@Wendy Fascinating that you’re a genealogist, I’ve been trying to piece together my Irish genealogy and it’s a challenge to say the least with the information I have. I now deeply appreciate what it takes to connect dots of long lost ancestors when all those that had answers, have gone to rest. 🙏
A random guy, on a random road, in random America, stops by a random cemetery and puts in all that labor and love!! Awesome job. Thank you and your family!❤
You,are the most kind,wonderful compassionate man I have ever met. You have done wonderful things for ppl but this tops them all and I cried through most of the video. 😢 But God has most definitely blessed your life and now your paying that forward to others. God bless you and your family. It shows that there are still ppl in this world that still care and they love Jesus like I do.
Kevin you and your wife are wonderful parents, wonderful people. Your daughter is the sweetest kindest hearted little girl. Beautiful to see what you are teaching her. She will be an amazing woman just like the 2 of you. Thank you!!
You don’t know how much this video meant. Not only are you teaching compassion to your daughter you are making beautiful lasting memories. It’s nice to see that there are still good people in this world ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kevin and Rachel, my heart is overflowing from this selfless act of cleaning not just the Cemetery but bringing beauty back to the headstones. Your daughter joining in was the cherry on the top for me! God bless you! Love, your Kansas neighbor.
I agree, lots of selfish entitled, insecure, judgemental, chasing the cheese consumed only with themselves and not present in the present people. All about themselves and two faced.
You have completed an amazing job. Not only did you mow, cut trees and clean up, you bought flags and flowers for our Veterans and deceased people who probably would be very pleased and proud that they have been remembered in this way after so many years. Thank you for bringing in the Elders of the Mormon Church and having them assist you. I wish they could have stayed longer. God bless you and your family! My suggestion for your son's name is Jeremy.
Sir when I look for examples of what a hero is I found you. Taking your time, energy, money and talents to better the world. Then at the 45 minute mark I saw you shine. A dad showing his children what it is to be of service to others. To love and respect others in cleaning the headstones of people they never knew. God bless you good sir. You are a good man, a father, a husband and a hero raising up your children to be of service to others. May God Bless you and your dear family.
You don't have to but by subscribing to the Channel it greatly supports the work that I do for the community. The best part is it doesn't cost you a dime to be a subscriber!😎👍💯 THANK YOU!!!
Hey my wife Rachel just had her birthday yesterday but she reads my comments and I was thinking if we could flood her with birthday wishes that would make her super happy!!!! thank you!
Taking your daughter on this trip is truly shaping her as a person. She will remember things like this for the rest of her life. You are so doing it right by her!
I am amazed/impressed by all of your generosity and hard work, Kevin, but with this one you’ve truly blown me away - for several reasons. It’s a huge project, yet you kept going. The respect you showed to veteran George Littleton and others. The memories and lessons taught to your daughter as you worked together to clean the headstones. The beautiful flowers and mulching. All I can say is to ask God to continue to bless you, your big heart, and compassion for others! You are one of a kind!! Thank you for sharing this with us. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if this video inspired others to do similar service? ❤❤❤
You sir, have cemented yourself into the "unsung heros "catagory! I am immeasurably impressed with the humanbeing that you are! I am not a religious person, per say, but if anyone is an undercover angel, it's you! I've been watching your channel for a little while and have been comforted to see someone who is doing something constructive for people ,mostly in need,and enjoy doing it........ But this one just put me over the top with pride! (The water is still coming out of my eyes!) The good lord, however you personally see him, has blessed this earth with you 🙏 ❤ So may I say..."Thank you sir,for all you do!" Happy holidays to you and your beautiful family, and I know, 2023 will be all the better for having you here!
This world needs more people like you and your family - who are truly good people, old fashioned neighborly, and care about others. I've watched several of your videos before, but I finally subscribed when I watched your daughter cleaning gravestones with you! Almost brought a tear to my eyes to see such a young generation practicing good stewardship. Not only are you a sincerely good man, but also a good parent. Historic graves in any cemetery are often terribly neglected. Bless you and your family!
As someone who dabbles in genealogy and photographs headstones for family, you are presenting a gift to many. There are times you just can’t find headstones because of neglect. Thank you!
I was thinking to myself "30 mins left? what else could he possibly do? " then you bring out the potted flowers and shrubs... You are a good man, Kevin. God bless you and your beautiful family for doing this. 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for this job. My husband’s grand/great-grandparents are in a publicly owned cemetery that is as neglected as this one. We try to care for their plot and the plots around theirs. It brought me to tears knowing maybe some day when we can no longer care for them, someone else will love them as much as we do. I’m sure you brought the same joy to many others.
When my kids were young - 35 years ago - we went to a very old, small church cemetery to collect pine cones. I’ll always remember my daughter’s tears as she found headstones for babies and young children. I love that your daughter worked hard to clean headstones and honour lives lost, often too young as well.
I have been doing the same thing for over fifty years. A cemetery where my two and three times great grandparents are buried. I dont consider it a chore or burden as these people have made me what i am. There is an old saying that goes like this: neglected graves are a shameful thing. Many thanks for what you have done. Sincerely, Richard Weeks.
To see your daughters tiny little hands cleaning headstones of people long since gone from this world brought tears to my eyes. The compassion your whole family has for these departed loved ones is something we don't see everyday any longer unfortunately. Bless you and your family for all you did here and have done ❤
Kevin, these cemeteries make a great Eagle Scout project. If you find another one, reach out to the local Boy Scout Council to coordinate a project. The project should include both the cleanup as well as safely cleaning the stones , photographing and uploading to Find-a-grave, if this hasn’t been done. If the Scouts aren’t interested, then do what you do best.
Another suggestion would be if you know the cemetery you will be working at putting an announcement in the local newspaper. Family members or volunteers can come and help in this project. Thank you for the narrative information on how to be a better responsible person.
As my pastor is fond of saying, “ He didn’t have to, but He did”! What a wonderful tribute to somebody’s loved ones! You always go that extra mile and I’m blessed just watching. Thanks for what you do and sharing to inspire others!!!!!
Kevin, Thank you for taking care of the forgotten. All, I do have a family grave site similar to that, but fortunately, it's next to a church. Their markers are very old and worn off on some. That's what happens to the 1600s headstones. We, who are left to the task of taking care of our ancestors resting places, have a huge responsibility of documenting for our own offspring. I just received a message today from my cousins daughter who asked her mother. Life does go on and so does our curiosity.
Our civilization began the day we start to bury the deceased; but when we start to pay respect to their passing, this was the day we became Human Beings. Thanks to you and your family for paying an admirable tribute to these forgotten ones.
How crazy! this cemetery has been neglected by the city and family members. And it's being rescued by you and your family. I couldn't believe when you took the roots out of the tombstone that I could barely see. I loved when you taught your daughter to give some dignity to these tombs of people who are forgotten by society. You teach your daughter civility and respect for others, even if that being is not among us as a matter.
