    Thanks for the comment and watching the video. It was a great honor for me to make almost 40 videos with Ralph Robertson that I filmed over a two year period. Since his passing in December they have been a surge in his video views here on RUclips. The series was first posted a few years back on Facebook but at that time the RUclips Channel only had about 2k subscribers. Now that I’m at over 100k subs “The Greasy Hollow Memories” videos have found a whole new audience.. Come along with me to Greasy Hollow, Tennessee and meet a real Appalachian storyteller that became a living legend.

      So sorry to hear this. i so enjoyed his dry humor bit about the history of his store and all of his collectibles & his stories. Our Greatest generation is almost completely gone. thank you, sir, for giving a voice to our greatest generation. You are a gentleman & thanks again for making a difference as while we are on this earth we have to make a difference in our lives!

    The greatest generation is slowly fading. The saddest part is that one day their stories will be gone forever.

      ​@@Tampafan33 it has been labeled that, the greatest generation. When people say that they are usually referring to the fact that it's been called that, like we talked about Gen x, Millennials and so forth 😊
      The greatest Generation still living in modern times that we all got to know?

    It’s so sad when elderly people are taken out of their home and environment, they go downhill so fast. It’s like they leave their heart there and desire to just go home. It’s necessary to get them help when they need it but they’re rooted to the land. God bless his family and blessings to you John. You brought a lot of joy and respect to Ralph’s last few years.

    I am so sorry for your loss. He seemed like such an incredible dude and so sharp for his age. The way he lit up when he saw the general store again and just the way he lived his life. So inspirational and unfortunately we are losing a generation of people who Understand what the United States is supposed to be and what helping and loving thy neighbor is all about. Something that’s been lost in the modern generations. Luckily there’s people our age who had grandparents and parents who came from those times and we still have it in us.
    We have to teach it to our kids and grandkids, before it’s too late, and it’s all lost. God bless you and the rest of the family in this tough time. Much love from Maryland.

    The very first video I watched on this channel was the one where he opened the store for the first time in many years. I've been hooked since. God bless you Ralph and rest in peace.

    Pleas convey my deepest sympathy to Ralph's daughter's and thank them for sharing their father with all of the world. He was a true treasure and one of the last of the greatest generations ever. I'm so thankful you documented his life and stories. I never had the pleasure of meeting him personally yet thru the videos you made and shared with us I felt as if I knew him. He was a true southern gentleman who remained true to his upbringing and his way of life. I loved how he spoke the truth no matter what anyone thought. His girls are a testament to him and his beautiful wife. They both live on in their daughters and grandchildren and to the many friends they left behind. I think one of his girls opening and running his store would be such an amazing tribute to him and a life well lived. God bless and keep all his family and friends. Thank you John for introducing this amazing man to the world.

    As the grandson of two hero grandfathers about Ralph's age, I sure am so glad you got to meet and get to know him and share it with us. These were my favorite videos that you've done. As a dual sport motorcycle rider in upstate SC, we often ride up around this area and I think I may have been by or super close to this store here. We've met some fantastic folks from up in that area on random encounters. Man, this is just the best generation in my opinion. I greatly miss my grandparents and I wouldn't be here today without them! May Ralph Robertson rest in piece! Thanks again man!
