Srangers Wept for abandoned motherless child at funeral
The highest funeral cost is always the death of the person involved. This is true if the death is that of a famous hero or the baby who has only breathed a few breaths.
Sometimes there is a bright side to Funerals. An abandoned baby was recently buried in New Zealand. The baby died just after birth. The mother has never been identified. Sad yes but there is a bright side. The child was given a proper funeral and burial. Strangers showed up respecting life and death and wept for the baby.
“Mourners who were total strangers wept openly for abandoned newborn baby Nicholas as his tiny casket was lowered into the ground.
It was 10 weeks since his body was discovered and the minister who conducted a moving funeral service pleaded with Nicholas’s mother to come forward and seek help.
More than 40 people attended the public funeral for Nicholas on Thursday, whose body was discovered on the conveyor belt of a rubbish tip at Spring Farm near Narellan, in Sydney’s southwestern outskirts, on February 11.”
Compassion, it works.
Some comments from the ceremony:
“I just felt that he needed someone. Even though I didn’t know him I just wanted to show him someone cares,” Hayes says.
“The poor little thing never got a hug or a kiss. It’s good to see there’s so many people out there that care.”