It's so beautiful and touching to see how your daughter cleans the gravestone, with a lot of hard work and love, you and your wife had so much work, no money in the world could pay for that, it gives me faith in humanity, God bless you four, thank you😇💞👍💪🙏🙏🙏🙏
Kevin, you have blown me away with this transformation. I've seen your generosity and kindness in other videos but this is truly one I will never forget. You worked so very hard on this one...I saw your sweat and effort and unflagging energy to keep going and finish the entire project until you were satisfied. When you cut the grass and trees...well that's what you do. But when you bought flowers to beautify the grounds, my heart burst with love for you. You even mulched the new flowers....of course it would be shaped like a BIG HEART. Your heart is the biggest one I have ever seen. Thank you for being a Good Man in such a scary time in our lives. Thank you for walking in Love. I bless you and your family...may you sleep well every night knowing the good you have done. Love from Winston Salem, NC...Gina J. Wyatt
I really enjoyed working on this project. I have been researching to find a few more and I have found a few that I can't wait to clean up. I found one with my dad today that hasn't been active in over 100 years. It has been hide by time in the woods.
@@LawnCareJuggernaut They say that butterflies are kisses from Heaven. How sweet that a butterfly came to visit you. The flowers & mulch into the shape of a heart, & then the butterfly...brought tears to my eyes. May God continue to bless, guide, & watch over you & your beautiful, growing family. 🙏👣🤰👨👩👧👦🐾👼🦋
It broke my heart and made me cry to see the forgotten cemetery in the forgotten people. The heart of flowers was wonderful. You and your daughter washing those stones was amazing. I have no family there but thank you
Thank you for spending the time and effort needed to clean up this cemetery. I suppose it's only natural that after immediate family members die off or move away, there is no one left to care about the graveyard or the markers, so what you did means a great deal to the community where the cemetery exists. I am a volunteer with the grass-roots effort called 'By Memorial Day' whose goal it is to clean all veteran headstones in private, public, and municipal cemeteries each year 'By Memorial Day.' We can always use more volunteers, so if anyone reading this comment wants to know more, search TH-cam for the channel, 'Honor Your DNA'. Again, thank you Kevin. Mowing lawns for free to help people out shows great character. Doing that work - and more - for people who can never thank you is even greater.
I have seen a lot of landscaping jobs on TH-cam. But this one has to be my very best one to watch. You and your family did an awesome job. And God will reward you for doing something from your heart. Planting those shrubs and flowers looks really good. And the mulch in a shape of a heart is awesome. The best thing you did was putting flags on those who fought for United States of America. I'm from Canada but what you did was so awesome. You showed love for those who are buried there. I hope people will come and visit this small graveyard and plant a flower or two. I prayed that God will protect and bless your family. God loves you and the people that are buried there love you too. Cause there spirits are with you in a good and loving way. Keep up the great work you do. 😇 You are an angel sent by God. God has given each of us a guardian angel. And God will watch over you and your family. God Bless my Brother in Christ.
As someone who is into genealogy and the keeper of much of my family’s history, thank you. This helps so many people in their search to connect and find info. These cemeteries are often the connection to finding that missing link. The more we care for them the better. Also, no one deserves to be forgotten. So thank you.
Yes. Same here. Cemeteries are dear to me. I’m also into Genealogy and am the keeper of the family history. I visit lots of cemeteries. Always sad when I see one neglected. My family makes annual donations to 4 family cemeteries to help support the maintenance of them.
Thank you for being so respectful to these graves & to the graves of soldiers. My late husband was 30 yrs Army. I know he is so proud of you!!! Thank you!!!
The drone footage makes a great impact of the size of the project. What you accomplished in two days is stunning, Kevin and family. ❤️ Thank you for your care and stewardship of our history.
My family has been cemetary caretakers on both sides for generations. A heart felt thank you for tending this neglected cemetary. So often small rural cemeteries have no funding and go by the way side and no one willing to do the work. It is about respect and I appreciate your hard work.
When you put the flags on the graves that had been lost, I cried. That was such a powerful statement, showing that they are not forgotten and making sure others don’t forget them. Great job, sir. Thank you.
Of all your wonderful cleanups , this one got to my heart strings the most. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for restoring some dignity to a forlorn and abandoned cemetery. I love the garden done in the shape of a heart. As a young child I used to think it was sad that cemeteries became forgotten and fell into disrepair. A sad indictment on societal values of the dead, IMO. I always wished there was a national remember the dead and clean a cemetery day, maybe one day. You and your family did an amazing job restoring beauty and showing respect and care into peoples final resting place.
I watched you and your family with all your hearts working on this project. All that came to my mind when you planted that garden at the end was that you had a “heart of gold.” I woke up this morning thinking about your future-born son and this thought came to me. His name shall be Gabriel, which means man of God. Legally, his name shall be Gabriel, but his nickname to all will be Gabe (because you wouldn’t like to call him Gab). Remember that Gabriel in the Bible is an angel who announced Jesus’ birth. That was a high ranking angel. I am sure you will consider your son as an angel! I love the work that you do.
Thank you for cleaning that cemetery. My grandparents cemetery was bought by a man that didn't know it was a cemetery. It's out of state from where I live, and family keeps up our part of it. Last year a young couple took on the whole cemetery and cleaned 6 foot plus weeds, fallen trees, and garbage that people dumped. Once that clean up was made, the historical society added it to there monthly clean up. You might bring notice to this and by your kindness get this place taken care of for good. At least we were lucky to have that happen for us. As for as baby names we just welcomed baby Luke Donald into our family on Sept 3rd. I wanted it to be Luke Brian, but they wouldn't go for it. LOL
I am so impressed with what you and your family did for the people that have this cementary close to them and even ties to people buried there. It was a very respectful, caring and kind act. Thank you for being a such a generous man and also to your wife and daughter joining in your efforts.
This was so kind and generous of you and your time. Your family's help and the two guys you met. I know you are worn out but God gave you the strength to accomplish this Great Deed you did for the people buried here and their family. God will truly bless you for all the hard work and the states you have given your time too. You have a great heart and we all love you for it. It looks Amazing.........
"People are people everywhere." - We really are all more alike than we think. Kindness and empathy for others, no matter how different, can go so far. I can honor the soldier as a person as well as our collective history without any hatred for what his beliefs might have been. (despite them being very different from my own) I love seeing you and your family serving others so selflessly. Your daughter's tiny hands scrubbing those headstones, many of them for babies themselves, was so sweet and powerful. You all are really making the world a better place one lot at a time. The end was beautiful with the flowers.
