A young widow’s weekly visits to her husband’s grave became a familiar sight at the cemetery. She would arrive, water the flowers, and pay her respects, but always turned her back as she left. This peculiar behavior caught the attention of a curious stranger, who couldn’t resist approaching her one day.
The stranger, impressed by the widow’s dedication, initiated a conversation. “You show great respect for your late husband,” he said. “I think it’s lovely that you don’t turn around when you leave.” The widow’s response, however, left him stunned.
She looked him straight in the eye and said, “My husband used to say I had a backside that could raise the dead from their graves. I’d rather not take any chances.” The stranger was left speechless, caught off guard by the widow’s quick wit and humor.
