An Italian Funeral
😀
An Italian woman was leaving a convenience store with her espresso when she noticed a most unusual Italian 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 Italian woman walking a dog on a leash.
Behind her, a short distance back were about 200 women walking single file.
The woman couldn't stand the curiosity.
She respectfully approached the Italian woman 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 an Italian funeral like this
Whose funeral is it?”
“My husband's.”
” What happened to him?”
😀
“He yelled at me and my dog attacked and killed him.”
She inquired further
“But who is in the second hearse?”
The Italian woman answered.
“My mother-in-law
She was trying to help my husband when the dog turned on her.”
A very poignant and touching moment of Italian sisterhood and silence passed between the two women…
“Can I borrow the dog?”
😀
The woman replied, “Get in line.”
