Poor Charles, treated like an exhibit in a freak show! He might not have had family to claim him. But that doesn't mean his family didn't exist. He WAS someone's son, someone's grandson, and probably someone's brother, nephew, and/or uncle. He was SOMEONE. He was a HUMAN BEING. Black or white, rich or poor, man or woman or anything in between, it doesn't matter. NOBODY deserves to be disrespected like that! I'm so glad he was finally given a proper burial, and is resting peacefully. I hope his soul is untroubled and happy now, and enjoying Eternal Glory.

I remember that. I'm from Kentucky as well, though I was living in New Albany Indiana at the time of the storm. I will never forget, because I had just had my son. He was only a little over 3 months old at the time of the storm, and when our power went out, I remember I didn't care about myself or my food or my pipes or literally anything else; my only concern was how I was going to keep my tiny baby warm. Thankfully, the Angels were on our side. We lived downtown, so our power was restored in a matter of hours. My mother and sister both lost power for a week or more, and lost most of the food in their freezers. My sister stayed with my mother and her husband at the time, who had a generator, so at least they had some light, and a space heater. My little family, husband, son, and I, were very, very lucky. But that was a terrible week for my mom and sister, and many other people. I wonder if Mrs. Cherry died because she lost power and had no heat? Or maybe she had a medical emergency, and EMS couldn't get to her/she couldn't get to the hospital? Or maybe she just died of some sort of natural cause, and it was just coincidence that it was during the storm? Well, whatever the case, may she and Mayor Cherry rest peacefully.

@@tamarikimani5701 it was an ice storm. Large amounts of freezing rain fell, and covered everything with a layer of ice, I think it was like 1/4 inch of ice or something like that. That doesn't sound like much. But roads are terrible. More than that, ice is heavy, and tree branches are dry and bare in the winter. And when every branch and twig is coated with all that ice, the weight overloads them and causes them to break, blocking roads, damaging roofs and cars, and snapping power lines. The weight of the ice by itself can snap power lines, too. There were so many trees and lines down, roads were impassable, and some people were without electricity for 3 weeks or more. It was bad.

Paducah comes to life in the summer! Every Saturday evening the Downtown after dinner goes on plus festivals with the BarBQue on the River being the biggest and draws people from all over. Even some folks from other countries. Paducah is actually bigger than my hometown. I lived in Paducah for 10 years It has a lot more than my hometown. Before the uranium plant closed it had more than 50,000 people living there. If it were summer time Paducah would have a lot going on. The Bar-B-Que on the River is the biggest 2 day festival event Paducah hosts,then the art show exhibit from SIU students is really cool too.

Lamont, the birdsong was indeed beautiful. And, speaking as a native Kentuckian myself, though I live in Southern Indiana now (and though people from the Midwest know this even better than I), the fact that they were still singing so enthusiastically is a bit of comfort as well, in the context of that storm coming. But if there's a storm imminent, and the birds go silent, and it suddenly gets really, really quiet, like, eerily quiet, THAT'S when you need to be scared, lol! As an aside, if you're traveling up Interstate 64 to go to St. Louis, and get a hankering for a Big Mac, stop off at the Corydon exit and come see me. I'd love to meet one of my favorite KZbinrs in person (and maybe get a selfie?)! I'll even give you a discount, if I can, lol!

I'm so sorry. I will not pry, as it is not my business (but if it helps you to talk about it-because talking or writing about trauma can be therapeutic-I am always willing to listen; it's totally up to you though, and if you don't want to talk about it, or even respond to this comment at all, I completely understand and respect that). But as a mother myself, I couldn't even imagine. I wouldn't wish it on my very worst enemy. I am so, so sorry. There are no words I can say, really. But I'm sending prayers and love to your family. I just wanted you to know that.

These two babies are my husband's distant cousins...the mother was in jail at the time of the fire,they were being watched by a babysitter at the time and was busy in extra curricular activities (ahem) when the fire happened the babysitter comes running out the house naked,and she never even bothered trying to get those two babies out,she saved herself!!she went to jail for it

😮Paducah is my hometown! I've had the pleasure of seeing Speedy before he was laid to rest! Lamont, you should visit Woodlawn Memorial Gardens on the outskirts of Paducah. One of the girls, Nicole Hadley, that was killed in the Heath High School(the school I graduated from also) shooting back in December of 1997 is buried there. Right next to my stepdad. As far as Mrs. Cherry passing in the ice storm, we had a very bad, very crippling ice storm here in Paducah back in January of 2009. No power/electricity for miles and miles anywhere for several weeks in Western Kentucky, Southern Illinois, Southeast Missouri and parts of Tennessee!! It was horrible!!

I remember that ice storm, in 2009. I'm from Kentucky as well, though I was living in New Albany Indiana at the time of the storm. I will never forget, because I had just had my son. He was only a little over 3 months old at the time of the storm, and when our power went out, I remember I didn't care about myself or my food or my pipes or literally anything else; my only concern was how I was going to keep my tiny baby warm. Thankfully, the Angels were on our side. We lived downtown, so our power was restored in a matter of hours. My mother and sister both lost power for a week or more, and lost most of the food in their freezers. My sister stayed with my mother and her husband at the time, who had a generator, so at least they had some light, and a space heater. My little family, husband, son, and I, were very, very lucky. But that was a terrible week for my mom and sister, and many other people. I wonder if Mrs. Cherry died because she lost power and had no heat? Or maybe she had a medical emergency, and EMS couldn't get to her/she couldn't get to the hospital? Or maybe she just died of some sort of natural cause, and it was just coincidence that it was during the storm? Well, whatever the case, may she and Mayor Cherry rest peacefully.

I have a murder story for you if you are ever in NC and I actually knew the victim and it is brutal and hit our small towns near Charlotte very hard and the shock was unbelievable and the murderer had already tried to get two other women the same day he got my sister's best friend who we saw just 3 days before she was murdered. I will look for your email and send you more information. Love and hugs 🤗 and yes I will meet you and show you the murder scene, where she worked her gravesite and the high school even has a scholarship in her name. She was only 19.

Another interesting video la mont, how disrespectful , I know he was dead and knew nothing of his norioritorie in death but it's bloody weird people wanting their picture taken with Speedy to be dead around 65 years before been buried. That would definitely never happen over here in Europe particularly the UK. Regarding the 3 kids under 3 passing due to the fire as a parent how on earth does someone cope with losing 3 kids. Think that would be the only way I would even consider taking my own life , losing kids and so very very young . May they R.I.P, all the best from Leeds West Yorkshire England UK 🇬🇧

Another great episode, Lamont! Thank you for the stories mentioned. I had no idea about Charles. I am happy he finally received a decent burial after so many years of being disrespected while deceased. 16:44, she passed away during an Ice Storm which is one of the worst types of weather storms there is. Power usually goes out in the region and without that at her age, she could have froze with no electricity. Something like that could have happened.
