It's getting late in the day and shadows are descending on North Braddock's Monongahela Cemetery -- making the place feel slightly more eerie than usual. But Vince Ciaramella doesn't mind. He's there for a good reason. He's there to shed some light on a small corner of the grassy darkness.
Ciaramella, with his wife, Erika, and 7-year-old son, Enzo, takes out a map of Monongahela and begins looking around, measuring what he sees on the paper to what's right in front of him. The city of Pittsburgh lies sprawled out in the background. He finds where he should be looking and peeks up to see a flag planted into a speck of land in between a few other gravestones.
There it is. That's the spot.
There's no marker (yet), but laid to rest under the dirt is former Black baseball player and successful local businessman Ernest "Pud" Gooden. The infielder once played for the historic Pittsburgh Keystones and faced off against the great Rube Foster. Ciaramella will work to have his gravestone put in by Memorial Day Weekend. It will be the first of many more to come.
