Jake, 86, has spent the last year visiting his wife’s grave every morning, bringing a rose from his garden. But when a summer drought left the earth dry, he couldn’t stand seeing it barren. So, he started watering the grass—a small act of devotion.
One day, he saw a grieving woman kneeling by her brother’s grave. Joseph was an Air Force soldier who passed in 2010. That encounter led Jake to add one more thing to his daily routine—caring for Joseph’s grave, too.
When Joseph’s family arrived, they were shocked to see the green, thriving grass around his resting place. A stranger had been honoring him all along. But to Jake, Joseph was no stranger. He spoke to him every day.
🌎 The world needs more love like this. Do you agree?
