All of the urns will be placed in the casket with me and I have a beautiful spot, in a very beautiful place indoors. We all will be together forever.

Everytime a passed persons name is mentioned or observed on the stones brings those individuals back to life for a few moments. Once the names are forgotten the people go back to obscurity. So it's a wonderful thing that you do Lamont. I wonder if our names will be mentioned a hundred years from now.

I did see the murder of LaQuan... It was awful!!. I had never seen it b4 and surprisingly, I was unaware of the murder until now. I live in another state and at that time, I was working on a heavy project and wasn't watching the news much. Thanks for bring his story forward and visiting his grave.

[@mrs.puppysaver1019]

So sad how these young people are passing. That song “what the world needs now, is love”. I agree that some of these kids, didn’t have a chance from the get go. I’m a white woman but was in a similar situation. I ended up pregnant at 16, my mom kicked me out. Some teachers reached out to me and got me on the straight line. They need to have something in the area, where younger kids can go just to talk. No need to have name or personal information. Sometimes anonymity makes a huge difference

Another great video Lamont. The rest of the country hears about the problem of gun violence in Chicago, but they rarely get to see a name or a face to go with the tragic story. And sadly the biased media in my perception still doesn’t think that black on black violence is that big of a deal. Well, no matter what color you are, all life matters and is precious.

[@victoryforever1915]

About 10 years ago, my friend and I got the Star Ledger newspaper here in NJ. Just about every day, the Star Ledger published an article about Newark gang-related fatal shootings taking place from the early evening throughout the night. On occasion, little kids would get caught in the cross-fires while walking to the store or playground. My friend's husband commented, "If you live in Newark, just don't go outside after six pm." Unfortunately, the subject in this video mimics Newark's tragedy. I don't know if the shootings continue in Newark, but I have the feeling that they do.
