Killed by "Crazed Drunken Negro". (NOLA 2024 - Part 3)

[@stormchasingal]

Have missed you bunches!!!

[@kennithminnich]

Hello Ron, I love these old New Orleans cemeteries, They're so fascinating.

[@linneahite7493]

Two of my favorite things, New Orleans cemeteries and visiting them with Ron!

[@susanedrington4878]

Me too!!

[@limlianhui9462]

Mr. Pfeiffer’s story also resonates with me because my eldest aunt’s husband hit his head getting out of his car on the car door frame and was in great pain for a week. This was in 2020, just before lockdown, so late February. He spent 1 week tolerating the pain before trying to see a specialist. My mom found out the night before and when she saw his sister at Mass (Ash Wednesday morning) and told her-she was immediately alarmed and rallied everyone to send him to the hospital-scans revealed a massive brain bleed and he was operated on immediately. Spent almost 2 weeks in the ICU and then the first 6 weeks of lockdown being cared for at his sister’s house 5 mins away from the hospital. He would be dead if he had waited another day, he was already losing lucidity when they took him for the scans. My aunt (his wife) has dementia so she didn’t even understand something was wrong, plus he was downplaying the level of pain he was in.

Great to see you Ron. Your research and presentation is phenomenal.

[@melissakhalar1842]

I was reminded of a coworker who became a friend who I babysat for back in 1972 when you told the story about the gentleman who received a head wound while working. My friend slipped and fell hitting her head with great force at the restaurant we worked at. She was carrying a tray of food and when she went down she didn't get a chance to break her fall. She died at home two days later. Her children found her when they came home from school. She was only 32 years old. I'm sure you've heard about "Marge" the airplane that Major Ira Bong flew might have been found recently. Your story about the pilot made me think of Major Bong. Rest in Peace to those who you remembered in New Orleans. Rest in Peace Major Bong.❤

[@Chuthermucker]

Sure do miss your videos - seeing one here made my day. I enjoy this type of video. It surely does not have to be famous people all the time. Every day people are important and should be remembered too.

[@jeanhahn244]

Glad to see you

[@Queen_banana1983]

All your videos are fascinating 🎉🎉🎉

[@OnTheGoWithFlo-Kid22]

I love these personal stories of just regular people and the way you tell them just instantly brings them back to life. They deserve the recognition for how they lived and died just as much as the most famous people in the world do. The story about the man who hit his head and later died probably struck me the most because we still hear those kinds of stories today. It's a freak thing that any one of us could have happen to and nothing that has a cure except to be wise enough to get checked out if you hit your head that hard. I love these story walks as I call them. I would love to keep hearing them. Great job as always! RIP to all ❤💐

[@trishross8359]

Thanks Ron for taking us along, and thank you Deb for all that you do , I enjoy finding out the peoples stories

[@tracysmith3076]

Ron, the birds 🐦 were being very sassy 😂

[@dulcehajjar5826]

agree 😆 🐦

[@lisakoon4966]

Good seeing you Ron. Hope you're enjoying your vacation.

[@tedb2606]

Thanks for the video I am a former police officer from new orleans and later a neighboring parish.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

thanks Ted!!!!

[@elizabethbeavers6143]

Oh yes I love learning about the lives of those passed. This has been a wonderful series. Thank you.

[@Miltroon]

As a retired police officer, I greatly appreciate the stories remembering officers from the past. Thank you for ALL of your videos. You said it best yourself...It brings the past alive.

[@donc7354]

Love this format. We all realize that there is a lot more research this way vs. stories on famous people. That's what make FOTF special.

[@TracyW1965]

I like the combination of old newspaper stories with their old photographs and the cemetery visits..

[@limlianhui9462]

Great job, Ron! Lovely to see people remembered. A lot of these families may no longer exist or not have the money to come and repair the funerary monuments at the moment. My great grandmother has an air-conditioned columbarium-I have never met her but I am told I have exactly the same sense of humour and the same laugh, so I go and tell her how lucky she is that she can afford air-conditioning in sweltering hot Malaysia for eternity!

[@Lorriann63]

I've enjoyed all of them, Ron. Can't pick out a favorite story. I like the format, and I'm happy to hear the stories of everyday people as well as anyone, famous or not. Thank you to you and Deb for all your efforts. looking forward to any and all coming up.

