This woman passed at home when she was 100 years old. Not in a care facility or a hospital - still at home taking care of herself. That speaks a lot of her gumption and spirit. Rest in peace, dear lady.
Yes what a warrior xnanapollyx Scotland x 💗
I didn’t even think of that. Wow. AND she clearly took very good care of her house, most of it was like she had just gotten done cleaning, went to bed and didn’t wake up. How has her family not done anything?
did want to meet them
Absolutely!❤
@@scruffy281 please you can talk on phone send your number me
It amazes me how much respect you show these old homes. Some people would consider the things left behind to be nothing but junk, but you actually seem to care about what you find. Some people would be discussed if they didn't find room after room of antiques, but the truth of the matter is most folks live simple lives and can't afford priceless works of art. Thank you for showing the same respect for a simple lived in home as you would a king's castle. 😊
I love that too.
Hello Cindy how's the weather over there
Yes I do agree. With u.
Oh my goodness… Thank you for taking us on this tour. Makes my heart sad that of all the portraits of children, grandchildren, etc. someone would’ve gone back to clean up the mess and put grandma things away properly. What kind of family abandons someone’s life like that? A bit odd
I thought the same as you Stacey. A lifetime of memories just left in their home to ruin over time. Very sad to me that no family members wanted a keepsake
It’s awful! I get so sad I have a 92yo Mama I’d NEVER do that!!
But only the jewerly it's not there mmm weird 🙄🙄
I can understand why family members do not pack up their parents things after they pass. When my mom passed in 2019 I packed up 40 plus years of her belongings plus my own. It was very overwhelming. I was caring for her the last few years. Thank God my oldest was able to to help pack and stay with my mom while I worked.
@@traciegauntt1614 I’m currently living that situation, but I don’t have kids. Mine passed away in 2020 ❤❤❤
As someone who just lost my 97 year old Dad last year and went through cleaning out his house of 50 years, I can not believe no one who cared about them came and cleared out the meaningful pictures and mementos.
Maybe in probate and fighting .
That is what I was thinking… made me feel sad all her little treasures and especially the pictures and albums …
Someone is dusting & vacuuming the place
I thought the same thing 😞
Not without power??
Great to see you back❣️
So sad to see no one came to claim any of her belongings..😢
Unreal. I couldn’t abandon my parents home. You have to know the contents were precious to the departed. How could children abandon this? Heartless
Oh I guarantee they got the jewelry, important paperwork and valuables. Most of what is left is flea market and goodwill grade. They probably rent the tillable property to the nearest farmer. The thought of emptying the house to rent or sell is overwhelming to some people, and the children could be in their late 80's.
What a wonderful little place. I can imagine there was a lot of love and laughter there. Thank you for the tour. I hope you're doing better.
Why would people just leave the house and all the family memories?? A treasure.
It's possible at 100 yrs of age that she out lived her child/children. Her offspring might possibly be 70-80 themselves. People that age don't have the ability to go through all that stuff. They might be in nursing homes. They might have dementia etc. Grandkids might be in their 60's with start of dementia. Might not have even been grandkids etc. Family fallouts. Could be a million reasons. But it is always so sad. Now the house and stuff in it is just ruined😢.

When my grandparents passed at 102 & 98 they passed within 8 days of each other. They had one daughter, my mom. My dad was an only child too. Both passed before my grandparents. We have 5 kids in our family. No one wanted antiques or other belongings. It wasn’t their style. So I moved into their home and am very happy and I know they would be too. I love and respect all they left. I have very fond memories of my life in this house. My grandpa would tell us stories about how they built their “Sears” house and how lean things were during the Depression. The house will be 100 in 5 years! ❤
@@priscillarobinson7740 I'm glad that it all worked out for you. It was a perfect plan 💖
everything falls to ruin, eventually.
everything's temporary.
in another 100 years or less nobody will remember this person ever lived.
Much less you and I. Remember that.
Thank you for taking us along with you. I like how positive and respectful you are of these peoples homes. I often wonder where is the family, so sad 😥
Me too!
Hello Kathleen how's the weather over there
I loved this one. I’m a caregiver and it looks just like the homes I go to. The bedroom where she probably died was sad
Hello Angeli how's the weather over there today
If the woman was 100 years old in 2014, she would have been born in 1914. The wedding pictures were probably of one of the couple’s children based on the clothing style. The rugs were likely commercial based on their sizes. What you referred to as a quilt, was a crocheted afghan. I love the respect you show to these old “time capsules “ and the fact that you don’t reveal the locations of your explorations.
