When Ted was putting flowers on his Grandmother's grave he noticed a man,
very distraught, in front of a tombstone several yards away. The man was on
his knees, hands tightly clasped in front of him, rocking back and forth,
head tilted upward to heaven, tears streaming down his cheeks, moaning
softly, "Why did you die? Why did you die?" Over and over again.
Ted was overcome with emotion at this sight and went over to the poor man to
try and console him. "Why did you die? Why did you die?" bellowed the man
again and again. Ted gently put his arm around the man and half whispered to
him, "My Grandmother is buried just over there. Is a loved one of yours
buried here?"
"No," sniffled the man, "It's my wife's first husband."
