A man was leaving a convenience store with his morning coffee...
...when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the
nearby cemetery.
A black hearse was followed by a second black hearse about 50 feet
behind the first one. Behind the second hearse was a solitary man
walking a dog on a leash. Behind him, a short distance back, were
about 200 men walking single file.
The man couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached the
man walking the dog and said, "I am so sorry for your loss, and this
may be a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like
this. Whose funeral is it?"
"My wife's."
''What happened to her?"
The man replied, "My dog attacked and killed her."
He inquired further, "But who is in the second hearse?"
The man answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her."
A very poignant and touching moment of brotherhood and silence, passed between the two men.
"Can I borrow the dog?"
The man replied, "Get in line."