I was hoping that someone else would have noticed that the wedding picture couldn't have been the older couples wedding photo, it was in color and the clothes, especially ( the man's military clothes) were from a different Era ( possibly the 60s).
Thank you for the utmost respect you pay when filming these. I also love the scriptures! May God continue to bless and keep you always ❤
This house is so amazing. It's so cool that she was home and went in her sleep.100 years old by herself and to be able to stay in the home she loved. It's a shame her family has left the mementos pictures and everything behind.
This one made me sad. Can you imagine a Christmas tree in the room with the French doors..I so wish someone would come in and get all of the memorabilia and family items. Thank you for sharing.
No doubt, the vulture relatives swooped in and scooped up any jewelry of value, money and any good antiques (if there actually were any). Grandchildren probably had no sentimental attachments to anything, like I did to just about everything in my grandmother's house. Slimy neighbors climbed through the window and stole the diamond rings but we couldn't prove it. By the time we left the hospital and drove out to the house, the window was open and everything was picked through.
Hi, my name is Bonnie and I'm 80 years young. I'm Salt Lake City Utah. This half is absolutely beautiful. Full of treasures and memories. When you started at the basement I took my breath away, I feel that would you go Is into a home like this you make it live again am You bring members back to the walls Is what a way to honor a family who wrote each other. Thank you so much For sharing bonnie❤
Still mind blowing that these with these finds the family doesn’t step up and clean out house. Weird. Hope things turn around for you. We are all pulling for you. 👍🏻
Thank you for the tour. What a time capsule indeed! Sad that her family just left almost everything behind except for jewelry. I hope someone is able to restore this beautiful home before it becomes a teardown.
It's like a museum and was so loved and would of been so cosy. Great find but so sad the family have just left it 💗💗💗
It really is!
Hello Shelley how's the weather over there
Truly incredible! Those rugs and blankets are so beautiful! Thank you for being so respectful ❤️
I would love to have this house, as well as what was left in it that is salvageable. I love old photos of people I don't know. I call myself a keeper of memories. I have several of them and I love them as much as my own. Someone kept that moment for a reason, so I try to keep it for them as well. That would be an amazing house to reconstruct and enjoy. Thank you for your amazing respect and for bringing us a great video, as always. Be blessed, be happy, and be safe. 🥰
By the way, I LOVE that you include a Bible verse at the beginning of each video!! That's one of the reasons I started watching you. I think you're truly a blessing for me, for several reasons. Thank you!
I hate when a home rots away. Homes like this deserve a family with love and laughter. It just looks overwhelmingly sad and haunted of what was and memories.
I am so thankful u give us a history/story of these places! This is what makes you great and separates your channel from others!!!
a mixture of many different decades of styles - 50s pink bathroom is fabulous - thanks for posting this
I'm always surprised by family not taking personal items like photos. Sad it's just sitting there. Thank you for sharing.
I can not imagine the family not taking over this beautiful home, assuming she had family. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Its really so sad to see these homes....She certainly lived a long life..Thank you for sharing!
Amazing how beautifully kept for someone a hundred years old. Precious 💕❤️
What a amazing time capsule.Wow,the ladie was hundred years old when she passed away,may she rest in peace together with her husband🙏I wonder why his children left all these things left behind.Thanks for another awesome video.Greetings from Germany🙂
Awesome!! I love this home, it's now one of my faves!!! Looks like it once was a very cozy loving home...so sad...❤️❤️
nice looking lady
The kitty wallpaper and braided rugs pink tiled bathroom 1970s style furniture really is frozen in time. Reminds me of my parents house. I can understand why it isn't touched. If it were my parent's home I'd not want to change it. I cried my eyes out for days cleaning out my momma's apartment.
Great video. FYI those blankets aren't quilts they are Afghans. Quilts are material down together. Afghans are made from yarn. This home reminds me of my grandma home. Thanks for being so respectful
Thanks for another video 👍👏👏
Each abandoned house you show us has a sad story, and reminds us how short and fast our lives are. Our life is nothing but a second in time, a breath of dust in the wind, as the song says "nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky"
Your soul lasts forever.
Excellent. Thanks for sharing. You could tell they were in love and had a wonderful life. She lived alone after his death! The house is beautiful and one of the best. Stay safe
You are so right!! This place you found is AMAZING! It makes my heart happy to see that there is no vandalism! I like to think that you Urban explorers are part of that movement to capture these spaces withOUT touching/tossing/vandalizing the place! You can just picture a sweet little old lady puttering around her house checking on her family. Even the 2 separate beds speaks volumes of the time in which she was raised. Most married couples had separate bed....sometimes even bedrooms! It's just how it was. Ohhhh...the furniture too! So beautifully kept! I think this is, by far, one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing it! ❤❤
I am so happy she was able to live her life and die at the home sh shared with her husband. It makes me sad that her family is not taking care of the house and her treasures. I hope someone saves the house. If they don't want it they should donate it to a charity.
