Ramon Rondon burial record | The Hart Island Project

SAD BUT TRUE
She was sitting at home alone listening to the oldies when a song came on, that took her back to the pass The song made her feel so sad. A thought came to her mind of a love she once had, A memory that she had block out a long time ago. Tears came from her eyes as the memories flash though her mind. They were young and so much in love but something happen that was not under their control and they had to part, for a long time she wonder about him and waited for him to come back, a baby boy was born she name him after him, He never saw or even knew of him, No goodbyes were ever said. Then one day she heard he passed away, she was so sorry she wished she could've seen him one more time Someone told her he ask about her a long time ago but by then she had move on. He left her many sweet memories so sweet that they hurt her to remember. The baby boy now a man, she grew old and her husband had pass away too. She went to an old friend that knew him and ask where was he buried at she wanted to take him some flowers, but the friend told her he was buried in Hart island (potter field), she ask what did he die of, and the friend told her he die sitting up in the L train The cause of death was unknown it was on a news report I read, They thought he was sleeping, I guess that was his last stop you see he lost his mind he was mentally sick and lived in the streets he was homeless, no family claim his body he really didn't have much. His mother was his only family she pass away. That broke her heart she cried as she walk away feeling so hurt. So every year she goes back to the place where they met Jefferson park and places a rose on the bench where they first kiss. This is a true story I know because I'm the girl that was inlove with him a long time ago I knew him very well
