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

A big shoutout to those 2 guys who do an important job and helped us all learn.
Those 2 guys are deadened and emotionless, just like most people on the earth today.
Thank you Ron for showing us how cremations work. Also thanks to the guys at Oak Hill who made it possible. Knowledge is power.
@@sandrayancheski6806 I don’t what you just watched but Ron recorded this video with dignity. He records all his videos with dignity. The person being cremated was not identified. Their body was not shown.
Since my husband was cremated two years ago, I have been morbidly curious about the process. This was very informative and also terrifying. His remains are very heavy, since he was a big guy, 6’3”. The undertaker gave us a small glass tube of my husband’s “ashes” so we could spread them in the Rocky Mts. They kind of look like kosher salt. The rest are in a carved wooden box that I keep here. I will also be cremated, which to us is better than rotting away in the ground. Oh god I need to watch a Hallmark xmas movie or something now to cleanse my brain.
Beautiful way to "cleanse the brain" is catch the Secret Santa 2022 East Idaho News, does the heart good ...on youtube.
My parents were both cremated, I am also going to be cremated, I believe our soul leaves the body ( shell ) upon death, I do not want to take up precious land. For those who find cremation so horrid you need to watch the numerous amounts of neglected overgrowth in cemeteries in this country.
@@zarahmclauren1459 I love love love Nate Eaton and Secret Santa! He deserves a Pulitzer for his reporting/investigation into Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell.
@@az-wr1lb than we are in agreement - you have your belief and I have mine , Blessings to you 🙏
@@az-wr1lb that is about as likely to happen as me winning tomorrow night's lottery drawing, cremation started approximately 2500 B.C. , in the highly unlikely event that cremation would no longer be available my choice would be to relocate to a civilization that was not self absorbed in having a minute amount of funeral homes and burial sites become wealthier 🤗
Thanks guys for caring for the dead y'all have awesome heart 💜
Heart?? They don't seem like they have a heart at all.They seem pretty emotionless and dead to me. "Processing" bodies? Most people these days are becoming cold and dead in their hearts, if they even have one.
I understand those that want to be burned but not me. Put me in the ground. Everyone in my family, mom, dad, has chosen cremation but not me. That basement was creepy. I am not against cremation, just don't wanna be. I remember when we scattered some of dad's ashes in his fields, you could feel the fragments of bone, really creepy....thanks for sharing Ron
OMG, this was an eye opening episode. Now I know what's going to happen to my remains when I pass. Kind of scary. I told my son, make sure I'm really dead before they put me in the oven. Thank you Ron for this educational video of Cremation 101.😳
Omg yes before they put me in the oven make sure I’m really dead!
😅@@cindygomez5414
Im in my 40s. I have had some tragic deaths happen and some normal ones in the recent past...and for a long time I was uncomfortable about death and had many questions. Ron, I am sooo glad to have found your channel and have watched many episodes (have been watching since the pandemic)! You are such a great teacher, researcher and respectable person. I have also helped others through your channel. I can not THANK YOU enough! Not to sound corny but... My life is better because of this channel. This episode in particular was very good.
PLEASE DO MORE!!! Thank you Ron this is absolutely amazing to see. Usually it's all done behind the scenes & nobody is allowed past the funeral police, lol!!. 30 + years ago I was at my grandmother's funeral & would wander away looking behind curtains or open doors. Other relatives would get upset with me telling me to hush & sit down. What was so great about peeking behind stuff is my father was right there following me! He was just as curious about it as I was!!! We always felt like we're not allowed to see how it's all done. Honestly families should be more involved in the dying process....only my opinion of course. This was the best video ever!!! You could make a horror movie in that basement!!!! Almost wonder if theres old asbestos down there...? Safe travels & thanks again for the cool video.
That made me giggle, picturing Dad peeking around corners with his child.
That's cute you and your dad curious. Reminds me of what my dad used to do. That man was kid inside an adult body. He was cremated as well.
I never knew there was so much noise that took place in one of those cremation places. The noise, the smell, and the heat would certainly take a toll on me. And not only that, 'but what about someone's state of mind. I know I would probably lose my grip. Oh! my gosh. I just could not do it. God bless those who can tolerate working in those places.
Aaaaamen!!!
God bless "those who can tolerate"??? I'd say it takes a "special" type of person to do this type of thing all right -- one that is emotionless and probably enjoys what they're doing.
@@mb1496 That was my own opinion. You did not have to take it so personal.