Must admit that we shed a few tears watching this vlog especially whilst our queen, our monarch is being laid to rest. Care and compassion is an attribute that you deliver with compassion. From the UK x
Seriously Kevin you,Your Family and the 2 guys who helped….There are Just No Words with Praise enough to put down as a comment So I will just say in my own way:- Truly Inspirational and Here in the UK we unfortunately see more headstones kicked over or Spray painted with Graffiti so to see this is truly an Eye opener and A Faith in Humanity still exists out there with people like you.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is one of the most emotionally charged videos that I’ve watched! The kindness you and your family show is, by far, off the charts! The tears stared when your young daughter helped clean the gravestones…..I lost it! Teaching her respect and appreciation for those who came before! What a life lesson!
You and your daughter honored the deceased with your caring hands of scrubbing the tombstones, clearing the graveyard, adding the many flags and planting those pretty flowers. You really put a lot of care and love in this project. Your family is so blessed to have you in their lives. May your baby boy be blessed in good health as well as the rest of the family.❤
I love how you get your kids and family involved with helping your community. It is so beautiful to me. These are lasting memories your children will never forget. You are raising beautiful hearted children
what you guys have done here is soul-cleaning work. This is the kind of thing that brings good karma. You are raising a good human being and a productive member of society by getting your daughter involved in community work like this. Thank you!
I'm not that religious, but I don't know what else to say than "God bless you and your family!" Your daughter is so precious, and you're doing a damn good job raising her and teaching her compassion!
This was my favorite project that you have shared! I am our family's genealogist and so appreciate your hard work to honor those who lived and were loved. Thanks for sharing your interaction with the Elders. I have a tender place in my heart for them, my oldest son served his mission in North Carolina. They are hard workers and love to help.
Unfortunately time is forgetting it little by little as family and friends of the deceased pass away but you’ve given the cemetery a breath of fresh air. Who knows how many will notice but that’s not what’s important, you’ve paid your respects and shown your family what your priorities are. Family and community. I love this
Those little hands of your daughter cleaning the forgotten tombstones, so precious. It's amazing you cleaned that place and gave back the respect every human deserves. Great job Kevin, greetings from Poland 😊
The way you said “alright Joseph I’ll let you get back to your rest” when you had stood his stone up again ❤ and the way you were sure to put the seashells someone had left there back on the next one! Amazing job
I can definitely tell how hard that transformation was. I am truly amazed at the detail that you went to, to ensure that the place was not only accessible, but beautiful, too. Paying tribute to those fallen by either a war or natural causes. It doesn't matter...north/south... war/disease. They are all deserving of respect as a fellow human beings. You did that in a big way, here. By the way, I bet you slept good after this one!! lol Take care LCJ and all of your other viewers!
I am so impressed that you took the initiative to do what the community hadn't done . Cemeteries all over are neglected and forgotten. Thank you for your big beautiful heart. You are one of the good guys.
I just found your page so I know you won't see my comment, but this was so astonishingly beautiful. I cried when your baby was cleaning the stone for baby Harmon and when you placed all the flags. What a wonderful way to honor these forgotten people. Bless you and your family.
well you got me on this one Kevin and in more ways than one. Doing something besides homes/businesses is rare with lawncare videos. All the xtra you did with the flags/flowers really got me. Don't worry about uncovering a head stone, there's a guy that has a yt channel and that's almost all he does, find abandoned cemeteries and clears off the headstones. He's in GA so alot of what he finds are confederate soldiers. And then the Mormon boys show up, I lost it and here's why. I'm not but most of my family are Mormon. I just talked to my step sister, a Mormon, last night to tell her what's going on with me and the prayers I needed. And here are two boys praying for your followers. coincidence? I think not. Bless you for doing this and all the xtra you put into it.
As a teenager 6 decades ago, I cut the grass at my church's cemetery by myself. Once. There were no string trimmers, so it was done the hard way. With the machinery you have, one man can do a huge amount of work in one day. This was a spectacular job! Your daughter learned so much working with you. God bless you and your family. If you are Christian, there are plenty of Biblical name: Adam, Seth, Noah, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Peter, Samuel, Joseph, Abraham.... etc.
Kevin, you bring tears to my eyes seeing you transformed the cemetery so beautiful. All these men fought for our country and it is sad to see how they are treated. An abandoned cemetery that no one took the time to care for. May God bless you, your wife and daughter who find the time to go there and clean it up. Can you do one thing for me, please wear a mask. All that dust is not good for your lungs. Don’t you want to live to see your daughter through college and then get married? Please wear a mask for Christ sake. Blessings. 🙏
As a Genealogists, I love what you did for this cemetery, it is no longer a sad forgotten place. May your efforts be and bring Blessings to you and others.
I did a few other cemeteries over the summer I am looking for a genealogists that might help me research some information on some of the people from the sites. If you have any interest send me an email at amjuggernaut@gmail.com thank you so much
@@maryhelton-lasser1597 Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 🤗
@@LawnCareJuggernaut I wrote another post but I feel something is weird with an abandoned cemetery. You might want to look into that. Even if there was a hurricane every state has an agency that has jurisdiction over cemeteries. It's because of public health. You may have stumbled into more than hidden graves. If a local paper would be interested, your cemetery finds would make wonderful stories.
By cleaning and videoing those old headstones, you are giving a gift to the descendants of the deceased for years into the future. I’ve gained an interest in genealogy recently and have been looking for my ancestors’ graves. I can’t tell you how thrilling it feels whenever I find a photo of a family headstone online. Such a wonderful connection to the past!
There are two websites "find a grave" and "billion graves" that rely on volunteers to photograph and transcribe headstones. Its rewarding serving others by doing this.
I did my tree a long time ago and what I discovered is that a lot of my ancestors didn't have marked graves. Go back a little over 100 years and where they're from they would end up being in mass graves after being interred for a while (to save space) so where they are now, I'd only have a general idea...
Awesome of you to return and clean up the cemetery. It’s touching to see your daughter cleaning the headstones. I admire you and your family working together on this project. Blessings to you and your family❣️I loved ❤the finishing touch of adding flowers. The butterfly means an angel was showing appreciation for your work. People like you reminds me of the good in the world❣️
I absolutely love how you taught your daughter the importance of caring for the old cemetery stones!!!! Rachel is so adorable!!!!! I think that Kevin Raphael would make an awesome name!!
I live a football fields length away from my towns cemetery. I walk through it a lot in the nicer months and I say there names out loud. I often wonder when I look at a headstone, when the last time there name was said out loud. I figure they all deserve that much. Very nice of you to do this. You have a huge heart. ❤️
As a genealogist “thank you”! I visit gravesites to gather information. It’s so much nicer to be able to walk-up to a site without getting feet tangled in briars and the like. Bless you!
