You been to a funeral?

I've been to a few, but I've only cried at one, it was my uncle Joe's funeral. I never met him, but he held me, when I was born. When he died, I felt that I had to come to his funeral, even though I never met him. His sister gave a great speech, and ended it by saying "I'm sure he loved you all", that statement hit me like an arrow into the heart. It took all of my power to keep the tears back. As she went on, I couldn't keep the tears back, and I cried. One of the priest's staff members was smiling at me, at the time, I had no idea why he was smiling, but I know now. He was smiling because uncle Joe was family, and I loved him, even though I didn't meet him, and I soaked the ground that he rested on with my tears. And I'm not ashamed of it
