    From the smile on Mamie’s face you can tell that she loved her son. He has a sweet and innocent face.
    RIP Mother and Son.🕊

    Thank you Evie, that was outstanding. I enjoy your work. From the young man's sacrifice and his courageous mother we later celebrated the leadership of an African-American President. You taught us a lot today. A moment to appreciate life, and not let death take away from the wisdom shared.

      Rod Hoover Thank you so much for your comment! I learned so much by making this video. Even after the grave the lives of these individuals have shaped our society and views that we have in today’s day. Thank you for watching! 🙂

    That's disgusting that an innocent 14 male had to be murdered but I believe that those two who murdered him will be dealt with by God rip mr,tillis

      Evie Vargas mine was moving as well. I did some research on the notable people buried there and most of them had great productive lives. The most tragic of course was Emmett Till.

    The video was good, but there were a slew of notables you didn't mention. Maybe you should do a Part 2, Part 3 video of Burr Oak.
