And you, a man from an entirely different state, not only cleaned up that mess at the cost of your time and equipment, but recruited local firefighters to help. The biggest kudos to you!

34:00 when they said the line of mowers belonged to the Sheriffs department! Crazy... wonder who is supposed to do the upkeep at the cemetery. I know the one we frequent is kept up by county workers. If this isn't a private one, shame on whoever has forgotten it. And if it IS a private one someone needs to find out who should maintain it and restore that connection and task. Seems like it might have gotten lost in the system after the flooding but time to get it back in the system again and get some workers out there regularly to keep up what he started. It's a lot easier to maintain after a big clean up like this after all.

Respectful that a cemetery is a solemn and peaceful place , I was thinking maybe a few shrubs would soften it a little and maybe seats for relatives , if any , to sit and reflect our cemetery's in the UK , have trees and shrubs and it makes them so beautiful and peaceful.

Just watched the cleanup of this cemetery and being a genealogist I thought I would just add that this is the Johnson Fisher Cemetery in Port Sulfur, Louisiana. It can be found on Find A Grave and there are a few requests for photographs from this cemetery. Also, the GPS locations are missing for this cemetery. You do such a wonderful job. I would just suggest you carry a GPS locator and document the cemetery for Genealogy purposes, or report the cleanup to the local or state genealogical society so they can go and locate the cemetery properly and do a walk through. It is important to locate lost relatives. It should be the city's responsibility to take care of abandoned or neglected cemeteries.

i Hi Joe

I thank you for this, my family that passed (Grandparents, Aunt, Uncles, Cousin) in Pennsylvania didn't have anyone cleaning their graves. I live out of state and come back once a year. It had weeds 6 feet tall. I couple just like you spend there time and money to clean up a cemetery that they had no family in it. It's people like you that bring a little bit of sunshine into this world. God bless you, and your family.

There is a church just yards away with members who could take it upon themselves, without being asked, to clean that small cemetery. Kudos to the firemen who came out and helped. They have a lot of downtime (my son-in-law is a fireman) so it was really nice of them to step in and help. Thank you “Boring Channel” for all you do without being asked. We could use more citizens like you who don’t feel it is others’ jobs to help out.❤️

33:00 I love that despite the firemen suggesting to leave that trash pile alone, you went for whatever cleanup you could manage and I think by you repeatedly stepping in to clear more trash that was motivation for them to keep helping you for at least a while (FF, 33-39). Your efforts and interest certainly are motivating for others. Another 4 guys and maybe another 4 bags would be taken away, 20 minutes of work at a time could still make another serious dent in that pile...maybe they would come back idk.

This is my favourite of your videos thus far because 1) it honors the dead; and 2) the local firefighters came out to help, showing community spirit. I do wonder what happened with the person(s) responsible for maintaining this site. How could they let it get so bad? As for the stones themselves, they are not in good shape and need more care. I know this is beyond what you do, but someone should pain them and repair them. Lastly, I am impressed with your dedication, doing this in the rain, humid heat, with fire ants, dealing with garbage, etc. Good job!

I appreciate how precision and neat your clean-ups are. You’re not sloppy and you don’t leave it sloppy like some other lawn care people do on KZread. I like how you keep going over the grass until most everything is nothing but dust and dirt. I know that’s extra gas and effort but it makes all the difference in the final job. Even when you’re exhausted you still try to do it all right/correctly. Not half assed or sloppy.

Just melts my heart to see that there is people out there like yourself taking care of the Forgotten Cemeteries/ Graveyards. Great job.

