Headstones symbolism is not always what you think it is!
Просмотров 1642 месяца назад
Symbols have been around for a millennia! Just because it is offensive now doesn’t mean that it always was! You can’t always look at history through the lens of the present. This is a great example of that!
Spread the word about this non profit!

Sometimes fate brings two people together at just the right time. I hope this helps them out in a huge way!

When a stone is badly damaged,why can’t it be replicated and replaced?
It could be… but it would not be wise to replace the Mona Lisa if it got damaged… you can’t replace original artwork and still value it the same
Went there today.... just started looking up the names... thanks for the research!
Have fun!
I love the patience you have with your work. Keep up the great work.
Your not weird I am doing it also
I have the same reaction from some people/relatives as well. Most people are grateful. I appreciate the work you do! Thank you.
I love that you do this. When we would go to the cemetery to visit or clean up old family graves on Memorial Day, we’d always look around at the other graves and see whose needed some extra upkeep, whether it was clearing overgrowth, washing down the headstone or watering whatever flowers were there. I always enjoyed it and it’s something I want to instill with my children.
I was just asked that this week after I uncovered 3 markers from under grass at a cemetery where the records were destroyed ina 1909 fire, and never officially recreated. The dates on the markers are 1860, 1866, & 1861/1871/1872 (same stone). The 1860 marker is a cast iron cross in beautiful condition.
Wow! Awesome!
Seems satisfying and has meaning. Even as maintaining records of history too
I think it‘s nice :)
This is really lovely!
When I tell people I clean headstones I either get a strange look or they say that’s such a nice thing to do. It is very relaxing and so rewarding, wish I could do it all day everyday😊
Me too
What a stupid mistake
Infuse soft biological soap
What is soft biological soap?
Past Preservation, do you ask permission to do that type of work? Your work is very nice! I want to use it as a model to do the same work here in Lucas County, OH. #rvgminc
Yes. This particular one I had permission to clean and raise anything in the entire veteran section
@@Headstoneman Thank you! excellent!
Wonderful work on putting up tombstones for veterans that otherwise might have none- there are so many cases where this is the case. Thank you for what you are doing-up there I think those veterans are smiling too!
Why is the advertisement so long??
No idea… I don’t pick how long they are
I feel the exact same way when I tell people never to use bleach on a headstone.
D2 is an amazing product for sure
What did you use to clean them with?
D/2 biological solution
Love the hat, Justin ❤ 1:20 RUclips being RUclips, Desubcribed me from your channel..just sub ed again..
Awesome! Thank you!
I would sell my soul just to get my wife's teeth fixed from our sons birth messing them up.........
??😮
The same thing I have been doing. Clean headstones
I wish you would have been able to buy some epoxy and epoxy his grave marker down so it doesn't end up getting broken
Not a great idea… that just makes it more likely that it will get damaged if it does get hit
Whats the email brother would love a hat
PastPreservation1@gmail.com
Love to have one
Perfect!
Nice hat Cuz I like it
Me too!
Sweet!
Love it👍💕
Thank you! 😊
Hey @Past Preservation, Awesome video! Very nice hat!
Lol...FYI..I'm a psychic/medium..as u work I see spirits meandering near you..as if they are inspecting the job.❤
Could be
@@HeadstonemanHave you ever sensed "something" around you as you work on the stones? Just curious. I Have never seen, heard or felt any physical contact, just sensed a presence around me on several occasions while cleaning my ancestors stones.
@@parnold-mora8924 from time to time I feel like I’m being watched… but I can never tell why
Love the hat man!!
Democrat voting hat !! LOL ! Love Ya Bro, be safe.
People would kill to get one of those hats!
Lol. Love it.
I absolutely love it.
still my favorite. would like to see more like these! and also see updates, and time frames in about how long it takes stones to typically come back "white" or most staining come off. Im a terminal cancer patient. Watching everyone's techniques different for sure and some not so up to par. I like what you do.
why do some restorers put spaced out dots of epoxy on some stones and others make a full line of epoxy across the break like you did in this clip? Is it personal preference or situational? Thank you
I think it’s preference… I would never do small dots
@@Headstoneman i appreciate it thank you
do you have to fill in the crack with marble dust and epoxy/ mortar or is it mainly an aesthetics thing?
You don’t really have to… it’s mostly aesthetic but it does help a bit structurally and it helps protect the joint from freeze/ thaw damage.
@@Headstoneman thank you
i like that each cemetery has its own energy. I went to mount zion church cemetery in Missouri last month where a civil war battle happened. Wasnt tranquil but it was cool picturing hundreds of soldiers sitting by the tombstones before shots rang out.
Thank you very much❤
You're welcome 😊
Absolutely amazing! You are an artist.
Thank you so much 😀
You did a awesome job. Thank you.
Thank you
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Thank you for what u are doing! I never get to go to my father's grave. I don't even know where it is! 😢 U may uncover him 1 day! He was in the Vietnam War changed him completely!
Do you know what city he is in?
Doing some genealogy in Vermont we found a family cemetery from the early 1800’s in the middle of a cow pasture, I could have stayed all day, very tranquil and a great view of the Green mountains.
Very nice job and it looks great 👍🇺🇸
Thanks 👍