There are actually people like you? You are an inspiration to give back. The best boy name I have heard is my grandson's name, MATEO. It means GIFT. The respect you showed the veterans is heartwarming. I was spit on at Los Angeles ariport less than an hour after I landed after flying in a cargo plane back from Vietnam with hundreds of other soldiers packed like sardines for over 20 hours. Just two days ago some sad person made dispargaging remarks about my Vietnam combat unit sticker I had on the back window of my truck. I had no idea I was a murdering sadist. When will it all stop? Your acknowlegement for these heros made me feel good. Thank you for letting me vent. Your inspirational speeches are AWESOME. I wish I could mesmorize audiences like these speakers do. THANK YOU
I feel like you would need a high confidence in your skills to tackle a project like this. I would be too worried about crashing into a grave stone, knocking it over, or chipping an edge of one. Massive props
I have been watching your videos for a couple of months now and have always been impressed by your positive attitude and willingness of help others with your physical efforts. The voiceover about enterprise and getting better and better, not lesser & lesser made me think differently about getting older. Anyone can see that your were very committed to this project. Thanks for all the little extras you put into it. When I was a child up in central NY State, I used to help my mother cleanup the untended graves in our little town's cemetery just before Memorial Day, One that day there was always a parade with the high school marching band leading it. The parade ended in the cemetery with veterans shooting off a salute. The heart shape was nice, but I thought you had planned it that way! Also glad to see in the comments from a thankful relative of someone buried there. Blessing to you and your increasing family.
I thinkin this is my favorite video, next to when you saved the beautiful dog of course. Beautiful family, the respect y'all shown with the loved ones passed on, the 2 young gentlemen Elder Littlefield and Elder Terry whom I want to thank for their prayer as I will pray for y'all!! Thank you all ✌🏻❤️✝️😊
What a tremendous upbinging this young lady is getting. Service and compassion is so sorely needed. Thank you for making the world just a little better.
To see young boys help out and then stand and prey, it brought tears to my eyes , their parents should be very proud of them ..I just hope after all this very hard work that local people look after this lovely old cemetery. Best wishes to you and your family and new baby….From. Cheshire ,England,
Neat cemetery project. I love how you involved your daughter by letting her clean grave markers. Such a respectful thing to honor those who have passed before us.
I commend you for what you've done for the forgotten grave sites. The respect you have shown for those who have gone before you I also appreciate the services you're giving through your heart. We need more people like you
Started watching you a while ago and had to drop you a line..you are such a wonderful man, so nice to know there are still people like you in the world !! Thank you for all you do..best of luck on your new son coming, he's going to be wonderful with the big heart his daddy has.
What a great helper you got there, awesome to see how dad and daugter and your wive work together for people you never know. Also the boys at the end,great. With tears in my eyes greetings from the Netherlands ,Harry
I just viewed this particular transformation. This is beyond any video of this type that I have ever seen. By far and away my all time favorite. This was a wonderful, giving project. It was great to see your young daughter helping with cleaning the headstones. I know this is an older video and you probably won’t even see this comment but thank you so much for all you do and especially this project. Keep up your excellent work and God Bless You.
As someone who has spent over 40 years finding and listing cemeteries like this one, I hope your posting this video will encourage other lawn care guys to follow in your footsteps. There are thousands of these cemeteries across the US in need of cleaning up. There are over 200 of these in Gaston and Lincoln county, NC.
Kevin you and your family’s hard work is so heart warming to watch. I sat here and watched all you done to help the memory of all the people in this cemetery live on and not be forgotten. It made me wish I were there to help you throughout this renovation. I hope you reach the hearts of many throughout your journey in life. Thank you
I’m not ashamed to admit that I got emotional and teary eyed as the headstones were being cleaned. It meant a lot to me that you and your family cleaned up that graveyard. I’m hoping someone nearby will maintain it now that you’ve done the hard work.
It doesn’t matter who is buried there,they are all human beings.Thank you for the respect you’ve shown by clearing this cemetery. Have you ever gotten in trouble for clearing a derelict overgrown area without permission? I personally don’t give a skinny rat’s *** but there are so many Karen’s out there who love to object about things.
What a kind, thoughtful, and giving thing to have done!! For all of the families of those resting in this cemetery, you have received quite a special blessing!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow this video made me smile and cry. Seeing you your wife and your daughter all working together. Your daughter did such a wonderful job with love and you guys were teaching her also about history. It was nice the Mormon boys helped.. but I'm glad that you did the rest by your self because those plants and flags were planted with love... Thank you for your love and compassion that's shows in your family and your work..God bless you as you keep blessing others.
As someone who has family buried at that cemetery, thank you so much. This meant a lot to my family 💙
Did you see him plant a new flag in the Humphrey plot
(Me)
30:50 I saw him weed wack it and he cleaned two of the Humphrey grave stones too. He put a flag at David’s Humphrey grave too
I noticed you cleaned a grave stone with my sir name on, I had no idea I had family as far reaching as Florida. Thanks for your kind heart.
@Wendy Fascinating that you’re a genealogist, I’ve been trying to piece together my Irish genealogy and it’s a challenge to say the least with the information I have. I now deeply appreciate what it takes to connect dots of long lost ancestors when all those that had answers, have gone to rest. 🙏
SIr, I am honored to share this good ole Earth with you and yours. Thank you all very, very much.
A random guy, on a random road, in random America, stops by a random cemetery and puts in all that labor and love!! Awesome job. Thank you and your family!❤
I'm not sure how random more self aware of divine appointments
You,are the most kind,wonderful compassionate man I have ever met. You have done wonderful things for ppl but this tops them all and I cried through most of the video. 😢 But God has most definitely blessed your life and now your paying that forward to others. God bless you and your family. It shows that there are still ppl in this world that still care and they love Jesus like I do.
Kevin you and your wife are wonderful parents, wonderful people. Your daughter is the sweetest kindest hearted little girl. Beautiful to see what you are teaching her. She will be an amazing woman just like the 2 of you. Thank you!!
You don’t know how much this video meant. Not only are you teaching compassion to your daughter you are making beautiful lasting memories. It’s nice to see that there are still good people in this world ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kevin and His Family Are AMAZING
May God keep you'll family safe
You are teaching your children a great thing my parents taught me that I still try to go out and check on everyone's stones
Kevin and Rachel, my heart is overflowing from this selfless act of cleaning not just the Cemetery but bringing beauty back to the headstones. Your daughter joining in was the cherry on the top for me! God bless you! Love, your Kansas neighbor.
I agree, lots of selfish entitled, insecure, judgemental, chasing the cheese consumed only with themselves and not present in the present people. All about themselves and two faced.
People like you make this world a better place! Thank you for your kindness! 😉
You have completed an amazing job. Not only did you mow, cut trees and clean up, you bought flags and flowers for our Veterans and deceased people who probably would be very pleased and proud that they have been remembered in this way after so many years. Thank you for bringing in the Elders of the Mormon Church and having them assist you. I wish they could have stayed longer. God bless you and your family! My suggestion for your son's name is Jeremy.