Hello Sheri how's the weather over there
You are very respectful, thanks so much for your sharing and kindness of the people who inhabited the beautiful home
Happy to see you back we are with you ❤️
take care of yourself
I really love this videos, and your content. It breaks my heart a little when I see this homes frozen in time, it makes me wonder why the family or friends left it all like that, never put away all the memories and belongings... Maybe they didn't care or maybe it was too hard to say goodbye, and it is a way to keep them close, like they never left, I don't know.... It is really sad though
Yes it is often hard as our parents pass to move or remove their belongings it often just takes time. My father passed 8 years ago and my 86 yr old mother has never moved anything in his room. Has all been left and even the clothes he last wore his car only driven to his funeral by my son still sitting in his garage.My parents were married 58 yrs and my father served his entire life for Christ a true gentleman 🕊️
@@karengillum9850 I am really sorry for your loss... It's really hard hope you all can find stenght and peace 💝
The house is probably a lot older and was actually kept up really well till she passed or sometime during her last years. The woodwork and doors leading to the living room are an indication of an older rural home. Thank you so much for the respect you give when exploring. It is always so sad when it seems everything is left behind like that. I always wonder what people are thinking when they just leave what seems like everything creating a time capsule for urbex😢.
Hello Terri how's the weather over there
I don't understand why the family didn't do something with the house. Hopefully someone will take this on and bring it back to it's formal glory.
Maybe they dont know she died. Or the grown children may all be dead too.
How sad. All the photographs, the homemade crocheted throw blankets, etc just left behind. What a beautiful property too
It's the cat puzzle poster and cat wallpaper in the kitchen for me 🤣 I woulda gotten along well with this woman!!
Beauty. Fantastic time capsule. 100yrs old, that is awesome.
Love your calm voice and videos. So sad that this beautiful home is left to decay. ❤️❤️🙏❤️❤️
The house,main floor - had me 😮 there seems to be no dust or webs on the furnitures and shelves. Looks like even after she's gone she still keeping it dust and web free. But that is truly beautiful. I love how the basement had the old look. Thanks for sharing.
For a house being abandoned over 8 years it was amazing that the furniture didnt have more dust on it or at least from what i could tell. I live in my house and it looks dustier than that one!! Also surprised there is not more structural damage to the ceilings from no one living there for that long. Also curious why kitchen cabinets are open, most people dont do that. It was a great video and i enjoyed seeing it. You do a great job.
Hello how's the weather over there today
The master bedroom and how they were still together. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
I get a kick when I see an explorer touring a house and I see things in the house that are replicas of things that I currently have in mine.
It's a shame nobody came back for the photos so sad thanks for sharing
Just wondering where is the dust and cobwebs? Someone either dusted stuff and got rid of cob webs or it was vacuum sealed. Never the less beautiful little house. Blessings to the the 100 year old lady and her husband. Thank you for shoeing us around. Blessings to you both and always be safe.
I noticed that too...no dust. Unusual.
I also noticed in the master bedroom the bed was made up. I thought she died in her sleep. Who made up the bed? Or did I misunderstand?
@@dcb4400 I think she died in the smaller bedroom with the blood on the duvet.
@@justacutepieceofshit Oh thank you. That makes perfect sense. I missed that during the tour
No, she did not knit those braided store-bought rugs. Those kind of rugs used to be real popular. I like em because they give me a nostalgic homey feelin.
nice to see your dog 🐕🐕
@@scottwillas 😊
@@wondergranny2299 sorry are you a lady
Really cool house. Due to the lack of dust and electricity someone maintains basic oversight of the property even if it's not occupied. Definitely a time capsule! 😊
Which means they are definitely breaking the law by breaking in. Rather rude also.
Wow, a centenarian - only about 4% of people live that long or longer! A real time capsule here - appears untouched! It's a shame that their children didn't come back for their valuables but maybe the place tied up in probate. It's like a museum in there! That house needs properly secured to keep out vandals and thieves. It would be a disaster if this place got destroyed. They loved cats, that's for sure! I wonder if they had some... The death bed was creepy though. Makes you wonder how long she laid there after passing. Hope you can check up on this place in a year or so. Great explore - thanks BB!
