Episode 173 - Crowning Glory Part 2: Maurice Breen in Dayton Ohio's Calvary Cemetery

Jennie and Dianne return to Dayton Ohio's Calvary Cemetery, this time to visit the grave of Maurice Breen, an Irish immigrant who spent some of his early years in America helping those who were enslaved to escape to freedom on the Underground Railroad. Maurice Breen was a man who worked hard but always made the best of life. He lived through plenty of hardships, but he didn’t let them prevent him from wearing a smile, cracking a joke, and helping those in need. This is Maurice Breen's story but it is also the story of so many others who have come to America seeking to improve their lot in life, to secure employment, food, and better futures for themselves and their children.