[@debbiewilliams7386]

Great to see you Ron. Thank you Deb.

[@jhonamurphy1968]

I hope you enjoyed being here Ron. Remember NOLA Love's you Ron😊😊😊😊😊

[@davidcampbell7593]

I absolutely loved this format I hope you continue to do this

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

I have, I have two more episodes that might come out and fall, or after, even longer more in depth stories, and a few that are very fascinating surprises. Two parts, look for that in Fall, out of Phoenix

[@davidcampbell7593]

@@FacesoftheForgotten I can not wait for those episodes I love to learn about people's lives and how they lived that are not famous so thank you and Deb for all you do to bring us amazing videos

[@marciaborg77]

Loved hearing the stories Ron ❤❤❤

[@robertburns3014]

I enjoy the stories you tell at every cemetery you visit. These are stories about real people who lived, made their mark in the world, and passed away. Some stories are about famous people but most are about the man or woman who lived next door or down the street. Basically unknown to most, but usually they were known and loved by family and friends. I think every story is important! Thank you, Ron!

[@PamelaSanabria-h6v]

I missed your post Ron 😢 don’t forget us 😢 we can’t forget you Ron your amazing finds are always appreciated Ty Ron

[@marietomkinson5910]

Thank you, you are a natural storyteller. MARIE from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@MScott-y4g]

Ron I love all the had work that you do. The one you did with Scott on Merritt island about the 19 year old girl was really weird because my name is Merritt Scott I made a comment about the destruction of cemetery's it was about San Saba Tx. They turned their confederate soldiers cemetery into a football field.

[@ellennewth6305]

I love exploring the history of ordinary people who did extraordinary things ... especially those who died in the service of our country. Thanks for sharing their stories with us, Ron. You always do a fantastic job!!!

[@barbarascofield6683]

Love the stories of the common people and the heros they are. Keep it up. Thanks

[@ArdenSinn-oz3hq]

❤ Another brilliant review by Ron ❤Thanks Ron.

[@Joe-cg8te]

I like the episodes of just plain people as much as the famous i also like when you show picts when available thx for sharing your passion with us

[@joylewis8929]

We miss you ron! Glad you did this video.😊

[@davidroberts5577]

Indeed RIP Veterans thank you for your service.🇺🇲🗽🕊️

[@davidblackwell5219]

hi this is david and janette from tasmania you asked if people liked this or not but you are a creator you give people hope and joy with what you do and this makes you happy we have seen you sad happy and angry when people get hurt by those of humanity that dont care but we know that at least you do care for family and others you bring closure for those who cant find love ones and you find them in forgoten places and we love the ones you are doing thank you so much ❤🌹

[@michellec9368]

I really liked this format, sharing family history, ensuring thy are not the forgotten. Hope you consider doing more like this in the future.

[@rhondatemple-lf1bn]

Love this type of video. Very interesting to hear about common, everyday people! You do a fabulous job Ron(and Deb too)! 😊😊😊

[@brendacanter9768]

Thanks Deb❤ Thanks Ron❤Pferiffers story was sad not much they could do back then😢 Loved all the old pictures and the film❤ God Bless Them All❤ And you and Deb❤

[@thomasbaker829]

I love this format Ron. Please continue!

[@marylaporte8881]

I likey! I love the history behind "ordinary" people just living their lives from day to day. For me, they are the ones that really show us where we came from...who we are...and the impact that one simple, yet important and meaningful life can have even decades later. There's something somberly magical and beautiful in remembering those that came before us. Yes, famous and notorious people shaped history and their lives are no less important but I think for most of us we can relate to the beauty of the mundane and the simplicity of living a life that isn't overshadowed by stardom, infamy and ticker tape parades. I would love to see more of this content with perhaps a few famous individuals sprinkled in here and there.

[@DeadlyKnot]

Boy do I miss living close to New Orleans would go every other weekend d, no longer close to it. Great story Ron!

[@wooleygirl5240]

I enjoyed all three episodes and can't pick out one favorite story. I love hearing about people's lives, what their jobs were, etc. In my opinion, we are all famous in our own way. Hopefully we make a positive mark in our lives and our stories will be told in the future. Thanks Ron and Deb. Pam Miller

[@madeleineharve4152]

Love all your videos Ron. Thanks to Debs too

[@coryplace6238]

Love to hear about the 'regular' people. These are the folks who are more likely to be forgotten, so it is good to memorialize them here and to share their stories with us. Helps to connect the present with the past. Thank you, Ron!