I love this channel. You peep into the places no one else will and that satisfies my curiosity! These guys were so down to earth and seemed super cool. Thanks Ron!
yep--not bashful of my morbidity!
@@FacesoftheForgotten - We love you for it!!!
@@FacesoftheForgotten I would have like to know how they make sure all your remains are cleaned off the burning table? How is it not possible that some of your dust is mixed with someone else? As of my religion on the last day you rise up. What about your remains are with others in their urns ? What if your dust is mixed with others and scattered about because that person chose to scatter ashes anywhere, ocean, mountain?
That was something else! Seeing the cremation was …I can’t even find a right word…😬😳 the mess in a basement was unexpected…compared a beauty of the building…the books…absolute treasures! Fascinated episode all around! Thank you Ron!
With corpulent bodies the fat melts and drains out of the retort. That stuff piled in the basement might be decades of hardened up body sludge. Older oil fired ones didn't get hot enough to burn it all up, so it melted like candle wax, then solidified into that stuff. Not 100% that's what it is, but that's my guess. I was a mortician years ago.
Now that’s creepy. Body sludge sitting in the basement. Yikes!!!!
You should read about the Lamb funeral home story in California.
Very interesting thank u sir
Ron, thank you for this amazing tour.
My grandmother explained to me the cremation process as she was able to view a cremation inprocess in mid 1930's. It is just like she described it to me as a child. Back in the day the attendant brushed each nail from the casket and carefully brushed all the remains in a small box.
Thank you. I believe knowing how things work alleviates fear. My time at the mortuary setting up funerals from our flower shop showed me how my family members were taken care of. My husband passed this year and I was worried about the cremation part. Now I understand. I appreciate this tour. 👍♥️🐩
If finally seeing this horrendous, barbaric and sickening process alleviates your fear, then I have to wonder what exactly you were afraid of to begin with.
Ron. Consider checking out the bloody mausoleum in Cleveland, Tennessee. It’s also haunted locals say. Quite a tragic story that goes along with it.
One of your creepiest vlogs, Ron. I wanted to look away but I couldn't! I don't know how you got those guys who work there to take you around the whole place like that, but you have the knack! Thanks again for a great experience.
You usually need an appointment to tour crematories. I know some do charge for witnessing one. Some don't. I was offered it when my mom was cremated at her request but I would've had nightmares to this day so I kindly declined the funeral director and Crematory's offer to witness it.
This was quite interesting. All things I have never seen before. That basement area is a nightmare!! Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing this. Both my parents were cremated and I always wondered about the process. It's hard to think about them being a whole then going to ash. Especially since my mom passed away last year Christmas Eve. Both their ashes are combined now sitting in our 150 year old secretary. It just amazes me. Thank you again so much, for giving us these fantastic videos that combine compassion, respect and your wonderful smile!
This was a very educational video Ron. Very interesting I've always wanted to see the process of a body being creamated. Ron I appreciate when you take the time to educate us on the different subjects of cemeteries and the mortality of the deceased. I want to give a thanks to the gentleman who gave us the tour 👍
Cremating is a process I have always wondered about and want done for me. It was scary to watch but you did an awesome job with this video. I could not look away.
Why would a spirit want to hang around a crematorium, I'd be like let me outta here. 🙀😸
I am still having my shell cremated, I believe the spirit leaves the body upon death. I refuse to take up precious land , just so a funeral home and monument company can get richer !
I'm almost ashamed by my morbid curiosity! As a surgery nurse for 29yrs, I often felt the same when we had a patient death. Almost intrusive in a way. But it is a learning experience, and I took it as that. Always offered a prayer for their peaceful crossing. Kewl video today Ron, thank you
Thanks for airing this Ron
Definitely being cremated after seeing how Graves are desicrated and cemeteries get abandoned and left to vandalism.
Best to just be dust once again.
Bones don't burn. I've seen them ground them up. My father opposed cremation. He made sure in his will not to be cremated or burned. It disturbed him a lot..one of my nephews was murdered in Maine. It cost a lot to have him sent back as Cargo. In a card board box. His mom chose to Cremate him. My father didn't like it. Why they did this knowing how my Father felt.it was not a money issue. I'm just going to hush. Being murdered away from home, no charges filled no autopsy was did. They sent him back home in the blood soaked clothes he was found in. We had a service. We could view the body. But his sister chose to have him cremated after the service. It did something to my father. He was not the same. A few years later my father had a heart attack. A few days before that my father had to be rushed to the hospital. In his hand was a program from my nephew Service. He just didn't accept the fact the body was burned. He said the same when a cousin was cremated. My father said it was not natural. We was meant to go back to the dust as stated in the Bible. We never would of cremated him. He was buried as his wanted to be. He was Old school. I think it's the fire that bothered my dad. I chose to be buried Aldo. To each his or her own. It was seeing them grind the bones that bothered me. The noise creeped me out. 😑 I have Medical training so I was able to observe that. It's been maybe 8 years. It may be different. I know there's water cremation now. Best to ask a professional. I do know teeth and bones don't burn. Best to ask. Or just plan to do it and don't ask questions. God Bless whatever you choose.✌️🖖💞🙂👋. Vee and family.
