It’s incredible that you do this and, as a mom who lost a child, this means a lot to me. As an aside, it still surprises me that not many people remember how very dangerous whooping cough can be, I’m in my 30’s and very nearly died from it as an infant. I was confined to the infectious disease ward of the children’s hospital, this wasn’t all that long ago!

Thank you! I had whooping cough and the croup when I was 5. I was lucky to survive being hooked up to all sorts a ventilators. I completely understand what you went through. We are the lucky ones.

When I had it it was 1957 and they didn't put children in hospital for it in those days. I had to stay at home and my mother looked after me the best she could. 😕

I heard a mention of it within the last few years, but that was about it. The last i'd heard any regular mention of it-no disrespect intended-was after the debut of the first-ever release of STAR WARS, when a commercial featuring C-3Po and R2-D2 aired for awareness. Surely it's out there, and I pray for increased awareness, treatment And Survival rates.

I am 49 and I had whopping cough and double Pneumonia when I was 4, and I was vaccinated. (I guess I was already infected when I was vaccinated) I remember the cough so clearly, gasping for air. I was hospitalized and in an oxygen tent (don't know if they use that anymore). Modern medicine really is a miracle. That poor family, so devastating.

Such beautiful little stones. But heartbreaking. Thank you for preserving them so respectfully.

May this child’s memory be a blessing

I'm so happy you look after these head stones, especially the children's ones.. 🥺♥️

I saw the other short for Frank. I feel so bad for that family even though they are all probably long gone by now. I can't imagine that mothers grief of losing two sons.

So beautiful!! May God bless you!❤

It"s always sad when a baby or young child dies. 🙏 RIP.

Is this baby Frank's brother from the other video? How sad for their parents. ❤ I am so grateful that we now have a whooping cough vaccination that protects babies from dying of the disease.

It is! On the right hand side is little Frank

I’ve been doing this same cleaning of infant headstones. Really tugs at your heart to realize the sadness behind them. Happy I can at least have their headstone looking presentable. Thanks for doing this too.

My grandmother had a baby brother die of this back in the 40s. She was older and had it as well but survived. I chose to get the whooping cough vaccine after my 2nd daughter as it was going around horribly that year. Poor baby...I can't imagine. My grandma always has a sadness in her eyes as she talks about her baby brother...❤

I had whooping cough as a baby…one night I coughed until I started having a seizure,as my airway blocked…my mom held me upside down and whacked my back until the blockage of phlegm came out and I started to breath again….glad I don’t remember going through it

❤️ Such a beautiful act of love this is! My Mom instilled in me the importance of taking care of our loved one’s graves, and now we take care of hers with as much love as she showed all her life. My parents, two siblings and my son are all very close together in the cemetery. Btw, my son was delivered stillborn 90 years to the day after baby Clyde passed away 😔💐👼🏼

Poor Clyde ❤ I had whooping-cough when I was a baby too, had to spend a long time in hospital

Yaptığın iyilik çok zarif ve anlamlı bunu yaptığın için sonsuz tesekkurler.

RIP darling poppet....you've been remembered xx

The respect he didn’t stand on the grave

🥺 how heartbreaking. But the stone turned out so bright and beautiful 🙏 just as baby Clyde his family deserves 🙌

Absolutely beautiful. What love and dedication.

Had whooping cough as a four year old. It changed by cough sound forever and I survived but other kids died. Around 1948. When I had my kids and they were getting their immunizations I was forever grateful they wouldn’t get it, along with many other diseases. That people choose not to get immunizations for their kids simply blows my mind. Wish I could transport them back to a time when the fear was real because everyone knew families who had a Clyde or who ended up in an iron lung because of polio.

Thank you for caring 💕

Thank you for your loving care of these memorials to someone's family.

The grave now looks so clean and innocent like the baby. Ty for bringing the baby backs it's dignity and not forgotten. RIP little one❤😅

Awww ❤❤❤❤❤ very sweetie pie of that baby's dayton

Imagine having to see your child go through that and have nothing you can do to help them? ESP back then. There was literally nothing to do. How horrible that must have been. As a mother, this struck a different nerve for me. Poor baby. And my heart goes out to his mother. Watching your child endure that and feel helpless is one of the worst feelings.

