The strangeness of this real life happening put me in mind of the start of a Stephen King novel so naturally I couldn't leave it alone. A man who visited his father's grave frequently noticed that the grave next to his never had flowers or visitors,it was the grave of a man who died at 37 on Christmas day. He felt bad that the man had no visitors so he started bringing flowers for the stranger's grave on his visits. Eventually his curiosity got the better of him and he googled the man only to discover he had killed his wife and her parents then jumped in front of a train. Next he sought out the wife and parents resting place as he felt he should apologize to them. As he was going about his apology a woman asked why he was talking to the graves of her aunt and grandparents,he had no choice but to explain. The woman thought it was weird but sweet so he asked her if she wanted to get a drink,she said yes and they started seeing each other and after a couple of years got married. Is it just me or does this sound like the start of a novel?