Thanks for your latest upload. Glad you covered such a taboo subject so well and as tactfully and with grace as always . If only more spoke about these things and death in particular I am sure it would reassure people and also comfort relatives to be able to discuss their ' loss '
Keep up the good work and keep well and safe !
Great video! Nothing wrong showing how it's work. Thanks 👍
Thank you Ron and both of you wonderful men that showed us how everything is done.
Thank you Dan for taking us along. Very interesting tour.
I'm sorry but that basement should be condemned and cleared out.
This is an amazing video. Thanks for your hard work! Also, thank you to the men that made this video possible. I have a lot of respect for the guys that take such care in handling the departed. You guys are all awesome.
I love the degree of Enthusiasm and Rigorrr(mortis)
Bahahaha. So Fun!
Gotta say ron after following you for over 2 year's this is without doubt one of the most badass stream's you have ever done it's a horror movie but it's reality given us a insight into the final stages of ppls life's up close and personal ... Cool!! Thank's for this #unique stream mate
You took the words write out of my mouth..... Wow,. Super interesting. I don't mind either way,. But rather be Buried....
@@jerrycapanear8227 yeah but never got any 💚 from ron on this one for some reason.
@@johno30197 Rob might not have seen it. Well that’s what I’m hoping for lol
Ok that's all I can take. As soon as he answered my question how long does it take, I was done. Thank you Ron
So how many people want natural burials now. Me!! Thank you guys for this one
Right? So natural….leave out the casket and everything else. Just put me six feet under.
Ron, thank you for taking all of us on such great trips, with you and very interesting places!! This is such a neat place and very scary in a way, wow! I just know you'll never unsee what you saw... and for that I'm sorry. we love what you do and thank you.
This was very very respectful 🙏🏼 toward that person and their family.😇💔💔💔🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💔💔💔💔💔😇😇😇
That was a fascinating episode Ron! I believe cremation is more civilised for the family who are left behind. They’re not standing around a grave in miserable weather for an hour or so but that’s just my feelings on it, I’m sure others will not agree. I had jewellery made for myself and my daughter with my son’s ashes and we both wear them every day and find comfort in this. Greetings from Scotland 🏴
Great job guys!!! Love 💕 the people who can do those kinds of jobs!!! We need y’all!!!
This was fascinating, but a little creepy. I plan on being cremated so it was a look into things to come. I always enjoy your adventures, Ron. Thank you Al and Greg for doing the jobs you do. Most people wouldn't.
Ron thank you for showing us this process, thank you to the two gentlemen from Oak Hill, their jobs are very important, especially to the families and their loved ones. 🙏💖🙏
Ron, I've loved every one of your videos & am working on Intangible Quests as well, but THIS is by far my favorite video you've done. The wealth of knowledge, behind the scenes look, as well as the excitement you had at being able to explore. All of it just made this wonderful & immersive!
Do I want to see the basement of an old crematorium? Why, yes, yes I do! Fascinating. Thank you!
Wow! I have learned so much watching this video. Thanks to all of you guys.
Thank you to everyone involved in the making of this video.
I have asked several times if I could walk a faithful pet, friend or loved one to the crematorium.
I was always told no but it is still preferable to me as both a grieving loved one and at some date, deceased.
Greg and Al have such interesting jobs thank you for the tour and treating the deceased with respect 💖
My father was cremated. He passed 1year and a half ago. It's very fascinating.
That does it for me. No cremation!!! No bone crushing! Thx Ron, this is interesting & terrifying at same time. God bless the ppl who can work here - I could never do it. 😮
I tend to agree with you. I don’t like the bone crushing part at all. I can’t imagine that being done to one of my children. I personally thought everything burned up, and they sweeped you up into a vase!!!!
Thanks Ron for this, this clarified me on what cremation is, My grandfather was cremated butall i thought ismthey just threw his body onto the fires,but now i see about 95 percent sure he was treated with dignity and respect and my thoughts on cremation were totally ignorant.So much respect for doing this piece, I know his body is there just in a different form.
