I love how she says that the lady of the house was well known and loved in the community. And, now, YOU are the lady of the house. It sounds like big shoes to fill, but I am sure you are going to do an amazing job. You're already honoring her memory and giving the home new life in such a perfect way. What a treasure to have these recordings.

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Aw thanks! I’m trying to honor the home in every way!

My friend Joe is 99-1/2, i feel so fortunate to know him. He just lost his wife of 76 years. She was 96. There is something to be said about that generation. Most of us will never see those ages. Thanks for sharing !

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Wow that’s amazing that they’ve both lived such long lives! Thanks for watching ♥️

This is one of the best and most important videos I have seen on KZbin. I was priveliged to know several people born in the era of 1890-1920 (and forward). Once people are gone, their stories are gone. I still treasure the day I sat down with a 103 year old man (his sister was my grandma's aunt by marriage). He was as sharp as a tack and knew me right away when I told him who my great-grandparents were. We had such fun that day.

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Wow! What an awesome comment! Thank you thank you!

[@1806StoneHouse]

It’s always amazing and super rare to get stories like this 💜

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yes! Thank you!

My mother is 92 years old; she and my dad grew up during the depression and were young adults during WWII. My sister and I were raised in that small, in-between time separating the 50s and late 60s, so we were caught in a kind of time warp. We have the stories, the "before-TV" memories, the clothing, the school houses, the ethics and values of those times. So this video is sending me into flashback after flashback. Thank you SO MUCH for going to the trouble to film this very valuable historical video!!

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Aw thank you very much! I am happy that my video can bring back some memories for you!

[@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse]

These interviews are priceless! 👍😃

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yeah I’m lucky to know these folks!

[@caseylfoster08]

It would be amazing to see her family's reaction to the farm now with all the work you and your family have done to it! Love hearing the stories of the old days!!

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

I have thought about doing that, but they’ve asked that their identity be kept private. I could possibly record audio of it eventually!

[@caseylfoster08]

Yes definitely!!

[@jaynebrown693]

Oh Laura, what a wonderful visit. She is so right about hearing the stories and listening. When those loved ones are gone so are the memories of yesteryear! How is wish I had listened MORE to my parents stories! My Mother had one brother...and my Dad had one brother! Yup small family. I only knew ONE Grandparent and that was my Mother’s Dad...he was grumpy and very angry! But now I understand why, when you outlive all your family at a young age ( like mid 60’s..... it can make you bitter but very lonely! ) How blessed that lady is to still have her Dad..God bless him 97 !

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yes it is amazing he’s 97 and still with it! ♥️

[@elizabethbrooks4849]

Love listening to the stories of old folks. Better than TV, phones etc. Whose porch it's nice.. clean

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yes exactly! It’s their porch, the families

[@karenhernke281]

Love the interviews! Wow 97 years old...I'm sure he has a world of memories to share. So neat to hear about them playing in your home and such. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Wisconsin Laura!❤

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yes absolutely! I can’t wait to share his interview!

[@mariacasella979]

WOW!this is sooo awesome..one doesn't get this kind of history on the daily about their homes,lives..Laura~your such a special,caring gal😘🙏🏻😘

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Thank you!!! I feel very lucky!

[@codyleeser392]

Cool. Growing up a military kid, my family was on the move a lot. I always am amazed at folks when they say " oh ,yea, we have known each other since kindergarden." or " my family has lived here for four generations." I have a hard time just remembering all the schools I went to.

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

I lived a few different places myself and can totally relate! Neither of my parents are from Virginia either.

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

I love hearing stories like this. I bet every time you learn more about the house & the community in general your emotional attachment to the house grows. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Yes absolutely!! Thanks buddy!

[@annikastonefieldt7941]

I think you did a really good job asking solid open questions and giving her good space to express her thoughts and feelings!

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Thank you ♥️♥️

[@margiebyerly9988]

You are making history Laura!

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

Thank you! I’m trying to!

[@margiebyerly9988]

So glad to see someone your age interested and actually doing preservation work. You have such a treasure in your house and outbuildings. We will never see these buildings again. Keep up the great work!

[@blindmango69]

Great video as always! You are an extremely good interviewer.

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

[@LisaNH934]

Ok..WOW! I've never left a message b4...and I just have to tell you its all your fault my house is filthy! Lol! I started binging your videos...then YOU sent me to 1806 stone house...then WabiSabi...Mallard 5...HOMEMADEhome....etc..(and haven't touched my vaccuum once in about a month!) 😀i love em all...but hearing original owners/families memories is SO RARE...I just had to say "thank you". Love all the hard work you & your dad have done..and I cant wait for your next video! Thnx again! & best of luck with all you do👍

[@LifeofLauraVideos]

You are so sweet! I’m so happy I’ve brought a wonderful distraction to your life. After all, cleaning my house doesn’t fill my soul haha

Nice interview. Love the sound of the kids playing in the old neighborhood.

I just told my husband there’s nothing to watch on KZbin then I got this notification.

[@patmurphy389]

Laura, we haven't heard from you on youtube in a long time. Is everything alright?
