"THE FUNERAL PROCESSION"
A woman was leaving a convenience store with her morning coffee when she noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery.
A long black hearse was followed by a second long black hearse about 50
feet behind the first one.
Behind the second hearse was a solitary woman walking a pit bull on a leash.
Behind her, a short distance back, were about 200 women walking single file.
The woman couldn't contain her curiosity. She respectfully approached the woman walking the dog and said, "I am so sorry for your loss, and I know this is a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?"
"My husband's."
"What happened to him?"
The woman replied, "My dog attacked and killed him."
The woman inquired further, "I'm so very sorry, but, may I ask who is in the second hearse?"
The woman answered, "My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my husband when the dog turned on her, too."
A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two women, then the first woman asked, "Can I borrow the dog?"
The widow replied, "Get in line."