Hi Joe good to meet you. Blessing to all of you

Wow. That was absolutely brilliant. Congratulations. I don’t have an award for you, but that was the best thing I’ve watched on my television in years. I actually cried. I was flipping between you and another American and his sons and then an Australian guy all day, because I found it helpful to have my headphones on so that I could feel that you guys were working so hard lawnmowing and I needed to pull my weight. I did a lot of cooking and cleaning. I was about to go to bed and this video popped up and it piqued my interest because I take my dog for a run to our town cemetery each day. The grass is mown short or non existent because it is in a big paddock on the edge of the bush. The dog can’t get grass seeds stuck in her and it is very quiet and pleasant. I just drive the roads between the graves and she runs and she has a few swims in a little dam in the paddock next door. I watch the swallows swoop over the dam catching insects and the family of Superb Fairy Wrens hopping around in the short native grass. It is the loveliest time of the day. When you gathered up all those old plastic flowers I was wishing that I was game to do that too, because they are awful things. One only needs to sit quietly in nature to see the beauty and serenity at a cemetery. I only lay natural things on “the ancestors” (😂) graves. Pomegranates, daffodils, rosemary, roses and other flowers all have special meaning to them and me. I’m Australian and I have definitely had a dose of culture shock through your channel. I’m pretty proud to think that that would not happen here. Now I understand you so much better, because although that attitude exists everywhere I didn’t think that Americans would be so selfish as to not mow their neighbour’s nature strip especially men in service as such. Yet it exists here in Australia too. I’m not accustomed to it where I live. Most people would mow two or three houses down if needs be. Anyway fantastic video. Very, very powerful and the sea level stuff was fascinating. There was a barge going through at the start of the video and my eyes were 😳. ps. The placement of the camera and those fireman sitting on those lawnmowers, with you working in the rain was absolutely cinematic genius, if it had not been actually happening.

I’ve now watched 3 of your cemetery cleanups Kevin and you are a credit to fellow humanity. I’m astounded that these towns let there cemetery get like this it shows no respect or pride in the place you live in or the people buried there.

The words gone but never forgotten are found on many headstones. These people laid at rest in this cemetery were unfortunately long forgotten, and it's heartbreaking. Thank you for what you did and continue to do. Thank you for making a difference and being a positive influence in this dark world. Matt. 5 :14-16

Looks like theres some flowers and things there. Now that its clipped up, maybe it will be easier for older folks to come and visit the graveside. Its hard to get in with all that tall grass

Perhaps everyone that cared, are long gone now. Apart from it being a place for them to rest. It's more of a place for family and friends to pay their respects. Don't forget these areas have had some terrible, natural disasters over the years. Their souls have long departed this world.🌻

After a few years of watching your videos I'm still amazed at your willingness to do what you do out of the kindness of your heart. I pray the surrounding community will take up the sword and keep this burial place as nice as you have made it. Great work Juggernaut!

It's 4:23 p.m. here in Texas. I'm impressed with how you helped motivate the guys at the cemetery with picking up the trash. There was a boat load there! I enjoy your videos!

You are someone who has such a loving and giving heart and spirit. You are a shining example of a Christian who lives his faith through his work and dedication to those who need a helping hand . Bless you, Kevin.

That electrical box at 47:18 is wide open. Even if the power to it is shut off, it should still be closed and locked.

Thank you for doing that, it's so sad to see cemeteries become overgrown and unloved over the years. Seems once the immediate family of the people buried in a cemetery move away or pass on, then there is no one left who feels the need to be sure these places are kept up. One day this will be all of us. I happen to be a cemetery nut and love to visit old ones and just wander around and read the stones. I will talk to the people as if they are right there listening. So much of our history is preserved in the info found at cemeteries and we really need to respect them and take care of them. No one much seems to have that level of respect these days. Sad really. Im not too far from this locale, in Beaumont, Tx. Less than an hour west of Louisiana on IH 10. Yet most all of our graves are in ground and not so many above ground like there. You are a good man, you will be rewarded for deeds such as this. Though I know you dont do it for that, but it comes with the territory anyway. Again, thank you and big heart hugs to you and yours. Hope you enjoyed your shrimp, they are sum kinda good, no matter how you cook them. Have a great weekend, I will check out more of your channel now. 🤠❤🙏

I also talk to them. Two of my siblings and I recently went to cemeteries where family members are buried that we had never met. Some of those family members were born as long ago as 1777! I told one such family member that he would not recognize the world we live in now.