Sir when I look for examples of what a hero is I found you. Taking your time, energy, money and talents to better the world. Then at the 45 minute mark I saw you shine. A dad showing his children what it is to be of service to others. To love and respect others in cleaning the headstones of people they never knew. God bless you good sir. You are a good man, a father, a husband and a hero raising up your children to be of service to others. May God Bless you and your dear family.
Having your little girl helping you clean the grave stones speaks volumes of the kind of dad you are. If you were my son I'd be very proud of you.
I am crying at the part where y’all are cleaning the headstones. It is so sweet to see the respect you are giving to someone else’s family members.
Thank you for all of the love and respect you have these that are buried there!! You showed that love overcomes death❤
FOR THOSE WHO CAN NO LONGER SAY IT THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR WHAT YOU DID ON THIS DAY.
You don't have to but by subscribing to the Channel it greatly supports the work that I do for the community. The best part is it doesn't cost you a dime to be a subscriber!😎👍💯 THANK YOU!!!

@@asabovesobelow7981 Thank you so much for the support!!!!!
Oddly therapeutic so I subbed a few months ago lol
Subbed

Happy birthday 🎊🎂🎉🎁
Happy birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉
Happy Birthday Rachel🍰
Happy Birthday!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL!!!
You truly blew me away sir! Amazing to see our Confederate soldiers graves and the beautiful transformation. God bless you and your family ❤❤❤❤
Taking your daughter on this trip is truly shaping her as a person. She will remember things like this for the rest of her life. You are so doing it right by her!
I am amazed/impressed by all of your generosity and hard work, Kevin, but with this one you’ve truly blown me away - for several reasons. It’s a huge project, yet you kept going. The respect you showed to veteran George Littleton and others. The memories and lessons taught to your daughter as you worked together to clean the headstones. The beautiful flowers and mulching. All I can say is to ask God to continue to bless you, your big heart, and compassion for others! You are one of a kind!! Thank you for sharing this with us. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if this video inspired others to do similar service? ❤❤❤
One would think someone would in passing or seeing would stop or come to ask if there was anything they could do to help.
You sir, have cemented yourself into the "unsung heros "catagory! I am immeasurably impressed with the humanbeing that you are! I am not a religious person, per say, but if anyone is an undercover angel, it's you! I've been watching your channel for a little while and have been comforted to see someone who is doing something constructive for people ,mostly in need,and enjoy doing it........
But this one just put me over the top with pride! (The water is still coming out of my eyes!)
The good lord, however you personally see him, has blessed this earth with you 🙏 ❤
So may I say..."Thank you sir,for all you do!" Happy holidays to you and your beautiful family, and I know, 2023 will be all the better for having you here!
This world needs more people like you and your family - who are truly good people, old fashioned neighborly, and care about others. I've watched several of your videos before, but I finally subscribed when I watched your daughter cleaning gravestones with you! Almost brought a tear to my eyes to see such a young generation practicing good stewardship. Not only are you a sincerely good man, but also a good parent. Historic graves in any cemetery are often terribly neglected. Bless you and your family!
As someone who dabbles in genealogy and photographs headstones for family, you are presenting a gift to many. There are times you just can’t find headstones because of neglect. Thank you!
Hey! I'm so glad you finally got into cemeteries!
I was thinking to myself "30 mins left? what else could he possibly do? " then you bring out the potted flowers and shrubs... You are a good man, Kevin. God bless you and your beautiful family for doing this. 🙏🏻
Yep: tears 💜
AMEN GOD BLESS YOU🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌟❤️
Did you water the plants good??? You did an awesome job, God Bless you and family. Thank you for being so thoughtful.
Thought the same 😊
I hope the little garden survived.
Wonderful touch.
Thank you so much for this job. My husband’s grand/great-grandparents are in a publicly owned cemetery that is as neglected as this one. We try to care for their plot and the plots around theirs. It brought me to tears knowing maybe some day when we can no longer care for them, someone else will love them as much as we do. I’m sure you brought the same joy to many others.
When my kids were young - 35 years ago - we went to a very old, small church cemetery to collect pine cones. I’ll always remember my daughter’s tears as she found headstones for babies and young children. I love that your daughter worked hard to clean headstones and honour lives lost, often too young as well.
I have been doing the same thing for over fifty years. A cemetery where my two and three times great grandparents are buried. I dont consider it a chore or burden as these people have made me what i am. There is an old saying that goes like this: neglected graves are a shameful thing. Many thanks for what you have done. Sincerely, Richard Weeks.
To see your daughters tiny little hands cleaning headstones of people long since gone from this world brought tears to my eyes. The compassion your whole family has for these departed loved ones is something we don't see everyday any longer unfortunately. Bless you and your family for all you did here and have done ❤
I think you guys do a Great Job.. You are caring & compassionate people❤. Boys name River
Beyond precious ❤
Kevin, these cemeteries make a great Eagle Scout project. If you find another one, reach out to the local Boy Scout Council to coordinate a project. The project should include both the cleanup as well as safely cleaning the stones , photographing and uploading to Find-a-grave, if this hasn’t been done. If the Scouts aren’t interested, then do what you do best.
Another suggestion would be if you know the cemetery you will be working at putting an announcement in the local newspaper. Family members or volunteers can come and help in this project. Thank you for the narrative information on how to be a better responsible person.
As my pastor is fond of saying, “ He didn’t have to, but He did”! What a wonderful tribute to somebody’s loved ones! You always go that extra mile and I’m blessed just watching. Thanks for what you do and sharing to inspire others!!!!!
Kevin, Thank you for taking care of the forgotten.
All, I do have a family grave site similar to that, but fortunately, it's next to a church. Their markers are very old and worn off on some. That's what happens to the 1600s headstones. We, who are left to the task of taking care of our ancestors resting places, have a huge responsibility of documenting for our own offspring. I just received a message today from my cousins daughter who asked her mother. Life does go on and so does our curiosity.
Watching your daughter's little hands cleaning the Graves of the little children was very touching. You are raising her right and teaching her well.
Our civilization began the day we start to bury the deceased; but when we start to pay respect to their passing, this was the day we became Human Beings. Thanks to you and your family for paying an admirable tribute to these forgotten ones.
Well said Ray.
How crazy! this cemetery has been neglected by the city and family members.
And it's being rescued by you and your family.
I couldn't believe when you took the roots out of the tombstone that I could barely see.
I loved when you taught your daughter to give some dignity to these tombs of people who are forgotten by society. You teach your daughter civility and respect for others, even if that being is not among us as a matter.
You are a hero! Thank you.
They probably passed themselves. But men like this brother brings Honor where honor is due
Such a heartwarming video. The dignity you gave to these lost love ones is priceless.
