THIS STORY:
Here in Silver Plume, Colorado was a muchbeloved man from the mining days. His name Clifford Griffin. Clifford came from England, where he was raised. He became engaged, but his fiancée tragically and mysteriously died the night before their wedding. To escape the painful memories of his beloved, he moved to Colorado with his brother, and would become the owner of the "7:30 Mine".
Clifford spent a great deal of time near the entrance to the 7:30, which is located about 1,600 feet above the town of Silver Plume. Every evening he would sit near the edge of a nearby cliff and play his violin. The entire town could step outside and listen to his concerts.
One evening, after a particularly beautiful recital, the residents heard a gunshot. Assuming the worst, the miners of the 7:30 raced up the trail to the entrance, and were shocked at what they found.

The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upsidedown, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.