I am positive that I have been to that little cemetery years ago....so sad seeing the piles of trash and rubble piled up on the resting places of people's loved ones. Another great job. 👍

The surrounding area should be embarrassed that someone from out of state had to be the one that cleaned their mess up. Thank you so much from my state of Louisiana for doing this clean up. Now let's hope they have enough pride to keep it this way. Thank you again.

It is heartbreaking and disgusting that any community would allow a cemetery to be used as a dump site. No maintenance for the graves, and no respect for anyone buried in this location. The most upsetting is the veterans who fought for our freedom. My Deepest thanks to you for cleaning up this dreadful site.

Its an independent cemetery. One should not be so quick to judge especially given Louisiana has some very interesting laws regarding their cemeteries and hurricanes/floods continuously wrecking havoc on them. It seems every time they experience a bad hurricane the community has to do the best they can with whomever is left (many are forced to evacuate and relocate other parts of the country) to maintain the cemeteries until someone from the family /appointed individual can return to do it.

At first I thought it was debris from years of cleaning the graves and not hauling it away but I think it was a dump site once the top layer was removed. Construction debris. If that's the case, that's low down!

Cool to see the Fire Dept. getting involved! Maybe a local contractor could step up & clean out that pile. Who knows, there may be someone under there. Since you did most of the hard work, maybe a landscaper there could give something back to their community by taking over & just maintaining it?

Kevin must sleep well at night. Not just from physical work but gaining mental peace! He has a good heart. Thanks!

I really appreciate you doing all of that back breaking work for those folks. A lot of times there isn't any family left to clean these graves. Thank you

This whole team effort is beautiful to see and inspiring. Thank you all for your kindness and care for the deceased.

I watched these videos all night, and the loving care you and your family put in to your work is awesome. Your family are a gift from God. And teaching your daughter the history of each stone you cleaned was so touching. God Bless you and your Precious family and congratulations on your new baby boy. Martha Rowley Desmoines, Iowa ❤

I'd love to see a part 2 where the gravestones are pressure washed. This was a beautiful thing to see. Mad respect.

It just knocks me out to witness your generosity in time and effort, sweat and muscle. Not to mention the expense. I hope people in the areas you've served will pick up where you left off and provide the care these places deserve.

That pile of garbage must have been there a long time. Too bad no one else in that town would have noticed that and cleaned it up. You've done a great job! Hopefully in the future those firemen will keep an eye on it?

That poor cemetery definitely needed your personal touch. Happy to see the firemen helping you out.

So nice to see you cleaning up that little Cemetary! So many get neglected when families die off. You always do a thoughtful and careful job! Grass has been growing so fast this Spring in Ohio. Now that I am 75, it is hard for me to pay $70 for the twice a month lawn cuts. I know God will bless you for your generous help for these ageist people and hallowed grounds. Thanks ! For all you do ! tms poet Ohio 4/24/23

Just when I think I’m losing hope in humanity I see this video. I’m so impressed by your compassion. How wonderful was that! Those firefighters coming in to help as well….wow. God bless you all.

Hello ! Nice patriotic job ! 🎼You're working in the the rain🎶what a glorious feeling🎵you're happy again😃 Best wishes to you, your family and Jo for 2023 🎀 Phil. Peace.

You did a beautiful job on the veterans’ resting place, while showing them great respect. I am deeply offended that some miscreant left that pile of garbage in the middle of the middle of the cemetery and equally offended that the township hasn’t cleaned it up. You are such a good man. Thank you.

So much admiration for your devotion to helping those in need and showing so much respect to clean an old cemetery that had been trashed and neglected. And you had to deal with Louisiana rain, too! God is smiling on you! 😇

You kept on, even while being bitten. You sir, are a trooper.

So thankful to you for cleaning up the cemetery. And a special shout out to the Fire Fighters for their help! The town needs to find an organization to maintain the cemetery now!!

I don't know if that's a family cemetery, but if so they're responsible for keep up. I think it's admirable of you to do this. You are truly a good man.

Amazing job!! Finished in the rain!! You go above and beyond! What a kind soul you are. And even asking the firemen if they knew of anyone that needed any help in the area. So kind and thoughtful.