You capture the life memories of better times past I can feel the winter cold and hot days of summers throughout the years. Perhaps birthday celebrations & Holidays to talk about over coffee spooky yet evidence of family life at a happier time
@15:42 Looks like a mahogany Hepplewhite Secretary/bookcase.. valuable & pristine condition.
I was going to tell him that the “cabinet full of books” is called a Secretary. My grandmother had one. I still have it.
The television is a console tv. We had one 30 years ago.
I am sure I had that same wallpaper in the first house years and years ago my husband and I had. I love how you go slow so that we can see them and that you do not use no awful language as others do. So pretty a little bit of fixing up and we could move right it.. Can't you just hear it, the fire crackling and a hot cup of tea or coffee on the table next to the sofa where you are resting. I would keep that pink tile and work around that. wow such beautiful home. thank you for being so respectful to the houses you tour. Lean on God
Beautiful house! What I don't understand is how little dust and cobwebs there are. It's too bad her family hasn't done anything with the house and her belongings. I hate to see just a cool house just waste away. Thank you for the video.
Beautiful home and loved the braided rugs very popular in the 70's and the crocheted blankets and pillows very beautiful, very much a time capsule.
The heating bills with the old boiler you seen in the basement would’ve been astronomical even back in the day. So beautiful
If my Dad passed away tomorrow &if I was an only child , his house & contents would have to wait. I’m states away with little means . Now that I’m older, it’s easy to understand how some houses are just “ left”. Lack of money to travel &/or hire help, not being able to afford to take time off of work, is just part of the reasons places are left “ as is” . It’s sad.
Absolutely beautiful home. So sad. So glad you're feeling way better. Thanks again for sharing. 🙏🙏🫶🫶✝️✝️
thank you for showing this lovely house. what a wonderful display of some very nice antiques. it's so sad that there wasn't family available to carry these things forward
Hi Big Bankz, I hope this comment finds you well, it saddens me that all her stuff that she held dear for her whole life, is just left to mother nature. It appears she had a good size family, so why didn't the children or her grandchildren, at least take the family photos and donate the furnishings and clothes to charity. Unless it's being help up in the courts, you would think they would sell the house. Anyway, another great find and video. Thanks for sharing. Love from N.Y.
Cool house Bigbank! Thanks you very much for sharing this with us! Glad you are back this week! God Bless You your family! 🙏😊
I hope me and my husband of 16 years will be like this wonderful love story. We're both in our early 40's now. He's my best friend and companion. We can only hope to be as blessed in love like this couple was. You look around the house and you can see and feel the love. ❤
I think you thoroughly enjoy the nick knacks😊 So do I! I feel so sad that no one from the family came back to take any of the family's memories with them. Great job as always Big Bankz! Thanks!
Good Morning BigBankz 🙋🏽. I hope you and your wife are having a wonderful start to your day ‼️. Be careful and stay safe out there‼️❤❤
Its heart breaking seeing no family have been there taking Sentimental things. I have so many things that my parents had & my grandparents, it brings happy memeries for me. I hope no one goes in that house and damage anything. 👍🙏🌹
I pray that your tour does not in any way bring vandals to disrespect this beautiful old home. It's truly bittersweet.
Looks like stuff I grew up with from the 60s and 70s. Always get a kick at what you call things .Those beautiful rugs are called braided rugs and they are made in a factory. The throw other back of the couch looked to be knitted and the pillow on the chair was crocheted. There is a difference but many people can't tell. When you have a desk " cabinet" like the one you said you liked and had the pi tures on next to the stairs. 2 different ones. The front lifts down, these are called secretaries.
One other point. The place was awlfuky clean for sitting empty for so many years. Some body's been dusting. No dust anywhere, just a couple of cobwebs above the doorway where cats were.
Amazing this is a true time capsule. It gives me the vibe of my Grandmothers house in PA, with the stonewalls in the basement.
Just a note regarding the wedding pictures on the fireplace mantle. The picture could not have been the couple who lived and died in the house. You said she was 100 when she died in 2014. That means she was born in about 1914. The couple in the wedding pictures must have been grandchildren or even great grandchildren. From the look of the couple and what they are wearing, I'd say the wedding was in the 1960's or '70's. From all the other family pictures we saw in the bedroom, they must have had quite a few grandchildren or great-grandchildren. It's a shame that no one cared enough to rescue the personal items. Unless the woman of the house insisted on staying there by herself, it's also amazing someone in the family left her by herself. Maybe someone did stay but it doesn't look it. Thanks for sharing this. It was a beautiful home. You do know the room in the cellar was just an early version of what we now call "family room".
