Cowboys don't cry

This sad story comes from Yvette:

Recently she was driving through to one of the service centres of Yabonga with a colleague when they happened upon a man running toward Jooste Hospital pushing a wheelbarrow. In the wheelbarrow, they could see someone covered by a blanket. They stopped to offer assistance but by the time they had turned around and met up with the man again, staff from the hospital - who must have been alerted by someone else - had already arrived and were helping out.

Yvette’s colleague found this incident sad and wept openly.

He then confessed that he used to work for an undertaker where he was also a driver, ferrying coffins between churches and graveyards. It was a well-paid job, which he was sad to lose. Apparently he was asked to leave because he would cry at the funerals. He found them terribly sad, even though he did not know the person being buried.

I guess that wouldn’t work… the undertaker crying…
