It’s so sad to see a person’s home like this when they have passed away, it’s like their life meant nothing

[@myowndrum286]

Damn sad, isn't it? However, you can take nothing with you when you're called home. I had a very wealthy friend who passed some years ago. Someone at the service for him asked me "How much did he leave?" I replied, 'Everything! You take nothing with you" The material world is immaterial when you leave this plane.

[@stephanieann1213]

Wouldn’t it be terrible to look down upon your home soon after your passing and see that someone had done just this to your home? You can’t take it with you, but there’s no reason to destroy something like this 😢😭💔 there’s many people in need of a home smh.

[@cyclinggirl3212]

@@stephanieann1213 I don't know why, but it seems common place here in the UK that people just can't help themselves, they've always got to vandalise empty properties. Sad.

[@diane9247]

@WyboGamErs I feel exactly that way. Abandoned homes - or even warehouses, offices, etc. - feel like lonely souls to me. All of the emotions and energy invested inside those walls...was it just meaningless, in the end?

[@carolinehoward180]

How heartbreaking that Gerrys home has been trashed like that. There is such a warm, calm, loving vibe to this house. Imagine his son returning and seeing the house he grew up in being so damaged and empty of his parents now. Maybe he did and was too grief stricken to do anything about it after vandals have been in. Once a home is violated like that it can’t ever be the same. Loved this explore. Thanks Adam 👏👏🖤🖤

[@johnhankinson1929]

surely he's been informed of his parents deaths , so why hasn't he appeared ? .it's more tragic these places aren't put back to use 😢

[@sugarsundae3400]

[@e-moshe]

I do think either the son has passed through there or another thoughtful Urbex person/relative has been. There are indications that things like books are nearly stacked in front of sprayed graffiti or photos, like next to the bed, were placed under objects to prevent them from being blown away. It suggests a good visitor at least.

[@cyclinggirl3212]

Maybe the son has also sadly passed away?

[@garyjohnson4608]

With his son moved away and his wife deceased, he must have felt so terribly alone that he died from a broken heart.

[@linda6666linda]

It really does my head in when people can't just go to look at the place, or stay away but no need for trashing what people once worked hard to build. Dead or not these people need respect.

[@veesbasement]

This is a family member of mine. He was my grandpa, very sad to see his happened, I never was even told…Thank you Adam for not destroying his place as some others did.

[@Carol......]

Why have your parents not been round to collect all those memories of him then?

[@veesbasement]

@@Carol...... Not sure honestly, I never knew this happened when it did since it was kept a secret clearly, lol. Although I do wonder why they did that.

@VeeahBee! I hope you can go there and salvage things from your grandpa's house.

You can see that has been a really lovely family home in its day .Why do people have to be so disrespectful and come in and vandalise that way. Really well done video .

[@sp.8.8]

I hope the son See's this, and comes back for his family's history, photos especially, before it's all been smash up and ripped apart lost forever.

[@seannefortier5916]

All of our collective history has been smashed up and ripped apart.

[@sarahstrong7174]

The son is quite likely dead as attempts will have been made to trace him. The government arrange for people to try to trace property owners & take the costs of doing so out of the inheritance. If he was around he would be aware that he probably would inherit the house.

[@sarahstrong7174]

It is not weird for the fridge not to smell if it was cleared out properly when Gerald left.

[@sarahstrong7174]

Gerald probably took clothes to the nursing home & quite possibly his tv. The single bed may have been for a carer.

Something about this house makes a person feel protective doesn’t it? Someone needs to rescue it. A huge boot to the fools that vandalized it. Thanks for sharing this cute loving home with us ❤️🇨🇦

What a sweet & beautiful cottage! Shame someone spray painted all over it! I would love to live there too! Thank you for taking us along with you on your adventures! Much love from Henderson Ga USA!

Hi Adam. The game board in the desk drawer is a cribbage board. It’s played with a deck of cards. This house is beautiful. Great find.

[@charlottebarbour1944]

Had some wonderful fun playing cribbage with my husband. Some great memories.

[@rosemarymantele318]

Yes, that is what I was going to saw, Cribbage Board.

[@bluelady111]

Whoever lived there, is someone who love natural light, simple, and have nothing to hide.

[@stephanieann1213]

I will never understand why people get a thrill over vandalism. It breaks my heart. It makes you wonder if they were raised like heathens? You are always so respectful Adam and I have such an affinity for your channel because of that. My favorite episode is the abandoned mansion. The story is so traumatic but the mansion was so beautiful in its day. Thanks for sharing all your endeavors. You are a great man.

[@nicoleking5697]

The respect that you have not only for the home but for their belongings is lovely. 💕

[@terrivines4071]

I love the little windows !! Can you imagine being really ill and this isolated ? Great job Adam !! Bits and bobs forever !