I took care of an old man in my home for 22 years. He passed at 92, on January 2nd 2023. Taking down his room & his stuff is hard, because I feel like I’m dismissing his life. Things are just things, but I knew what his things meant to him. My point it I appreciate how you extend respect for the fact that her things meant something to her.
This made me kinda sad. Beautiful home. I'm glad she and her husband lived a long happy life there ❤️
Great explore. My Mom died at 96 last summer and a bunch of the older things remind me of her things. Wonder where the family is.
One of the best houses I’ve been to. I hope this one keeps quiet 🤫
What a beautiful home! I think you mentioned that the heirs were also deceased earlier in the video. You did a wonderful & respectful job explaining the home (I'd love to purchase 1 or 2 of those beautiful braided rugs) !
This was definitely one of the coolest houses you have explored! I just love how each room could literally depicted the beautiful life they lived. Only thoughts are.. why haven't their loved ones come to take some of those memorable items!
That was amazing. Such a beautiful abandon house displayed in the way in time. I love all the knickknacks all the antiques. She was really a amazing lady. Some of them lamps are so old but yet they don’t look that owed beautiful house. Hopefully somebody will take care of this before it decays away. Anyway, thank you for sharing the video. I enjoyed it. God bless.
That stove amd pink bathroom tile was awesome and I loved seeing her decor...so homey. I bet she was a wonderful lady!
Loving your channel!!!only bad thing about it is that I'm just finding it!!!!! But, this has been a wonderful snow day for me!!!! Lol your respect and back story makes your videos absolutely perfect!!!
Wow a winter wonderland, the house reminds me of the McAllister house from Home Alone.
That's a shame noone is doing anything with that house. It could be restored. And be made back to a beautiful home
Those family photos!!! Someone has got to rescue those! But, ya never know why no one wants anything to do with a family members belongings...
home is beautiful and sad at the same time. sad that no family care enough to take care of things. glad at least no vandales or graffiti. thank you for sharing
Absolutely fantastic explore!! Great upload and thank you for another adventure!!
Bless her heart, she was a clean person, didn't hoard , she did great for a 100 years old. ❤
I found your channel today and I love the way you film and how you speak. It’s very soft and doesn't take away from the stories of the places you visit. Plz, don’t change what you’re doing. A lot of these urbex channels are very fast-moving and in your face and not enjoyable. Your content is truly amazing
Total 90s nostalgia ! Brings me beautiful memories as a kid !
This house is beautiful, I am amazed that dust is hardly seen. Again it makes me sad that everything is still there. Why do children, grandchildren or anyone get involved in cleaning up. It just makes me sad. Great job on this one.
She may have outlived many of them.
@@beckysmith2346 Perhaps, but seeing that many children beds I seriously doubt it. Either way, it's so sad.
Thank you for this amazing video, so sad to see this beautiful home fade away 😢
The rugs look to be hand braided wool rugs, beautiful!
What a great house! I loved all the crochet afghans and the beautiful rugs! It is too bad children or grandchildren have not claimed the house and at least cleaned it up and sold it. Sad to see families not taking an interest in their own heritage.
That was a beautiful home, sad ending, thank you for the video both of you😊
Thank you for another interesting and respectful video. Good to see you back. Hope you're doing better. 👍
Whoever this lady was I love her because she loved cats too. In fact I have the same kitty figurine as the one on the tv. It's sad though, that no family member even tried to clear out the home of wonderful memories, pictures, etc. Not even tried to have an Estate Sale? I guess us random people will admire her treasures and memorabilia from afar. 💕
The rugs are vintage braided rugs....grandmas love these and knick knacks!! :) My favorite one you've done yet!! Love it!
I am so glad to see a new explore from you! Have missed the Saturday premiers the last two weeks, and, frankly, was worried. Good one here! Hope you are all well!
Very sad that the lady passed away in her home I expect all alone sometimes children find it very difficult to return to the old home all I know I couldn't do it to my parents I looked after them until they passed away and sorted the home out great video guys I hope your feeling a little better as you haven't been very well 🙏 thanks for sharing this with me and many more people.
It appears she had a large family. It amazes me the house and all of its contents just left behind. So sad
I cried during the entirety of the video. I can’t understand why there is so much stuff still left in the house. My father died in 2021. We went through the house and took everything that had meaning to us into our own homes. My brother and I shared everything that we wanted and also opened the home to the grandchildren to get what they wanted. There’s so much still left in that house. It makes my heart hurt. You could almost see someone walking into a room and sitting down and sharing their memories. It is just heartbreaking. Thank you for honoring their memories.