I sincerely applaud you for taking care of the cemeteries, this is the 2nd clean up of a cemetery that I have watched from you. I'm somewhat puzzled why the church doesn't take care of the cemetery and put in a low fence.

I love that you were in Louisiana! So sad you had to clean up a neglected grave yard. I, too, hate that there are piles of trash. I expect more from my people, my home state. May God continue to bless your work.

Greetings from Australia. I agree with all the positive comments you have received, you and your family are an inspiration to us all. You work long, hard hours and I am sure you could earn an income doing an easier job, but you choose to do the arduous jobs others do not want to do. Bless you. ❤

I think it’s remarkable that you took it upon yourself to clean up the cemetery in respect for those who are laid to rest there. Though they may be forgotten, they should still be respected and you did that and inspired the firefighters to do the same. I hope people who visit that site will take a little bit of that trash away every time they visit. What probably took years to accumulate, can be removed each time to restore dignity to whatever is underneath the pile. Kudos to you and kudos to the firefighters! Great job, men!

You need to post a list of all your unusual mowing jobs you’ve done.

Thank you for honoring the souls buried here in this graveyard. Through rain or shine you get the job done. Thanks to those wonderful firemen that came out and helped you. That was an awesome thing for them to do. They didn’t mind getting their hands dirty. Thanks for all you do Kevin. I hope your new year will be filled with blessings and happiness for your whole family. God bless and stay safe. ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🌟🌟🌟👍👍❤️

I've never seen a cemetery like that. Big plots of concrete. You do the kindest projects. You're the man.

What a great job you did on the cemetery. I wish the community would keep it like you left it today. Hey Joe, have a wonderful day. 😊

Watching from Suffolk UK, loved this video. The fact that you gave your time to clean up an overgrown cemetary shows us all just how kind you are. Good Luck to you in 2023.

I just love when somebody cleans up a graveyard is so many of them look horrible it looks great and hello Joe keep eating those shrimp they're good for you that's what keeps you so pretty

Here’s a man from another state cleaning up. Mowing and just plain caring. Although it’s commendable that the fireman came to helped, you did have to go and ask. Too bad the community it self doesn’t take more pride. That’s why we love our Kevin ❤️✝️🇺🇸👍🏼 Ya know I saw that EMS SIGN Raising To the Challenge and thought….Riiiiiight 🤦🏼‍♀️

I have watched this video several times and read the comments. It is sad that neighbors no longer help to make things better for each other. You always do a great job!

The world needs more good, kind, God loving people in this world like you and the rest of your family! Awesome job Kevin! 🥰 Hi Joe!

The cemetery looks 100% better thanks to you. And the firemen. Too bad you couldn’t have completely gotten rid of that trash heap. It really is an eyesore in the middle of that lovely old cemetery. Great job as usual Kevin!!(And Hi to Joe!!).

You’re BLESSED! Watching you is a great lesson of real human values, humility and sense of duty and purpose. Most people prefer to hangout in shopping malls but forget CEMETERIES are our future homes.

Wow, I salute you, sir. Even when the rain came, you still continued to clean the cemetery. You are most admirable. A TV reporter should have been there to film your great community service to show others so others can follow your great example at least. The family of those deceased should come forward to express their gratitude to you. And, maybe next time they visit their loved one, they should also clean even just the area of the plot where their dearly departed is.

looks great! Louisiana sauna. Joe thank you for giving The Man some shrimp.

My sister worked tirelessly for 20 years organizing volunteers for the proper maintenance of the cemeteries in our county in New York State. She logged every grave and compiled a searchable online database!

Awesome job Kevin. You could tell you made Joe's day by stopping by. Hi Joe!

So awesome that the firefighters came and helped out. They probably were inspired by your selflessness. God bless you for all you do.

I love your cemetery clean ups, Kevin. I always feel bad for those departed souls who lie in overgrown plots, neglected and disregarded. I often clean up one or two overgrown headstones when I visit my Mom & Dad, it just seems like the thing to do

I want to thank you and the firemen for cleaning the cemetery. Showing respect to people that have passed through before us. god is smiling down on the four of you.