Wow that was creepy Ron. Thanks for sharing the video with us.
Absolutely amazing video Sir, one of your best so far
That was awsome, thank you so much all of you for the tour... thumb's up! 👍
Fascinating! Thank you for showing us and educating us. A big thank you to the 2 gentlemen !
Thank you, Ron❤️
Excellent video. Never new what they did. Thanks 🙏👍 Ron.❤️
This is a surprise Ron!😊👍
Thank you Ron and guys for the tour I found it very interesting. I learned something’s new here tonight. Ron I really love your channel here and the IQ channel when you and team up. You two make a great team keep up the great work.
Thank you, gentlemen. Great job! Very informative and done with class.
Wow, that was quite a learning experience and an adventure! Thanks to you and those 2 great guys for taking us along!
Interesting now I know how it'sgoing to work when my time comes
So much respect to you all
Fascinating stuff!
My Dad was cremated but never watched how it was done very interesting. Thank you for showing us this guys.After my mom died he was put in her casket in his urn at her feet so they be together forever.
I never liked cremation and now I know why. If I ever had any doubts this just cleared them up. NO WAY!!! I'm am very glad you got to go in to the book room because I've wanted to know what was in those books ever since I watched your original episode. That was cool. The records before computers. So glad they hung on to them. They basement though is a dangerous mess. I hope one day it can get cleaned up by a very ambitious crew of strong men 💪
It would be pretty cool to do some EVPs in those basement tunnels! Spooky!!
We’re working on getting in there
That said, I don’t believe spirits reside where the bodies are buried, rather where the people died (if they do exist at all).
But we will probably dabble in it, but more interested in doing some exploring!!
Nice to know how it's done!!! Thanks Ron !!
This place is absolutely gorgeous in a creepy way, I love stuff like this!! Wish this video would never end!!! Great job!!
Absolutely fascinating. Wonderful and informative. thanks guys
My dad was cremated 3 years ago. This video answered so many questions I have had. Thank you for this video Ron!
OMG I loved this episode. It was so interesting. I loved when you found the books or old logs of the people there. That's just an awesome find. I've always been curious about this. I have a cousin who works for a funeral home and she has got some stories lol.
Wow!!!! I'm amazed!
Very fascinating!!! Wonderfully done and with much respect by all of you. Thank You for this otherwise unknown side of things... Take Care!
Thanks to the guys for the tour very interesting ❤
Thanks for posting this Ron, I found it to be very informative and interesting!
Thanks guys.
This was sooo interesting. I've always wanted to see how this is done. Great job Ron!
Wow!!! Very interesting. Thank you Ron! This was great and much respect and thank you to the 2 gentleman there.
Great video thanks for sharing Ron !!!
Gosh, this was creepy but so fascinating! Thanks for the video, Ron. This is one I won't soon forget. P.S. You're a lot braver than I am!
Wow😮 that’s intense!! What a job! TY gentlemen for showing us how it works!! TY Ron ♥️
Thank you Ron, this is the way I feel I want to be disposed of when my soul leaves this body. This helped me to make the decision more so. Thank you again, it was helpful.
Fascinating well done literally Brilliant blog keep up the good work Best one yet
Very educational🤗
Kids need to learn at an early age not to fear death.
You do realize that you were surrounded by carcass smoke.
My mama is close to this journey. Jesus Awaits Her 🙏🏽♥️
I just caught up watching your new post. This lands in one of your most fascinating videos yet!
Ashes to Ashes, from dust to dust.👏👏👏
Disturbing.
Educational...but disturbing.
Thank you guys for the tour! It was a little creepy but I have to remember, it's just the empty carcass, not the person.
Excellent video. And absolutely fascinating. I love your channel. Keep up the good work! much love from the UK
This was a really interesting video, Ron! Thanks for sharing.
Very interesting. Those books should be saved and taken out before they get ruined. Lots of info for families who need info.
Thankyou this video is so interesting
Shout out to the two gentlemen doing their hard job , it takes a special person
Really interesting!!
Very interesting indeed! Thanks for the adventure.
Very interesting & educational. Thank you for sharing!
Wow awesome job Ron
Very interesting to see. Thanks for sharing this
Very interesting video! I want to sit in that room of books and look at them all!!
My cousin works in a crematorium and says the children are the hardest to do.
I can only imagine 🥺💔
I certainly could not witness the burning of a child.
I couldn’t do it.
😥
I bet so.