The cleaning of the headstones with the kids just warmed my heart ❤
It's so beautiful and touching to see how your daughter cleans the gravestone, with a lot of hard work and love, you and your wife had so much work, no money in the world could pay for that, it gives me faith in humanity, God bless you four, thank you😇💞👍💪🙏🙏🙏🙏
Kevin, you have blown me away with this transformation. I've seen your generosity and kindness in other videos but this is truly one I will never forget. You worked so very hard on this one...I saw your sweat and effort and unflagging energy to keep going and finish the entire project until you were satisfied. When you cut the grass and trees...well that's what you do. But when you bought flowers to beautify the grounds, my heart burst with love for you. You even mulched the new flowers....of course it would be shaped like a BIG HEART. Your heart is the biggest one I have ever seen. Thank you for being a Good Man in such a scary time in our lives. Thank you for walking in Love. I bless you and your family...may you sleep well every night knowing the good you have done. Love from Winston Salem, NC...Gina J. Wyatt
I really enjoyed working on this project. I have been researching to find a few more and I have found a few that I can't wait to clean up.
I found one with my dad today that hasn't been active in over 100 years. It has been hide by time in the woods.
@@LawnCareJuggernaut They say that butterflies are kisses from Heaven. How sweet that a butterfly came to visit you. The flowers & mulch into the shape of a heart, & then the butterfly...brought tears to my eyes. May God continue to bless, guide, & watch over you & your beautiful, growing family. 🙏👣🤰👨👩👧👦🐾👼🦋
Amen, @ginawyatt8129. Beautifully said.🦋
You are an inspiration in a world so full of self. Thank you, and your family for what you are doing.
It broke my heart and made me cry to see the forgotten cemetery in the forgotten people. The heart of flowers was wonderful. You and your daughter washing those stones was amazing. I have no family there but thank you
Thank you for spending the time and effort needed to clean up this cemetery. I suppose it's only natural that after immediate family members die off or move away, there is no one left to care about the graveyard or the markers, so what you did means a great deal to the community where the cemetery exists. I am a volunteer with the grass-roots effort called 'By Memorial Day' whose goal it is to clean all veteran headstones in private, public, and municipal cemeteries each year 'By Memorial Day.' We can always use more volunteers, so if anyone reading this comment wants to know more, search TH-cam for the channel, 'Honor Your DNA'. Again, thank you Kevin. Mowing lawns for free to help people out shows great character. Doing that work - and more - for people who can never thank you is even greater.
I have seen a lot of landscaping jobs on TH-cam. But this one has to be my very best one to watch. You and your family did an awesome job. And God will reward you for doing something from your heart. Planting those shrubs and flowers looks really good. And the mulch in a shape of a heart is awesome. The best thing you did was putting flags on those who fought for United States of America. I'm from Canada but what you did was so awesome. You showed love for those who are buried there. I hope people will come and visit this small graveyard and plant a flower or two. I prayed that God will protect and bless your family. God loves you and the people that are buried there love you too. Cause there spirits are with you in a good and loving way. Keep up the great work you do. 😇 You are an angel sent by God. God has given each of us a guardian angel. And God will watch over you and your family. God Bless my Brother in Christ.
What a beautiful and thoughtful comment 💕💕
Agree 💯 💜
Great comment. You are a good person. This shows it.
As someone who is into genealogy and the keeper of much of my family’s history, thank you. This helps so many people in their search to connect and find info. These cemeteries are often the connection to finding that missing link. The more we care for them the better. Also, no one deserves to be forgotten. So thank you.
😊Odin
Yes. Same here. Cemeteries are dear to me. I’m also into Genealogy and am the keeper of the family history. I visit lots of cemeteries. Always sad when I see one neglected. My family makes annual donations to 4 family cemeteries to help support the maintenance of them.
By chance does anyone remember which video had the Hickson family headstones? It is my family name and trying to locate it
Thank you for being so respectful to these graves & to the graves of soldiers. My late husband was 30 yrs Army. I know he is so proud of you!!! Thank you!!!
The drone footage makes a great impact of the size of the project. What you accomplished in two days is stunning, Kevin and family. ❤️ Thank you for your care and stewardship of our history.
My family has been cemetary caretakers on both sides for generations. A heart felt thank you for tending this neglected cemetary. So often small rural cemeteries have no funding and go by the way side and no one willing to do the work. It is about respect and I appreciate your hard work.
When you put the flags on the graves that had been lost, I cried. That was such a powerful statement, showing that they are not forgotten and making sure others don’t forget them. Great job, sir. Thank you.
Of all your wonderful cleanups , this one got to my heart strings the most. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for restoring some dignity to a forlorn and abandoned cemetery. I love the garden done in the shape of a heart. As a young child I used to think it was sad that cemeteries became forgotten and fell into disrepair. A sad indictment on societal values of the dead, IMO. I always wished there was a national remember the dead and clean a cemetery day, maybe one day. You and your family did an amazing job restoring beauty and showing respect and care into peoples final resting place.
I watched you and your family with all your hearts working on this project. All that came to my mind when you planted that garden at the end was that you had a “heart of gold.” I woke up this morning thinking about your future-born son and this thought came to me. His name shall be Gabriel, which means man of God. Legally, his name shall be Gabriel, but his nickname to all will be Gabe (because you wouldn’t like to call him Gab). Remember that Gabriel in the Bible is an angel who announced Jesus’ birth. That was a high ranking angel. I am sure you will consider your son as an angel!
I love the work that you do.
I love it!
Omg!! That is a perfect name for your son!!! He will be your angel sent from God!! Gabriel/Gabe is fitting for your son.
Perfect. I too agree with the name Gabriel ❤️
I agree with on your sons name are you coming to Illinois as I would love to meet you even if I am in a apartment
Thank you for cleaning that cemetery. My grandparents cemetery was bought by a man that didn't know it was a cemetery. It's out of state from where I live, and family keeps up our part of it. Last year a young couple took on the whole cemetery and cleaned 6 foot plus weeds, fallen trees, and garbage that people dumped. Once that clean up was made, the historical society added it to there monthly clean up. You might bring notice to this and by your kindness get this place taken care of for good. At least we were lucky to have that happen for us. As for as baby names we just welcomed baby Luke Donald into our family on Sept 3rd. I wanted it to be Luke Brian, but they wouldn't go for it. LOL
Would they let you trim the trees? So many of them look like they are falling. Thank you for caring for their resting places.
I am so impressed with what you and your family did for the people that have this cementary close to them and even ties to people buried there. It was a very respectful, caring and kind act. Thank you for being a such a generous man and also to your wife and daughter joining in your efforts.
This was so kind and generous of you and your time. Your family's help and the two guys you met. I know you are worn out but God gave you the strength to accomplish this Great Deed you did for the people buried here and their family. God will truly bless you for all the hard work and the states you have given your time too. You have a great heart and we all love you for it. It looks Amazing.........