May little Clyde rest in peace!!!

So very touching, the shape of the headstone is of a ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 heart. ❤The small infant was very well loved, and tragedy 😢 💔 💙 happened to be the one 💔 😢 💙 never fair to anyone. Beautifully 😍 cleaned up for a long 👌 time ❤😊❤😊❤❤❤❤

What a sad story 😢 I had whooping cough as a child, although it seems like a 100 years ago now I still remember how terrifying it feels when you can't catch your breath. 🫁 I was only 3 years old and according to my doctor shouldn't have survived as I had it so bad. My mother said she was terrified too. It's scary to think that it's still around to this day. 😞

When I was a 3 week old baby in the 80s, I nearly died from whooping cough. I ended up in the hospital in quarantine. I was there for a while. My mom told me about it when i was a teen. I'm sad for this little one that succumbed to the disease. 😢

It’s great to see someone caring for the generations that have been and gone in crisis

My aunts mother was a Dayton, out of Topeka... i loved her she seemed so old to me when i was smal, i an guessing she was born between 1900, and 1913 un sure. She was always so sweet to me.

❤ my heart goes out to anyone who takes the time to clean the tombstone. However I do believe that the cemetery should take time to do this in honor of these loved ones

I absolutly love the work that you do to honor the people that have gone before us .when i was younger i used to take rubbings of the unusual tomb stones . thank you

Thank You So Much , It Means Allot When Our Lovwd Ones Are Taken Care Of.Shows Allot Of Respect❤

Rest in peace baby clyde.😢

he will meet you in the spirit world and thank you ❤❤

❤❤❤❤I’m so sorry I’m praying 🙏 you and your family deserve the world Rest In Peace little baby ❤❤😢😢

Even parents and grandparents should be vaccinated against whooping cough (percussis) to help protect such infants.

That's wonderful to keep them up❤

❤

My mother (90 yrs.) and her 3 older sisters all suffered from measles, mumps, whooping cough but they all were lucky and lived to have children, grandchildren, great grandchildren. I'm a proponent of long tested vaccines that we were given so we didn't have to suffer like my mother or little Clyde.

Beautiful, what did you use to get it so clean?

Really doing great job

What a difference you made! I was just saying that i need to do my brothers head stone but i didnt know what would work. Btw... my brothers name is John "J" Clyde and he was 18. Ive always loved the name Clyde. Thank you for doing this!

Great work on cleaning that one up. I cleaned a smaller family plot years ago when I was going for my Eagle Scout. There were 2 headstones for children that died in youth

This real?? If so it's amazing

poor mother :(

We should be thankful that we no longer have the worry of losing a child to whooping cough due to modern immunisations.

The poor mother - I’m so glad for vaccinations available today. People who don’t vaccinate their children against preventable diseases such as whooping cough don’t understand the agony of watching your infant dying, struggling to breathe.

Beautiful 😊😊😊

Looks great. What do you use on the stone to clean it up

Frank is a brother of Clyde Dayton that died at the age of 1 month and 12 days because of a strange cough that is called "whooping cough" and then Clyde just died at july 12, 1909 it is so sad for their family to lose some of their kids in just a very young age god bless them ❤❤

How beautiful 😍❤️

Lovely ❤

I had whooping cough I almost died i was 6 weeks old they just came out with a new medication saved my life that was 1950

My older sister died when she was 1 day old. She would be 69. I wish I could of known her. Some day❤

That's sad and beautiful

Where did you get your brush. It looks comfortable to hold.

That’s why we have Vaccines for children…..to save the babies to young to get vaccinated!

Thank you

1 in 5 pregnancies is still lost to miscarriages. We used to lose most of our kids too. The amount of suffering never seems to get less... kinda like how our work week is still what it was 2000 years ago, actually. Humans just seem - stuck

Good job brother 👍 nice 😊

Wirklich sehr schön, wie du die Grabsteine vom Dreck befreien tust. In Deutschland werden Gräber nach 25 Jahren entfernt.