[@limlianhui9462]

I think Mr. Pffeifer’s story (hitting his head and being seemingly ok only to die two days later) resonated the most with me. I had a choir master in church that passed a similar way. He had gone on a church camp (confirmation) with the youths and was playing the guitar and keyboard for them. During one of the games he fell backwards and hit his head on one of the wooden walls of the hall. He said he was ok but would sit out the rest of the games. He seemed like his usual, happy self when they finally went to bed. No complaints of a headache or pain. His younger roommate heard him snore unusually loudly in the middle of the night but didn’t check on him and went back to sleep. In the morning he was late and when they went to wake him he was already stiff and cold. It was very shocking and sad for everyone when the news spread. He was 37, married and left behind an 11 year old daughter.

[@catherineshetty2365]

This was great! I love hearing about the different peoples stories ❤

[@susanblauss1530]

Great to see you,Ron! You've been missed! I really enjoy this format, hearing about their stories, their lives,I hope you continue these.And thank you to Deb for all your help,much appreciated 😊

[@melanyblake1470]

I like knowing about people. They don't have to be famous. For me, my thoughts are that there are so many people in the world that we know nothing about and never heard of them. Yet, all lives are interesting by the nature of existence. It's like sitting at an airport, bus terminal, a mall, etc., and watching people go by and looking at them how their dressed, what they look like, how they carry themselves and guessing what their lives might be like. Thank you for these vids Ron, probably some don't regard them to have been interesting, but I enjoyed this.

[@catholiccrusader5328]

My family is from New Orleans though I live in Chicago. I love your stories, Ron. Keep it going.

[@wildpinto3291]

I enjoy this new approach. It lets us remember someone in everyday life. Now, let's back up. Was that a car grave behind you at the intro? If so, we need to know more about that one.

[@brendakrieger7000]

Always such fascinating stories🪦

[@sandratodd560]

Ron, I loved all 3 parts! It was beautifully done!! I would love to see more! Please!! ❤

[@zorabryce5493]

Another very interesting and well researched episode. It is so important that we remember and honour those who gave their lives in war, so that we might live in freedom. RIP. Stay safe and keep well, Ron. Zora in Australia.

[@CRuf-qw4yv]

Ron.....For some reason I find this cemetary more peaceful, maybe only somewhat less to Bruton Church Graveyard in Colonial Williamsburg, va.. We lived within a block of the colonial area for 17 years and I used to take early morning walks among the fog and mist to sit on the stone benches among the 250 year old graves, stones, slabs, and markers and meditate. The history there just radiated and I felt a deep connection of those long past. Many, not all, of the modern cemetaries are depressing. I would rather visit the old graveyards of the late 1600s to late 1700's like near Salem, Ma., than most of the modern ones today. Thanks fo your channel.

I appreciate hearing stories of these forgotten common folks - bringing their stories to the present - they live again! Please keep up the great work, Ron 🥰(And I can relate to losing a family member to a fall - my grandpa fell down his basement stairs and hit his head. He later died from the injury - sad times for the family....)

[@ChasingRainbows67]

Greetings from Oklahoma Ron ❤️I enjoy all of the cemeteries you take us to. And getting to hear stories about the lives that have come and gone before us is like history to me. I usually meditate on the stories and wonder just how different it really was back in the good ole days, as I call it. The generations behind me are so, so different!!!! Thank you for what you do Ron, and is it Deborah that helps you. She is so good at what she does and so helpful to you. She does an amazing job as well. I really liked the story of the woman that was the card's gambler. I can't think of her name right now. But I really did enjoy how much her life changed. How she ended up married and making a good name for her and her husband. Have a good week Ron.

[@MarinaGonzalez-j1i]

[@maribethwhiting7114]

I'd love more of these videos! I love any kind of history and sometimes the best stories are of normal everyday people like us. I'm like you when you talked at the end of the video trying to picture how things were in the past. I live in a home that my grandfather built in 1923. And I'm always wondering about the men who worked on it and what their lives were like. So I really enjoyed this 3 part series and would love to see more!

[@debbiemorgan6701]