"People are people everywhere." - We really are all more alike than we think. Kindness and empathy for others, no matter how different, can go so far.
I can honor the soldier as a person as well as our collective history without any hatred for what his beliefs might have been. (despite them being very different from my own)
I love seeing you and your family serving others so selflessly. Your daughter's tiny hands scrubbing those headstones, many of them for babies themselves, was so sweet and powerful.
You all are really making the world a better place one lot at a time. The end was beautiful with the flowers.
All my respect to you, your wife and your beautiful little daughter, you're a big example for her. Thank you for sharing your videos to us.
Must admit that we shed a few tears watching this vlog especially whilst our queen, our monarch is being laid to rest. Care and compassion is an attribute that you deliver with compassion. From the UK x
You two are so cute together! Teaching your daughter to respect the graves of people young and old who have passed away is heartwarming.
Seriously Kevin you,Your Family and the 2 guys who helped….There are Just No Words with Praise enough to put down as a comment So I will just say in my own way:- Truly Inspirational and Here in the UK we unfortunately see more headstones kicked over or Spray painted with Graffiti so to see this is truly an Eye opener and A Faith in Humanity still exists out there with people like you.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is one of the most emotionally charged videos that I’ve watched! The kindness you and your family show is, by far, off the charts! The tears stared when your young daughter helped clean the gravestones…..I lost it! Teaching her respect and appreciation for those who came before! What a life lesson!
You and your daughter honored the deceased with your caring hands of scrubbing the tombstones, clearing the graveyard, adding the many flags and planting those pretty flowers. You really put a lot of care and love in this project. Your family is so blessed to have you in their lives.
May your baby boy be blessed in good health as well as the rest of the family.❤
I love how you get your kids and family involved with helping your community. It is so beautiful to me. These are lasting memories your children will never forget. You are raising beautiful hearted children
what you guys have done here is soul-cleaning work. This is the kind of thing that brings good karma. You are raising a good human being and a productive member of society by getting your daughter involved in community work like this. Thank you!
I'm not that religious, but I don't know what else to say than "God bless you and your family!"
Your daughter is so precious, and you're doing a damn good job raising her and teaching her compassion!
This was my favorite project that you have shared! I am our family's genealogist and so appreciate your hard work to honor those who lived and were loved. Thanks for sharing your interaction with the Elders. I have a tender place in my heart for them, my oldest son served his mission in North Carolina. They are hard workers and love to help.
Feeling blessed watching this family of angels restore a hallowed graveyard to its original rustic elegance.
I started crying to see you do so much work as people drive by and hardly notice. You are truly a great American. Thank you from Phoenix, Arizona.
Unfortunately time is forgetting it little by little as family and friends of the deceased pass away but you’ve given the cemetery a breath of fresh air. Who knows how many will notice but that’s not what’s important, you’ve paid your respects and shown your family what your priorities are. Family and community. I love this
Those little hands of your daughter cleaning the forgotten tombstones, so precious. It's amazing you cleaned that place and gave back the respect every human deserves. Great job Kevin, greetings from Poland 😊
Your respect for wildlife and putting an id to them is noted. Another reason why I keep watching your videos
The way you said “alright Joseph I’ll let you get back to your rest” when you had stood his stone up again ❤ and the way you were sure to put the seashells someone had left there back on the next one! Amazing job
I can definitely tell how hard that transformation was. I am truly amazed at the detail that you went to, to ensure that the place was not only accessible, but beautiful, too. Paying tribute to those fallen by either a war or natural causes. It doesn't matter...north/south... war/disease. They are all deserving of respect as a fellow human beings. You did that in a big way, here. By the way, I bet you slept good after this one!! lol Take care LCJ and all of your other viewers!
I am so impressed that you took the initiative to do what the community hadn't done . Cemeteries all over are neglected and forgotten. Thank you for your big beautiful heart. You are one of the good guys.
I just found your page so I know you won't see my comment, but this was so astonishingly beautiful. I cried when your baby was cleaning the stone for baby Harmon and when you placed all the flags. What a wonderful way to honor these forgotten people. Bless you and your family.
I see everything lol
For real though thank you so much for taking the time to support the channel.
well you got me on this one Kevin and in more ways than one. Doing something besides homes/businesses is rare with lawncare videos. All the xtra you did with the flags/flowers really got me. Don't worry about uncovering a head stone, there's a guy that has a yt channel and that's almost all he does, find abandoned cemeteries and clears off the headstones. He's in GA so alot of what he finds are confederate soldiers. And then the Mormon boys show up, I lost it and here's why. I'm not but most of my family are Mormon. I just talked to my step sister, a Mormon, last night to tell her what's going on with me and the prayers I needed. And here are two boys praying for your followers. coincidence? I think not. Bless you for doing this and all the xtra you put into it.
As a teenager 6 decades ago, I cut the grass at my church's cemetery by myself. Once. There were no string trimmers, so it was done the hard way. With the machinery you have, one man can do a huge amount of work in one day. This was a spectacular job! Your daughter learned so much working with you. God bless you and your family. If you are Christian, there are plenty of Biblical name: Adam, Seth, Noah, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Peter, Samuel, Joseph, Abraham.... etc.
❤👶🏻 Baby names for your son to be:.....Colton, Liberty, Joaquin, Finn, Dallas, Garrison, Dusty, Zachary, Kingston, Trace,
, Jackson, Jessie, Warren, Walker,Ericsson, Lincoln, Grifter, Leslie, Duke, Tucker, Hunter...and Christian ❣️✋😊Happy for you❣️
YOU ARE AMAZING!!! A HUGE THANK YOU!!! So many neglected cemeteries, some can't even be found because they are so overgrown. GOD BLESS YOU!!!
Thank you, Kevin. You did a great job on the cemetery cleanup. What a great way to show honor and respect those who have gone before us.
Kevin, you bring tears to my eyes seeing you transformed the cemetery so beautiful. All these men fought for our country and it is sad to see how they are treated. An abandoned cemetery that no one took the time to care for. May God bless you, your wife and daughter who find the time to go there and clean it up. Can you do one thing for me, please wear a mask. All that dust is not good for your lungs. Don’t you want to live to see your daughter through college and then get married? Please wear a mask for Christ sake. Blessings. 🙏
As a Genealogists, I love what you did for this cemetery, it is no longer a sad forgotten place. May your efforts be and bring Blessings to you and others.
I did a few other cemeteries over the summer I am looking for a genealogists that might help me research some information on some of the people from the sites. If you have any interest send me an email at amjuggernaut@gmail.com thank you so much
@@LawnCareJuggernaut I sent you an email.
@@maryhelton-lasser1597 Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 🤗
@@LawnCareJuggernaut I wrote another post but I feel something is weird with an abandoned cemetery. You might want to look into that. Even if there was a hurricane every state has an agency that has jurisdiction over cemeteries. It's because of public health. You may have stumbled into more than hidden graves. If a local paper would be interested, your cemetery finds would make wonderful stories.