[@Scribeoflife]

This one actually got to me. It reminds me of my gran and grandads house when I was a kid and it's really sad that all of their things are just left there to decompose... Adam is probably the first person to be there since Gerry left that showed some interest and respect.

[@user-zs7uo5bi7s]

I agree with you! 😮

The level of disrespect these days is disgusting. Such a sweet and simple home. It looks Gerry had a good life. Great tour, nice vibes.

[@barbarasmith8404]

Adam thank u for being so tender and respectful of these and other’s things that have been left to decay. It is heart breaking how others just vandalize such precious things. This cute place I’m sure was a very warm and happy place back in the day. Great video as always. Love to u, Lisa and Dale. Keep safe❤️❤️

These people will come back home in the resurrection and they'll clean it up and be together once again. I love the warm feeling still in their home.

Lovely little cottage Adam, I would love living there. It makes me so angry when assholes go into these homes and cause so much damage. Karma will get them in the end. Thanks for a great video.

[@cypher7648]

I love seeing these homes and the incredibly personal touches left behind by the owners. This house looks as if well loved and kept, very sad to see how anyone could deface anything like this. But you have a way of overlooking it and showing us the original beauty of it all. Thanks again for another wonderful video 👌💯

The game board you found is for "cribbage". It is played with cards and when you make points, you move pegs on the board to keep track of points.

[@charlottebarbour1944]

What a beautiful little house. Loved the living room, good vibes! Another great video.

[@Soralella71]

Thank you for this beautiful video. I don't understand why a house remains unclaimed and abandoned. It gives me great sadness to see the house of someone who basically died alone, most probably because that's how I will die. I have no family, no husband, no children and no friends. I will make a Will to make sure when I die my house will go to charity (animal shelters). It feels strange that one day someone will clean/empty my house and throw away all my photos (I wonder what they'll say when they'll find the photos of me at metal concerts) and all my beautiful mother's photos, I cherish them so much, that's all I have left about her.

[@Annette1965]

It’s sad seeing these homes left like this. Did the son maybe not realize that everything was left behind like that or did he pass away too. We take pictures to pass down to family but his just sit there. Thanks for another great video, I love the two crocks on the kitchen counter and the outside doors.

[@marklittler784]

I think some kids were thrown into boarding schools so have a different kind of attitude or if single children they can have a different attitude to parents. Got the feeling the son would be quite elderly too by now if still alive.

[@JJ-iq8mi]

You're assuming these people were nice parents. Maybe they weren't. I work in an old people's home and regularly meet elderly folk whose grown-up children don't visit...and with good reason. I've also know elderly people who have outlived their children or whose children have emigrated. Maybe their child is well-off and didn't need the bother of sorting his inheritance. Maybe he's a drunk. There are thousands of reasons.

[@elizabethkusce2718]

Wow Adam that’s sad, doesn’t the government try to locate the son so that they can claim the home or at least the land.

[@katiehorsfield6034]

Broke my heart to see the vandalism, particularly because the home gave off such warm vibes. Your care, consideration and respect for the previous owners and their property set you apart from all the other urbex youtubers...and your sense of humour of course! Thanks for another excellent explore Adam.

Another story of a once loved home now just another forgotten place. It really pulled on the heartstrings this one. It's a shame the son didn't come back, unless the son has passed too? I love how you take care of the objects even when they have been trashed. You are respectful.

[@cyberash3000]

This was a lovely little place. I would also like to live there. I read When the Lion Feed when I was a teenager. Good book. I think the Gognac glasses were Sundae dishes. the shell you found was A Scallop shell. I used to get them from the fishmonger when I was a teenager , paint them, and he bought them back to decorate his shop. happy days. James Last was an orchestra leader. He used to pop up on Tv on a saturday evening as i remember. Easy listening music.

[@leonamcginnis]

I totally agree with everything that Caroline Howard said in her comment. In it's day I truly believe that the home actually smiled when visitors came to visit and it stayed warm and loving for Jerry until his last days. I really get disgusted when I see the graffiti that ignorant, destructive people do to abandoned homes like this one. I felt a smile from the living room area when we went into it, like a welcoming feeling. I imagined what it would've been like living there before the deaths and destruction happened. I would've been just fine living in the countryside like that is. Thank you Adam for sharing this video with us.

Absolutely Love your videos Adam! The little wooden game board with holes in it in the cupboard is what I believe to be a Cribbage board. Pretty fun card/ peg game that my grandpa taught me (which also helped me learn to count to 15 and variants of 15) back in the day. This house is so beautiful! Loved the grandad carpet and chairs! So comfy and warm! And the views are so peaceful. It is so frustrating though when vandals come in and mark it uo and ruin such a wondrous place. So unnecessary and disrespectful! Breaks my heart!