@@jacksonpeterson7501 Thank you.
By cleaning and videoing those old headstones, you are giving a gift to the descendants of the deceased for years into the future. I’ve gained an interest in genealogy recently and have been looking for my ancestors’ graves. I can’t tell you how thrilling it feels whenever I find a photo of a family headstone online. Such a wonderful connection to the past!
There are two websites "find a grave" and "billion graves" that rely on volunteers to photograph and transcribe headstones. Its rewarding serving others by doing this.
@@KMGAD Excellent websites, both of them.
I did my tree a long time ago and what I discovered is that a lot of my ancestors didn't have marked graves. Go back a little over 100 years and where they're from they would end up being in mass graves after being interred for a while (to save space) so where they are now, I'd only have a general idea...
Awesome of you to return and clean up the cemetery. It’s touching to see your daughter cleaning the headstones. I admire you and your family working together on this project. Blessings to you and your family❣️I loved ❤the finishing touch of adding flowers. The butterfly means an angel was showing appreciation for your work. People like you reminds me of the good in the world❣️
I absolutely love how you taught your daughter the importance of caring for the old cemetery stones!!!! Rachel is so adorable!!!!! I think that Kevin Raphael would make an awesome name!!
Hi there 😄 you've a gorgeous picture on your profile! Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is appreciated 🤗
I live a football fields length away from my towns cemetery. I walk through it a lot in the nicer months and I say there names out loud. I often wonder when I look at a headstone, when the last time there name was said out loud. I figure they all deserve that much. Very nice of you to do this. You have a huge heart. ❤️
As a genealogist “thank you”! I visit gravesites to gather information. It’s so much nicer to be able to walk-up to a site without getting feet tangled in briars and the like. Bless you!
There are actually people like you? You are an inspiration to give back. The best boy name I have heard is my grandson's name, MATEO. It means GIFT. The respect you showed the veterans is heartwarming. I was spit on at Los Angeles ariport less than an hour after I landed after flying in a cargo plane back from Vietnam with hundreds of other soldiers packed like sardines for over 20 hours. Just two days ago some sad person made dispargaging remarks about my Vietnam combat unit sticker I had on the back window of my truck. I had no idea I was a murdering sadist. When will it all stop? Your acknowlegement for these heros made me feel good. Thank you for letting me vent. Your inspirational speeches are AWESOME. I wish I could mesmorize audiences like these speakers do. THANK YOU
I feel like you would need a high confidence in your skills to tackle a project like this. I would be too worried about crashing into a grave stone, knocking it over, or chipping an edge of one. Massive props
I have been watching your videos for a couple of months now and have always been impressed by your positive attitude and willingness of help others with your physical efforts. The voiceover about enterprise and getting better and better, not lesser & lesser made me think differently about getting older. Anyone can see that your were very committed to this project. Thanks for all the little extras you put into it. When I was a child up in central NY State, I used to help my mother cleanup the untended graves in our little town's cemetery just before Memorial Day, One that day there was always a parade with the high school marching band leading it. The parade ended in the cemetery with veterans shooting off a salute. The heart shape was nice, but I thought you had planned it that way! Also glad to see in the comments from a thankful relative of someone buried there. Blessing to you and your increasing family.
I thinkin this is my favorite video, next to when you saved the beautiful dog of course. Beautiful family, the respect y'all shown with the loved ones passed on, the 2 young gentlemen Elder Littlefield and Elder Terry whom I want to thank for their prayer as I will pray for y'all!! Thank you all ✌🏻❤️✝️😊
What a tremendous upbinging this young lady is getting. Service and compassion is so sorely needed. Thank you for making the world just a little better.
To see young boys help out and then stand and prey, it brought tears to my eyes , their parents should be very proud of them ..I just hope after all this very hard work that local people look after this lovely old cemetery. Best wishes to you and your family and new baby….From. Cheshire ,England,
Thank you for doing this service here. We all need to love our neighbors as our selves as God wants us to do. God bless your family.
Neat cemetery project. I love how you involved your daughter by letting her clean grave markers. Such a respectful thing to honor those who have passed before us.
So good seeing you do this with your little girl,I'm proud of all of you, wifey too, you're all so giving. Love it Joss Tasmania Australia
I commend you for what you've done for the forgotten grave sites. The respect you have shown for those who have gone before you
I also appreciate the services you're giving through your heart. We need more people like you
Started watching you a while ago and had to drop you a line..you are such a wonderful man, so nice to know there are still people like you in the world !! Thank you for all you do..best of luck on your new son coming, he's going to be wonderful with the big heart his daddy has.
😊
What a great helper you got there, awesome to see how dad and daugter and your wive work together for people you never know. Also the boys at the end,great. With tears in my eyes greetings from the Netherlands ,Harry
I just viewed this particular transformation. This is beyond any video of this type that I have ever seen. By far and away my all time favorite. This was a wonderful, giving project. It was great to see your young daughter helping with cleaning the headstones. I know this is an older video and you probably won’t even see this comment but thank you so much for all you do and especially this project. Keep up your excellent work and God Bless You.
As someone who has spent over 40 years finding and listing cemeteries like this one, I hope your posting this video will encourage other lawn care guys to follow in your footsteps. There are thousands of these cemeteries across the US in need of cleaning up. There are over 200 of these in Gaston and Lincoln county, NC.
Kevin you and your family’s hard work is so heart warming to watch. I sat here and watched all you done to help the memory of all the people in this cemetery live on and not be forgotten. It made me wish I were there to help you throughout this renovation. I hope you reach the hearts of many throughout your journey in life. Thank you
I’m not ashamed to admit that I got emotional and teary eyed as the headstones were being cleaned. It meant a lot to me that you and your family cleaned up that graveyard. I’m hoping someone nearby will maintain it now that you’ve done the hard work.
Thankk You for making this cemetary a Restful place once again.
It doesn’t matter who is buried there,they are all human beings.Thank you for the respect you’ve shown by clearing this cemetery.
Have you ever gotten in trouble for clearing a derelict overgrown area without permission? I personally don’t give a skinny rat’s *** but there are so many Karen’s out there who love to object about things.
Your daughter’s help was wonderful to watch! How lovely to teach her about giving back at such a young age! ❤
What a kind, thoughtful, and giving thing to have done!! For all of the families of those resting in this cemetery, you have received quite a special blessing!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow this video made me smile and cry. Seeing you your wife and your daughter all working together. Your daughter did such a wonderful job with love and you guys were teaching her also about history. It was nice the Mormon boys helped.. but I'm glad that you did the rest by your self because those plants and flags were planted with love... Thank you for your love and compassion that's shows in your family and your work..God bless you as you keep blessing others.
